SNMP following Hot Fix 6

HI,

 

any ideas what has changed in hotfix 6.

 

I have two F5 devices one using HF4 and one using HF6.

 

The HF4 returns. snmpwalk -v2c -csomeoldcrapsnmpstring 172.x.x.4 -On .1.3.6.1.4.1.3375.2.1.1.2.1.45.0 .1.3.6.1.4.1.3375.2.1.1.2.1.45.0 = Counter64: 313129280

 

the HF6 returns. snmpwalk -v2c -csomeoldcrapsnmpstring 172.x.x.3 -On .1.3.6.1.4.1.3375.2.1.1.2.1.45.0 .1.3.6.1.4.1.3375.2.1.1.2.1.45.0 = Counter64: 0

 

I am querying Total Memory and Used Memory.

 

any ideas?

    Hello Andrew,

     

    If you are talking about 11.6.0 HF6, we also noticed the same issue for the memory stats. It looks like a bug. I'm currently testing with latest version to see if the issue persist

    Hi

     

    had somehow this issue with 11.6 HF6.. F5 support gave us the following workaround: "Use sysStatMemoryUsedKb instead of sysStatMemoryUsed"

     

    APM apmPaStatCurrentActiveSessions also returns 0. We got that fixed with an EngHF on top of HF6.

    Hello,

    Sounds like it's not a bug : 

    sysStatMemoryUsed OBJECT-TYPE
        SYNTAX Counter64
        MAX-ACCESS read-only
        STATUS   deprecated
        DESCRIPTION
                "Deprecated! Replaced by sysStatMemoryUsedKb.
                The memory in use in bytes for TMM (Traffic Management Module)."
        ::= { sysGlobalStat 45 }
