We have discovered that /var is filling up on a server due to files being written to by a process called mib2agt from script /usr/sbin/mib2agt
What is it and what can I do about it?
Thanks for your help!

Re: What is this process?
Hi,
The 'mib2agt' has had some memory leak bugs. Patch PHSS_23670 fixes them.

Hi Phil,
This is the SNMP Network Management MIB-2 SubAgent. If you don't want to use the SNMP on your hp box modify the SNMP_MIB2_START variable to 0 (this will prevent startup of this agent in the future). To shut this down right away do a /sbin/init.d/SnmpMib2 stop
Also there are other files you have to modify if you want to disable SNMP agents altogether. They are (in /etc/rc.config.d directory)
SnmpHpunix, SnmpMaster, SnmpMib2, SnmpTrpDst
-HTH
