hpasm failing SNMP queries to localhost

[carlivar]

We have a few Linux hosts (CentOS 5.2) with the hpasm software installed. I noticed snmpd was getting a lot of connections from localhost, so I investigated further.

This is the traffic:

20:55:06.958253 IP 127.0.0.1.40245 > 127.0.0.1.snmp: C=private GetRequest(35) .1.3.6.1.4.1.232.18.1.3.0[|snmp]
20:55:06.958986 IP 127.0.0.1.snmp > 127.0.0.1.40245: C=private GetResponse(31) noSuchName@1 .1.3.6.1.4.1.232.18.1.3.0=

Basically, every 15 seconds something in hpasm is trying to query the above SNMP OID which does not exist.

Indeed, my snmpd does not have anything in that range of SNMP OIDs. snmpwalk jumps over the 232.18 range:

SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.232.16.1.1.0 = INTEGER: 1
SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.232.16.1.2.0 = INTEGER: 27
SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.232.16.1.3.0 = INTEGER: 2
SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.232.23.1.1.0 = INTEGER: 1
SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.232.23.1.2.0 = INTEGER: 1
SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.232.23.1.3.0 = INTEGER: 1
SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.232.23.2.1.4.1.0 = INTEGER: 30
SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.232.23.2.1.4.2.0 = INTEGER: 30008
SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.232.23.2.1.4.3.0 = INTEGER: 1223956261
SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.232.23.2.1.4.4.0 = INTEGER: 148

The SNMP OID it seems to try to query is "cpqNicMibCondition".

Can anyone shed any light on this? Thanks very much.

I solved it myself. Must have been a bug in the 7.9 version of hpasm I had installed. I went to 8.1 and the OIDs exist now.
