snmpwalk shows valid oid, but prtg and snmp tester fail (error # 223)

Votes:

0

I'm trying to monitor certain oids from our HP C3000 Blade.

If I walk the value, it returns ok: snmpwalk -v 2c -c public 192.168.40.2 1.3.6.1.4.1.232.22.2.3.1.1.1.5 iso.3.6.1.4.1.232.22.2.3.1.1.1.5.1 = STRING: "458032-B21"

When I search for the value in SNMP Tester or add a Custom OID sensor, I get the following error: No such instance (SNMP error # 223)

Any ideas? We really need to monitor some of these OIDs... Thanks!

What precise OID are you using? Please make sure it is 1.3.6.1.4.1.232.22.2.3.1.1.1.5.1.

Seeing as the result seems to be in a string format, have you tried using our SNMP Custom String sensor?

Yes, and that also gives the same snmp error 223.
