 Description   

Hello,

due a SNMP-"Bug" or better the 32bit limitations the uptime is reset after 497days, and we got messages the server has been restarted. It would be very nice if you can adjust them to something like if last =497days and now 0days its fire not the trigger

This issue is very annoying and so many people are looking for work around and solution,

It would be nice even if you can come up with an expression for the trigger to ignore the change from 479 days to 0 in the meantime you fix the issue on the software.

 

Thank you

We've amended our trigger to only alert if any of the last 10 values don't exceed 497 days

I added 1.3.6.1.6.3.10.2.1.3.0 item for snmpEngineTime and made a trigger for 2 items :
item 1:
system.hw.uptime[hrSystemUptime.0]
oid:
1.3.6.1.2.1.25.1.1.0
item 2
system.uptime[snmpEngineTime.0]
oid
1.3.6.1.6.3.10.2.1.3.0
Trigger
Expression:
last(/System Uptime - IT/system.hw.uptime[hrSystemUptime.0])<10m and last(/System Uptime - IT/system.uptime[snmpEngineTime.0])<10m
and it is working fine but not all devices support snmpEngineTime oid
