Error description

  • This APAR is only applicable when PI45028/UI35411 is applied
    due to changes in the ioctl structure introduced for SMC-D.
    
    SNMP TCP/IP subagent issues message EZZ3210I when trying to
    obtain interface counter data.
    
    The interface index value in the message is incorrect. It may
    be zero or a negative number.
    
    EZZ3210I SNMP subagent: interface index 0 not found in SNMP
    interfaces table.
    
    EZZ3210I SNMP subagent: interface index -797857892 not found in
    SNMP interfaces table.
    
    The SNMP subagent was unable to match interface counter data
    to the set of interfaces defined for the TCP/IP stack.
    

Local fix

  • The EZZ3210I message is only issued to the console if the
    syslog daemon is not started.  To stop the console messages
    you can do the following:
    
    -Stop the TCP/IP subagent by issuing the VARY TCPIP,,OBEYFILE
    command with a profile data set that contains this statement:
    SACONFIG DISABLED.
    
    -Start the Syslog Daemon.
    
    -Restart the TCP/IP subagent by issuing the VARY TCPIP,,OBEYFILE
    command with a profile data set that contains the SACONFIG
    statement from your initial profile.
    
    By using the VARY TCPIP,,OBEYFILE command, you can stop and
    restart the subagent without stopping your TCP/IP stack.
    
    If you don't need to run the TCP/IP subagent, you can just
    stop it as explained above.  You will also need to add the
    SACONFIG DISABLED profile statement to your initial profile
    data set.

    ****************************************************************
    This APAR is only applicable when PI45028/UI35411 is applied
    due to changes in the ioctl structure introduced for SMC-D.
    
    The SNMP TCP/IP subagent did not correctly process the interface
    counter data from the TCP/IP stack.  If the syslog daemon is not
    started then the EZZ3210I messages will be written to the
    console.  If the syslog daemon is started, then the EZZ3210I
    messages will only be written to the syslog daemon.  In both
    cases all the interface counter data supported by the SNMP
    TCP/IP subagent will be zero except for the IPv4 LOOPBACK
    interface.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The SNMP TCP/IP subagent has been updated to correctly process
    the interface counter data from the TCP/IP stack.
