      Issue Status as of March 31, 2014

      ISSUE SUMMARY

      The current MIB file defining the MongoDB SNMP interface fails validation under smilint, a widely used tool for evaluating MIB correctness.

      USER IMPACT

      smilint validation failure means import of the MONGO-MIB.txt file may fail under some SNMP monitoring products.

      SOLUTION

      The MIB file was cleaned up to ensure compatibility with smilint and other tools under SNMPv2.

      WORKAROUNDS

      None.

      AFFECTED VERSIONS

      All recent production release versions up to 2.4.9 are affected.

      PATCHES

      The fix is included in the 2.4.10 production release and the 2.6.0-rc0 release candidate, which will evolve into the 2.6.0 production release.

      Original Description

      MIB (MONGO-MIB.txt) fails using validator:

      http://www.simpleweb.org/ietf/mibs/validate/

      There are some errors for the most tolerant severity level (1):

      Line Severity Problem
      109 1 syntax error, unexpected LOWERCASE_IDENTIFIER, expecting UPPERCASE_IDENTIFIER
      123 1 unknown object identifier label `serverTable'

      There are more errors when increasing the severity level (max is 6).
