Hi
For your context: just increase the timeout or adjust the check intervals and the retry count in your monitoring system.
In general: I don't know why the retry option is even set for this check. In others this is missing. And yes, in terms of time, the check only makes one attempt. And I think that is enough. Checks should be done quickly. In my mind, I don't like to have to wait for the repetitions at this point.

Hi @SteScho, thanks for your prompt reply.
In general: My point about snmp retries is that in one run of the check there can be >10 snmp queries (depending on the number of storage partitions), and if one get lost then the whole check is failed (timeout). In the other hand I agree that checks should be done quickly, for sure 10 snmp retries is too much.
Our context: At the end I found out that our issue is not with lost snmp queries, but with a storage partition intermittently missing: i.e. when check_snmp_storage.pl runs, a partition disappears between get index_table and get of the storage values --> expected oids missing --> timeout. As a workaround we filtered the incriminated partition, as it is not an important one anyway.
You may close this issue.

Hi.
How often do you have that situation? If it helps, it would be conceivable to create an option for the repetitions which is set to 1 by default. That fits my opinion it should be quick, but it helps you in your special situation. And of course it maybe helpful to others, too.
On the other hand, this is a feature that is missing so far. The default of 1 does not change the check behavior, but the additional option can add value for cases like yours. Sounds good.
So feel free to create a PR - I will merge it to the code.
