Thanks, Mr.Gaillot.

Yes, we trigger the snmp notification with an external script.  From your response, I understand that the issue wouldn't occur with 1.1.14, as it wouldn't require the crm_mon process.  Is this understanding correct?

We have been given 1.1.10 as the supported version from RedHat.  If I raise a ticket to RedHat, would they be able to provide us a patch for 1.1.10?

Many thanks for your response.

Thanks,
Karthik.

On checking clusterlabs for list of known issues, we found this crm_mon memory leak issue.  Although not related, we think that there is some problem with the crm_mon process.

Are you using ClusterMon with Pacemaker's built-in SNMP capability, or
an external script that generates the SNMP trap?

If you're using the built-in capability, that has to be explicitly
enabled when Pacemaker is compiled. Many distributions (including RHEL)
do not enable it. Run "crm_mon --help"; if it shows a "-S" option, you
have it enabled, otherwise not.

If you're using an external script to generate the SNMP trap, please
post it (with any sensitive info taken out of course).

The ClusterMon resource will generate a crm_mon at regular intervals,
but it should exit quickly. It sounds like it's not exiting at all,
which is why you see this problem.

If you have a RHEL subscription, you can open a support ticket with Red
Hat. Note that stonith must be enabled before Red Hat (and many other
vendors) will support a cluster. Also, you should be able to "yum
update" to a much newer version of Pacemaker to get bugfixes, if you're
using RHEL 6 or 7.

FYI, the latest upstream Pacemaker has a new feature that will be in
1.1.14, allowing it to call an external notification script without
needing a ClusterMon resource.
