Fping fails intermittently for some random junos devices after a partition extension / reboot

Dear All,

I cannot get trought this issue so a little help or suggestions would be appreciated here :slight_smile:

We’ve been performing a partition extension and a restart on one lnms server. All went well.

After this restart we couldn’t logged in again : a deactivation of Selinux (set to permissive mode) solved the issue.

However since then we observed some polling gaps and alerts devices down for few juniper devices (os junos, SRX300). After investigations, it seems there is no network nor devices issues.
What generate those gaps and alerts is that Fping failed intermittently.
What’s suprising is that it’s not happening for all devices but only for some junos

=> When trying to launch fping directly in cli, no losses seen
[librenms-1 log]# ‘/usr/sbin/fping’ ‘-e’ ‘-q’ ‘-c’ ‘4’ ‘-p’ ‘600’ ‘-t’ ‘600’ ‘XX.XX.XX.XX’
172.22.38.133 : xmt/rcv/%loss = 4/4/0%, min/avg/max = 4.41/5.65/6.41

=> with a permanent ping running for hours from the server : no packet loss at all.

losses are seen only in cron/polling logs from impacted devices
here is an excerpt when it happens (with IP replaced by XX)

We tried to deactivate Selinux completely but it did not improved the behavior.
