Lots of failing updates for the last week(+)

22 May 2015

      Mojn guys
I see only FAILED updates for the last weeks - I've setup a simple check that counts the number of objects that failed and plots in a graph through Nagios. In the same script I notify if the number of successfully updated object equals zero. The reason for this is that I had (some years ago) a problem with NRTM dying on me and instead of logging in to the management console and run a "show dynamic", this workaround automatically gives me a warning if ex. NRTM is failing.

The last succeeded update was on the 6th of May.

This is what I see in the ripupdlogs since then:

It looks like the updates after serial 31153170 are broken somehow:

Does any of you see the same thing in your logs ? And does any of you have an idea about what's going wrong with the updates ?

Best regards,

Lots of failing updates for the last week(+)
