    I have another log file entry that is repeating.  I suppose I can filter it but would rather correct the root problem:

    ipfd[2039]: LIBJSNMP_NS_LOG_WARNING: WARNING: Warning: Failed to connect to the agentx master agent (/var/agentx/master): Unknown host (/var/agentx/master) (No such file or directory)

    The platform is SRX300.  I have multiple units all reporting the same log message.
    I found the problem report attached on Juniper.Net.

    Running the most most recent Junos 21.1

    Hi Robert,

    Did you ever end up finding the root cause? I'm seeing this issue on one of my two SRX345's (both Junos 21.1R1 as well) but not the other. Like you stated we can filter it, but it would be nice to understand why we are receiving this message.

    I experienced the same issue. I opened a case with JTAC and was told the messages may be ignored and can be filtered out.

    It looks like i accidentally found a solution for this "problem". I'm not sure why this works but reinstalling the box via tftp method seems to fix it. When reinstalling it looks like it's necessary to have a working config (not the default one) on the device which will be automatically restored after reinstalling.

    This first happens to me while experimenting with a SRX300. While experimenting i broke some things and needed to have the box reinstalled. After that the message was gone. However, I did not think anything at first. But Yesterday i had to reinstall a SRX320 which also got this annoying message. The msg is now gone.

    This can't be a coincident. Maybe someone can verify this?
