RE: [nv-l] netmon won't start

Hi,
i have
the same /etc/snmpd.conf file on both server and also the same /usr/OV/conf
directorie...
what i
should check exactly then ?
Dominic
netmon
needs to be configured with the appropriate SNMP community name to be able to
talk to the snmpd agent that resides on the same box as itself.
The global default community name within
NetView's SNMP Configuration panel and the loopback community name in snmpd.conf
need to be the same. OR If not the global default, then you need to have an entry
(such as a specific entry) in NetView's SNMP Configuration for the NetView host
box where its community name matches the community name in the snmpd.conf
file.

Hello all,
i got a error when i copy the /usr/OV/conf dir.
from my production server to my pre-production netview
server when i ovstart my pre- production server i got
this
:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----
object manager name: netmon
behavior:
OVs_WELL_BEHAVED
state: FAILED
PID: 31714
last message: Can't talk to snmpd; see
/usr/OV/log/netmon.trace for info
exit status: -
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----
Cannot communicate with SNMP
Agent via loopback address (127.0.0.1); it is either not running or has been
configured with a community name different from that configured into Tivoli
NetView for this system. If a community name has been configured into the
SNMP Agent, that community name must be configured via xnmsnmpconf and
/usr/OV/conf/ovsnmp.conf for address 127.0.0.1 as well as for the hostname or
IP address of this system. Or, the /usr/OV/conf/snmpmib and
/usr/OV/conf/snmpmib.bin files are corrupted and need to be rebuilt using
the Maintain->Rebuild MIB binary file with installation MIB
defaults option in NetView configuration menu
any idea what can be wrong ?
thanks Dominic
