RE: [NV-L] Linux nodes

James,
 
Thanks for your reply. I made exactly what you instructed, but couldn't
find the answer from the trace logs. What strange is that I found 32-bit
Linux machine has no problem while only 64-bit Linux machine has the
problem I described below. They are having exactly the same
configurations. Any suggestions?
 
regards,
David

        Discovery problems are always solved the same way. Get a netmon
trace.
        
        First, verify that you have entries in /usr/OV/conf/oid_to_type
and /usr/OV/conf/C/oid_to_sym for the sysObjectid that gets returned
when you do you snmpwalk. I don't believe that you level of NetView
provides any entries for SLES 9, so you have to add them. 
        MY SLES9 system returns "1.3.6.1.4.1.8072.3.2.10", so I have
        1.3.6.1.4.1.8072.3.2.10:Linux:Linux UCD-SNMP Agent:W 
        in oid_to_type and
        1.3.6.1.4.1.8072.3.2.10:Computer:Workstation # Linux
        in oid_to_sym
        
        Then edit your seed file and put your SLES9 nodes, by name or IP
address, at the top of the file as the first real entries after any
comments.
        Next, turn on the full netmon trace, 
        netmon -M -1
        and then reload the seed file
        netmon -y
        
        After a few minutes, examine the netmon.trace and look for your
IP addresses and names in the trace and see whether you can figure out
what's going on. Too confusing? Save the trace and call Support. Turn
the trace off with "netmon -M 0" so the file doesn't grow too large.

[NV-L] Linux nodes      
                

        Dear list,
        
        NV714, FP3 on Solaris.
        
        I have some Linux nodes (SUSE 9) which need to be monitored by
Netview. snmpwalk is OK, but cannot be discovered, or some discovered
but after a while interface deleted by Netview (but the node is not
deleted, thus showed blue in Netview, because no interface). I have
browsed the archive, but couldn't find the answer. Please help.
        
        Regards,
        David_______________________________________________
