RE: Service polling issues

Hi,
 
yes, you can run nxagentd on the management server and poll remote
service. Actually, it's a default configuration for service poller.
Don't forget to load port checker subagent by adding
 
SubAgent = <your_netxms_lib_dir>/libnsm_portCheck.so
 
line to your nxagentd.conf.
 
Best regards,
Victor

Tnx for the info,

Would it be possible to run nxagentd on the server that runs netxmsd and
use that to poll the remote ssh service ? Or this there no other way
then to install the nxagent on the machine itself ?

Hi,

AFAIK You need service checker subagent to be complied and added into
configuration of agent (if guys didn't implement it as part of core
agent yet).

At least in our environments only nodes with "Service Checker" subagent
do the service polls.

Hi,

I have installed netxmsd on a debain sarge box and i am using the netxms
console on windows xp to configure it. Monitoring through smnp seems to
work fine. But adding services to a node (ssh for example) always
results in status unknown, doing a manual poll -> status on the node
shows:

Statring status poll on network service ssh
current status is unknown
polling service from node xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
unable to check service status due to agent or communication error
finished status poll on network service ssh

Manually connecting to the ssh server from the monitor server works, the
ssh server runs on port 8022 but i have updated this in the service
TCP/UDP port settings as well

Any clues what i'm doing wrong ?

Regards,

Luc
