    I am currently working on adding our APC rack PDU's. I am having trouble with the models which use port sharing. Basically the network attached PDU is the host and the next three are "daisy chained" via the APC NPS ports. Access to them is via SNMP is through the host IP address and you utilize the APC rpdu2 mibs. My question is what is the process for adding the NPS attached PDU's. I have tried creating them as separate nodes and used the host pdu as a source node in the dci but the return is always empty. The same dci from the host dci returns the correct value. Any help would be appreciated. Thank You.

By the way ... I have found NetXMS to be a fantastic product. I am primarily using it as a DCIM product and it definitely fills the needs quite well. I have used other open source and paid DCIM products and none have truly met all the features requirements I have been looking for. NetXMS does .... Great product ...

Hi,

try to check trusted nodes settings in server configuration and turn off "check trusted nodes" if it is on. This is likely issue for sources DCIs not working.

Best regards,

Victor,

     I found the issue to be when I created the rack PDU's that are downstream of the host I created them as unmanaged. Once I set them to managed everything worked as designed. Thanks ...
