NetXMS Support Forum

After updating netxms, the service would not load.
i noticed the mysql.ddr file is missing in the /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/netxms/dbdrv directory.

I tried to reinstall Netxms with the command: 

    apt-get install netxms-server netxms-dbdrv-mysql 

This resulted in an error the netxms-dbdrv-mysql had no  installation candidate.

I then tried  netxms-dbdrv-mysql-dbg, this installed but did not work.

I tried building NetXMS on a new fresh server with the same results.

Not sure if the new compiled version is missing the mysql package?

I am looking to utilise a remote Agent which connects back to the NetXMS server via an agent tunnel, to discover active network devices/Map used IP addresses etc at the remote site.

After some investigating and research, I believe I have found previous requests for this feature a number of years ago, but no confirmation it has been released.

From my testing, I can see the Network discovery on the server looking for devices and although they see the MAC details via ARP (From the remote agent?), no ICMP or SNMP response is received. I assume this is because the ICMP/SNMP requests are not utilising the tunnel agent:

I have set the network discovery to utilise the remote agent but this fails.

If I manually add the node and address the proxy via this agent, the device communicates successfully and functions as expected.

Which leads me to believe currently it is not possible to utilise Network Discovery via a tunnelled agent, Is this correct?

If so, i see a great use case for this scenario, would it be possible to add to the development roadmap?

Alternatively, please can you point me in the correct direction.

Thank you!
