NetXMS Support Forum

We have nodes (HPserver) with DCIs only on the node itself but with Proxy nodes (iLO). Now Instance discovery is not working in DCIs (SNMP) on nodes (HPserver) with Proxy nodes (iLO). No instances are generated (I started configuration polls). The DCI is a simple SNMP one and the discovery is simple SNMP-Walk-OID on the same OID with no filtering script.
Is instance discovery not possible with Proxy nodes on the DCI?

When I delete DCIs from templates (not from nodes) I always get errors like this:

Critical SYS_DB_QUERY_FAILED Database query failed (Query: DELETE FROM idata_1174 WHERE item_id=1354; Error: 42P01 ERROR:  relation "idata_1174" does not exist
LINE 1: DELETE FROM idata_1174 WHERE item_id=1354
Critical SYS_DB_QUERY_FAILED Database query failed (Query: DELETE FROM idata_384 WHERE item_id=526; Error: 42P01 ERROR:  relation "idata_384" does not exist

It's for older and for newly created DCIs in templates. NetXMS is V1.2.14.

Ok thanks for your information. Some people asked me why NetXMS still only supports IPV4.

I thought too that should be the normal behaviour. So I wait with the next image changes for V1.2.15. Thanks.

I know and I tried that before (topology polls). But the old link information stays on both switches for ever. So it's maybe a bug.

What is the plan for IPV6 support in NetXMS?

We changed the connection between two LLDP-capable switches:

First Switch1-Port7 connected to Switch2-Port1,
Then we changed to Switch1-Port2 connected to Switch2-Port8.

Now in [Object Details] - [Interfaces] of node Switch1 I can see Switch2 connected to Port 2 AND 7. the same MAC and the same IP-Addresse and Peer Discovery on both interfaces = LLDP. The same on Switch2.
When I look at [Tools] - [Info] - [Topology Table (LLDP)] there is only the new connection.

Is there something like a Lease Time for LLDP information?

It would be helpfull to change the image file (png) of an existing Image in the image library. So no nodes must be reconfigured. If you choose 'edit' of an image in image library you can choose another image file but on 'Ok' you get the error message "Image xy in Network Objects category already exists."

Hi Victor

Thank's for the fast help. Now it starts. Then I tested the new function with the new parameter of Event SYS_NODE_UP with a filter script ($1 != 1). Works exactly like expected! That will help me a lot! Now I revert to V1.2.14 again. For production I will wait for V1.2.15

you mean?:
nxdbmgr -X upgrade? (that results in an endless loop)
i stopped this and then: nxdbmgr batch script.sql (where I copied the two lines in)
But netxmsd doesn't start

Thanks. I tried V1.2.15-M1. Compile ok, but in DB upgrading from version 321 to 322:
SQL query failed (42601 ERROR:  syntax error at or near "ALTERT"
LINE 1: ALTER TABLE users ALTERT COLUMN system_access TYPE bigint
                          ^):
ALTER TABLE users ALTERT COLUMN system_access TYPE bigint

ok. The documentation is still one of the weakest points of NetXMS. I'm not fit enough on NetXMS otherwise I would help with documentation.

Thanks for the detailed explanation. At the moment I don't have such a case. But maybe later. Is it already in documentation?

In Node Properties on register 'Communications' is an option 'This is address of remote management node'.
What is this for. I didn't found it in the documentation. And I can't remember it was there before.

Thanks

Wow, thank's.
Is it possible to allready have the changed source file for tests? (as I allways compile from sources on Linux x64)

Thank's
Dani
