mgragentd should be running on all NetView Servers. If it is not running
at the other site, then either it died or they disabled it. mgragentd is
the daemon which makes the hot backup function possible. It registers with
snmpd as a smux peer and responds to SNMPGets from netmon. If you are
seeing hi CPU, then I would check to see if you have problems with snmpd or
with mgragentd connecting to snmpd (he will keep trying over and over again
if snmpd does not respond). He has a log you can look at
/usr/OV/log/mgragentd.log. If you have problems connecting to snmpd you
can always do an snmpd trace to see his side of it.

Subject: mgragentd consumming cpu cycles
Netview Server V5.0 , no clients or other manager stations.
What would cause mgragentd consuming 25-95% of cpu , most of the
time in the 90% region.
This is causing poor response on Netview User Interface.
Does this deamon runs all the time ? I checke on another system at
another site and it is not
running (this system is also a Netview Server).
