Re: Demand poll times out, but SNMP walk works.

["Leslie Clark" <lclark@us.ibm.com>]

Is it timing out at the very beginning of the demandpoll, or
is it showing the current status of interfaces, and then
failing on the first snmp request?

Does 'Monitor...MIB Values..System Info' time out, or work?

Regardless, I would do xnmsnmpconf and delete the
entry for that node, check for other entries for that node
and delete them as well, and then demandpoll it.  The
demandpoll should update it with the right entry. You are
right, what you say you are seeing does not make sense.

And.... get to 6.0.2, of course:)

We are using 6.01 and have one router that has an SNMP timeout on the
demand poll.

When I do an SNMP walk on the hostname and for all IP address everything is
OK.
When I do an xnmsnmpconf -resolve hostname / IP address  --- > I get the
correct community string & IP addresses.
When I to a TEST --> IP/TCP/SNMP  the results are OK

I've tried doing an xnmsnmpconf -delete hostname & IP address with
xnmsnmpconf -clearCache.

Any ideas as to why the demand poll would timeout?
