Re: [nv-l] Manage and Unmanage

[James Shanks <jshanks@us.ibm.com>]

What else can you tell us about these
routers?  How are they discovered?  Have you defined a loopback
address for them and put that in the seed file?  If a router has temporary
addresses on it, like HSRP, and you accidentally discover the device by
one of those then you might very well have problems like this.

Subject	[nv-l] Manage and Unmanage

NV 7.1.3 on Win2K
 
I am having an issue with objects that seem
to be managing and unmanaging themselves automatically....and continuously.
 Has anyone ever seen this before.  In dealing with this issue,
I have even completely dumped the entire database, rediscovered the network
with all the defaults set as far as discovery, polling, etc.  And
again today, I notice that some of the objects in the map.....specifically
two routers keep managing and unmanaging themselves.  When this happens,
the Netview program is almost unusable as it is performing the rediscover
or status of all the interfaces on those routers (each having around 140
Frame relay circuits). 
 
I know there is probably not enough information
in the description above, but I just wanted to see if anybody could get
me started in the right direction to find out why this happens.
 
Thanks!
