[nv-l] collected data with hostnames or IPs?

["Alaa Farrag" <alaahelmy1@hotmail.com>]

Hi all

 

We are using netview 7.1.3 with windows 2000 server

 

I have a problem with data collection

when I issue snmpodump (snmpcoldump) some nodes appear with their IP addresses and the others appear with their host names taking in consideration that all the nodes are resolved correctly to their host names in the netview console and in the objects database.

also when I changed some of the host names in the etc\hosts file some of the collected data appeared with the old host name of the nodes.  

I tried making the following but did not work

- stopping the netmon and the snmpcollect daemons

- clearing all netview databases

- clearing snmpcollect database (usr\ov\database\snmpcollect is now empty )

- starting the netmon daemon

- making sure that netview discovered all the needed nodes with correct host name

- starting the the snmpcollect daemon

 

but the problem stills

any one can help?

 

thanks
