Re: [nv-l] 7.1.5 AIX Discovered objects in DB but no symbols on map--have PMR open

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

I used to see that in 7.1.4, and kept
a smartset of '(isNetwork=True) && ("IP Status"="Unmanaged")'
just so I could see them when their colors did not match their status.
I have not seen it in 7.1.5.

Nothing in the nettl log? No clues in
netmon.trace?

I would use the serious cleanup tools
to get rid of anything that might be blocking proper rediscovery: 
ovtopofix -m, and treat the results
with ovwdbdmap -d 
and
ovmapcount -b, and treat the results
as the output instructs.

Turn on netmon tracing, rediscover them
and and grep the address in the netmon.trace. 

If they are SNMP. make sure you are
discovering those things by real addresses that appear in the address table
and reference interface index numbers that are in the interface table.


If they are not SNMP devices, make sure
you are looking for them in the right place. Who knows what mask netmon
decided on? Could be 255.0.0.0
nvUtil e '(isInterface=True) &&
'("IP Address"="xx.xx.xx.xx")'

Hi Drew,

I've had such a problem in the past.

The reson in my case was, that the network icon of the network segment
of
the devices ip has been flagged as "unmanaged".

Hi folks,


Newly discovered objects are added to the database, but the corresponding
map symbols aren't created. By that, I mean you discover a device, see
it
using ovtopodump, but can't locate it on the map. We use only the default
map. ovobjprint -s validates there are no OVW Maps Exists or OVW Maps
Managed fields. We schedule ovmapcount and ovtopofix maintenance 3 times
per week, and I have already tried it again, but no change. The subnets
these devices would connect to are managed. Everything seems to be working,
but no symbols. Existing items are fine, you can locate them, etc.


If you add the same device to the development 7.1.5 server, it's all good.
The admins say they haven't changed anything, and it seems the database
is
fine, NV's running OK. The symbols files/oid_to* are all there as expected.


We've opened a PMR, but nothing resolved yet. I searched the list and found
good suggestions that have it narrowed to this point. Any ideas on what
to
check next?


Thanks!--Drew
