ipdevpoll does not set sysname unless snmp is enabled
by Ingeborg Hellemo 14 Nov '11

14 Nov '11

During migration from old NAV (3.5.6) to new NAV (3.9.1) I "Bulk import"-ed all our hosts. I notice that ipdevpoll does not set correct sysname on hosts that does not run a configured snmpd. nav=> select * from netbox where ip='129.242.5.142'; netboxid | ip | roomid | typeid | deviceid | sysname | catid ----------+---------------+--------+--------+----------+---------------+------- 1100 | 129.242.5.142 | ma | | 87934 | 129.242.5.142 | SRV This means I now have several hundred boxes (mostly windows servers, virtual IPs and misc "stuff") lacking a proper sysname, even though they are registered i DNS. ipdevpoll.log: 2011-08-31 10:07:02,584 [WARNING plugins.dnsname.dnsname] [inventory 129.242.5.142] Box dnsname has changed from u'129.242.5.142' to 'radius1.uit.no' 2011-08-31 10:07:36,612 [ERROR jobs.jobhandler] [inventory 129.242.5.142] Job 'inventory' for 129.242.5.142 aborted: SNMP request timed out If I edit the host via the Seed DB web interface the correct sysname is saved: nav=> select * from netbox where ip='129.242.5.142'; netboxid | ip | roomid | typeid | deviceid | sysname | catid ----------+---------------+--------+--------+----------+----------------+------ - 1100 | 129.242.5.142 | ma | | 87934 | radius1.uit.no | SRV I presume this is a bug. --Ingeborg -- Ingeborg Østrem Hellemo -- ingeborg.hellemo(a)uit.no Dep. of Information Technology --- Univ. of Tromsø

network time is incorrect on cricket
by Ryan Lin 14 Nov '11

14 Nov '11

hi all, we have installed nav on one of our servers. everything is functioning properly except the time on the cricket. the time on the cricket is showing the UTC time. i would like to change it to the PDT time, but don't know how as there is no documentation available on how to change the time in nav. the server that's hosting the nav is synchronized to a public NTP server, so there is no issue with that. does anyone know how to correct the time in cricket on nav? thanks.

Switch information Nortel Networks Layer 2-3 GBE Switch Module(Copper)
by Duarte Franco 12 Aug '11

12 Aug '11

Hi I am trying to get the switch information of an IBM Bladecenter. The switch modules are Nortel Networks Layer 2-3 GBE Switch Module(Copper). OID is 1.3.6.1.4.1.1872.1.18.1 Is there any way to make the data acquisition of this type of switch? In the "IP Device Info" i saw 0 ports an the cricket have no data. There is some workaround for this type of switch? Best Regards
