[hobbit] Cisco switches

[Nikesh Maharaj]

Im not sure if snmp is installed. How do I check that ? also, after
starting the devmon process, I try to do a grep for devmon 

And don't see anything ?

SNMP community string specified correctly?  Will the device talk to the
devmon host (no ACL or other "blocks") in the way?

	Devmon is still having a problem as per line below :

	 

	[root at nms01 etc]# /downloads/devmon/devmon --readbbhosts

	[08-01-16 at 20:42:17] Could not query device: 192.168.18.72

	[root at nms01 etc]#

	 

	Any ideas guys ?

	I can ping the switch by its ip address but not by name from
hobbit server and feel therefore

	That devmon -readbbhosts is having a problem resolving this. Do
I have to put in a name in the bb-hosts file ?

	I have a single node running with devmon, but I also have a
database.

Am I incorrect ?

		
		As I understand it, the database is only required if you
have multiple systems running devmon.
