[mrtg] Re: MRTG not communicating with C6509

[Bigelow, Andrea L.]

 I run into this occasionally as well with Cisco equipment -- however, since
that's almost all of what I monitor, I guess that's all the equipment. If
you daemonize your MRTG for that device, check to make sure the PID still
exists.

First, check your logfile and see what errors you're getting. Secondly, see
if you can poll the device manually from your MRTG server with snmpwalk (ie:
snmpwalk -c <read string> -v 1 <IP address>).

Subject: [mrtg] MRTG not communicating with C6509

I have occasional problems with MRTG and I hate it when the problems
magically fix themselves -- I don't know what went wrong or how to fix it
next time. In other words, I haven't always learned from experience.

Yesterday I discovered that I have no data on two of my C6509s since Tuesday
at 10:25. A third C6509 in the same rack works fine. Today I found another
switch, a C3550-12G, that has not been recording data since January 11 at
14:25.

>From my MRTG box, I can ping all of the switches and I can telnet into each
of them. I'm assuming this means I have a good route between the devices.
What I can't figure out is what would cause the communications to suddenly
stop.

Can anyone offer any troubleshooting tips? I would like to understand the
what's going on as well as get the problem fixed.

Thanks,
Chuck
