unable to connect: communication failure

[zain]

Hello;
i have just installed netxms with mysql database, the installation went smooth , but when i run the console it gives me

unable to connect: communication failure

i used the default user name and password in the documentation un: admin, pw: netxms

can anyone tell me where is the problem.

thanks

Hello!

Most possible cause for that error is that NetXMS server (netxmsd) is not running. Another possible problem may be that NetXMS server is behind firewall and port 4701 is filtered.

thanks a lot, it worked....

i have another question, where is the status of each node stored in the database? because i need to pull the status of the nods...

thanks

When you create a node, system automatically creates DCI called "Status". This DCI polled once per minute and contains node's status. You can find collected data in idata_xx tables, where xx is node's id.
