      Hi!

      I hope that it will be before end of March, but I have planned quite a lot for this release, so maybe it will be delayed till first half of April, depending on how fast I'll be able to do development.

      Best regards,
      Victor

          hi victor,

          i have upgraded the server and all to 1.2.0 and from first impression i can see that it does not re-detect the hba modules but it does not place them under the subnet container in the "entire network" tree.
          i will wait until tomorrow to see if the hba's are being rediscovered and will keep you posted.

          Best Regards,
          Lindeamon

            hi victor,

            now i can say for sure that the hba modules are not redetected but thay are not placed under the correct place in the subnet tree.
            i can tell you that in the ibm blade center there are 2 management modules and the hba modules management interface is routed through them meaning that if the management module is down there will be no network connectivity to the hba module.

            Best Regards,
            Lindeamon

              Hi!

              Can you please show me all interfaces under hba module with IP addresses and primary IP address of HBA module? I suspect that module's primary address is not visible on any of it's interfaces, and this is why NetXMS server doen not place them into subnet tree.

              Best regards,
              Victor

                  hi victor,

                  i have attached 3 screen shots of the FC module.basically "bay x" means the number of the blade and "ext x" means the ports connected to a san storage or switch.
                  it has a management or sup interface that holds it's ip but the communication to the module is routed through the blade management module which have a different ip, in this case is 172.16.4.60

                  Best Regards,
                  Lindeamon

                    hi victor,

                    i do not know where you stand on this issue but i just want to update you that apparently the fc modules are discovered and in former version they where located under "business.."  but now i do not even see them and get alarm for them.

                        Are you 100% sure that they are nowhere in the tree? Try to do IP address filter in object tree - enter > followed by IP address in filter field.

                          i am sure and the reason for that is that only when i upgraded to 1.2.1 i got alarms for them i then i have noticed that instead of residing some where in the tree they are gone.
                          i will do the requested check and let u know

                              That's very strange. When possible, can you stop the server and run database check? Will it report any errors?

                              Best regards,

                                hi victor,

                                u were right. running the db check found the unlinked object.why wasn't i informed of this ?
                                is it a bug ?

                                Best Regards,

                                  Hi!

                                  It's definitely a bug in the server which leaves some nodes unattached to neither subnet nor container object. I have one fix possibly related to this in 1.2.2 - may be it helps. If not, I'll have a chance to connect IBM blade to NetXMS in a couple of weeks, then I'll be able to do necessary tests.

                                  Best regards,
                                  Victor

                                    hi victor,

                                    obviously i will have to wait and see if it will help.
                                    after i have done the checking the missing nodes were not found again although the network discovery is active. i will check tomorrow to see if they were rediscovered and i will let u know

                                      done the check and found that although i get alarms from the FC modules i do not see them anywhere.
                                      need to solve this quickly

                                        no luck. i have ran the db check and fixed the errors and still no nodes and just alarms.
                                        guess you will check that after the vacation

                                          Can you dump server objects by running command

                                          nxadm -c "sh o" > file

                                          and try to find records for problematic objects in that file, and send them to me?

                                          Best regards,
