<![CDATA[Setup not going through with SQL Server]]>Hi, I downloaded netxms-server-3.9.298-x64 on a win 10 64 machine, I chose MS SQL server, I enter correct information for the DB server (which is a named or default instance), correct logins or * but always getting an error

NetXMS Database Manager Version 3.9.298 Build 3.9-298-g2adbdd51e5 (UNICODE)
Unable to connect to database server SQL2K12\SC2K12 as sa ([Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified)
***** PRESS ANY KEY TO CONTINUE *****
or when using * as my login has all privileges on the DB server, get same thing

Whatever I choose I get "Data source name not found and no default driver specified"

Thanks for your help

This will also solve Unknown network interface issue.

Once you have a node that is accessible via SNMP or netxms agent you can right-click on interface and select "Create data collection items". There you will be able to create the data collection items (DCIs) that will collect numeric data on the traffic. Then you can right-click node and select Last values - the data will be there.

First of all, I have a 2 or 3 machines who have 2 or 3 NIcs, in the "entire network" list, those machines are repeated as the same number of Nics.
2nd, under all discovered machines, there is Nic icon flagged with "Unknown".
Also, I have a D-Link switch which was not discovered.

So my last query is about "Network Monitoring" for which I was interested to test NetXMS. Can you please let me know where I can monitor network traffic?

Thanks

But when I clicked on "Finish", nothing happened, no message....no wizard again and not sure how to continue

nxdbmgr check

I get the same exact error as you can notice for the 4 tests

Try just IP address there.

Anyways, all that the installation wizard does is creating C:\NetXMS\etc\netxmsd.conf and launching
nxdbmgr init
(which is located in C:\NetXMS\bin).

So you can adjust the .conf file and run nxdbmgr init manually. When it succeeds, you can start Netxms Core service.

NeyXNS is setup on a new brand fresh win 10 VM, in case you mean SSMS on this VM no It is not setup and I think that NetMXS setup will install necessary libraries to access SQL default or named instance

Unable to connect .... server SQL2K12\SC2K12,
