Hi
I have migrated my ESXi-network from a vSphere Standard Switch to a vSphere Distributed Switch with 2 x 10Gbe Uplinks with LACP.
After that SNMP stopped working when i try to poll the node.
Running a SNMPwalk from the machine running NetXMS-server

This is what the netxms log-file tells me as soon as i try to do a poll.

I have tried to use SNMP version 1, 2c and 3 with the same result, but it works when doing the snmpwalk. No idea why it does not respond.
SNMP to my switch works perfectly.
I am running version 1.2.9 of server and console, i have tried to delete and add the node again. Also restarted NetXMS-server and rebooted the machine where NetXMS-server is running on.
I haven't restarted the ESXi-server, but i assume it should work when all other machines can snmpwalk it.
Any fancy clues?
Edit
I have upgraded the server to 1.2.12 and the issue is still there for me with the same output.
