Hi, I'm having difficulty helping a field engineer get serverworks running on a new Prioris server with NT 4.0. We were able to get ServerWorks/ManageWorks installed, configured alarms, did an IP discovery, etc. We installed the agent (NT) on the Prioris but we can't ever discover it or force it in the the Server Objects list. It goes in but you can never connect - just a gray Serverworks screen comes up - waits for a while and times out. We went thru the agent install twice - never records messages in the Event Viewer. On an NT machine here we see the agent starting in the Event viewer. We have the agent and Manageworks/Serverworks manager on the same machine. Also, w;hen NT starts, we get the infamous Event Dispatcher: Winsock Error Setting up SNMP trap port=10048! Please check your services file for an entry as follows: SNMP TRAP 162/UDP. I'm familiar with this error - checked the services file but it has the snmp trap entry set for 162/udp correctly. I am convinced the agent isn't running on the NT but I can't seem to get it to install. I even sent him the Agents zip file I got from the web - used the i386 version. Any ideas what's wrong? Thanks, Gary

Which Prioris Server? Which Version of Server Works? Can you check the registry at \HKEY\LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services for an entry of either SWLLSKA,SWOLDDRV,SWLLDRV,SWLLIND Let us know which? Then look for the Service entry SNMP\Parameters\ExtensionAgents You should have Values for DIGCLAG,DIGHRAG,DIGPVAG,DIGSMAG. Are they all there? From the command prompt try net stop snmp net start snmp Let us know if an error appears? If no error appears, try net stop snmp net stop swlldrv - for Prioris ZX6 net stop swllind - for Prioris HX6 net stop swllska - for Prioris MX6 net stop swolddrv - for all other models net start (above choice) net start snmp If there is still no error indication, Edit the platform.cnf file found at winnt and change the entry for logging=no to logging=yes. Now do a "net stop snmp" and a "net start snmp". At the conclusion of the attempt to browse the server, send the file swapi.log to me. It can be found in \winnt\system32\sw_logs\swapi.log. Thanks, Rich | |||||

When you installed the agent software, did you install SNMP first? After installing the host resource agent, did you go into the control panel and have a looksee at Devices to verify that the Digital Server works host resource agent was there? and started? Is the server also the management station? Is it a PDC or BDC? There are other things that could go wrong, but this is a start. chet |
