6062.0. "High rate of "failed poll" in the exporter." by GIDDAY::CHONG (Andrew Chong - Sydney CSC ) Mon Aug 01 1994 02:01

This question was asked before in notes 1874 but received no reply.
The exporter is running and not reporting errors. However when doing a 
show exporting for status , it is noticed that the ratio of successful poll
to successful polls is about 3 to 5 or about 37% successful. While there are 
no export failures, the customer is concerned with such a high rate of 
unsuccessful polls.  He is exporting snmp * interface * .
Some entities at the end of the list are not showing as having export data 
at all (see attached output).

MCC V1.3 
Kernel patch CSC_4 applied. 

So the questions are :

	why does the exporter consider a poll as failed when the scheduled 
	time has passed ? 

	How can I overcome (or reduced) the rate of failed poll ?
	
	why are some entities not showing as having export data ?
