I have a customer who is running hubwatch V4. for Windows. He also has version 4 of the firmware for the hub900. His problem is that he has amongst the modules a decserver 90TL. On one of his PCs, whilst he can see the module, it has no LEDs lit on it, even though on the actual module they are. On another of his PCs, whilst the power light, the self-test Ok light and the network Ok light come on, there are no other LEDs on the 90TL in hubwatch. I have tested this on my terminal and whilst I had to set up the 90TL in the community manage table (something which I have also taken the customer through), it worked fine. The customer gets an error message of no response from agent when he tries to manage the 90TL on its own and also when he tries to refresh the display, having set up the 90TL as an agent, in his Message Box window, he gets an error: "RPT900 Missing LED Data.....". I have two questions: 1. Why is the customer getting the error message about the missing LED data? 2. Why isn't the 90TL working when it has been set up as an agent. Can anyone help me at all? Many thanks in advance for any help Will

I'm a bit confused here. You're talking about a DECserver 90TL but yet the message that pops up is in regard to DECrepeaters. I believe that the message that is printed out about RPT900 missing led data and the fact that the LEDs are not lit are due to HUBwatch not handling the MIB information properly. Currently, when a DECrepeater 900CP or DECrepeater 900TP have their button pushed in on the physical bezel (not HUBwatch), the firmware only returns the information on the LEDs shown on the module. HUBwatch unfortunately takes this to mean that not all the LED information is available and takes the action describe above. This will be fixed in V5.0. Do you know if the button is pressed on your module. If you are having a problem with the DECserver 90TL it may be caused the firmware not responding to all the SNMP requests. Check that the lastest firmware is installed. Steve HUBwatch Team | |||||

Steve, Many thanks for your reply. I still have a query though: If there is a problem with SNMP responses on the 90TL, why is it that on one hubwatch session, there are some LEDs lit and on another none? Is there a reason for the lack of consistancy on this problem? In addition, why would the user be getting a 'no response from agent' message when he tries to double-click on it in hubwatch, even when the 90TL has been successfully set up as an agent. Again, I would be extremely grateful for any light which either you or anyone else could shed upon this problem Many thanks Will |
