I have got Hubwatch installed and was able to run it from command line using the -x option to specify the IP address of the node. The -a option did not work because Hubwatch used nslookup to query DNS for the IP address with the specified name. The node name was not known to DNS. I even put in the name and IP address of the node in /etc/hosts, the IP address was still not able to be resolved. I could not invoke Hubwatch from Netview. How is the agent file used ? Why is it that IP address, node name and MAC adddress have to be specified ? The agent name or agent type was rather confusing. Could someone shield some light on this ? Rgds.

Depending on what version of HUBwatch you have there is a detailed explanation of running with Polycenter Netview. It can be found in either the release notes (earlier versions) or in the documentation. Also see note 3029 for one problem that the installation does not do for you. | |||||

I have got the problem fixed. The selection name in Netview did not tally with the agent name in Hubwatch's agent file, and Hubwatch tried to locate the name using nslookup. Merry X'mas. |
