Cacti gets no snmp response from the Cluster - it can ping it, but doesn't get snmp responses...

I can, and do, monitor both of the nodes of the cluster, but, for Sox compliance reporting, need to monitor the cluster (it IS currently being monitorred by NetCrunch).

I haven't done the research (thats your job), but can a cluster be monitored via snmp? The fact that you can monitor individual boxes, but not the cluster sounds like it might not be possible...

Are there OIDs, which get enabled on Windows once it becomes part of a cluster that you can monitor?

To the first point. Yes I CAN monitor the cluster - using NetCrunch (also uses SNMP). Also I can get snmp data from the cluster using Getif and WSPingPro from my winXP PC.

However... If I try a tinysnmpwalk from a Knoppix VM on my XP PC it fails...

Hmmm.. Thinks to self... Could this be a VM issues or is it an issue with the implementation of SNMP that Linux/Cacti use?

2nd point - Actually that I do not know, I will try and find out...

Thanks
