Unable to add nodes

All,

I just bought IPSLA yesterday and installed it today. I'm having a really hard time getting IPSLA to poll the SNMP strings. I know the strings are correct because they are being pulled directly from NPM (and I confirmed them). I have added RW strings and even tried the CLI...with no luck.

Here's the error I keep getting:

"Following nodes are missing valid SNMP credentials."

and

"IP SLA compatibility test failed"

This is from a new Cisco 2921 (IOS 15), and I've also tried from a 2821 (IOS 12.4.3b) and 7206 (12.4.15).

Ideas?

There is a notice about this requirement in the product release notes, however we will make sure this information gets more visible in the documentation as well.

You do not require another license for installations on additional polling engines. The installation process on an additional poller is straightforward and the integration with the primary engine is automatic.

Dwyane,

This message is usually reported when there is a problem with the test execution itself. Do you use additional pollers in your Orion configuration and did you installed IP SLA Manager on them as well?

Thanks.

I do have an additional poller and all nodes are polled by it. I didn't/don't see anything in the documentation about installing IP SLA on the additional pollers. Will I require another license? What is the process to get this NPM module integrated with the primary NPM server once I install it on the poller?

FYI: SolarWinds Orion Core 2010.1.0 SP1, APM 3.5, IPAM 1.7, IPSLAMGR 3.5, NCM 6.0, NPM 10.0.0 SP1, NTA 3.7

I apologize, I reviewed the admins guides, but not the release notes. Diligence on my part has failed! I'll try installing on the poller and let you know my results.

Thanks for the input/feedback...as always, Solarwinds does a great job with support!
