operation down

praeceptorem

I have a cisco nexus running the IP SLA udp-jitter out to several locations. Its been running fine, and reporting ok on its own. They were discovered, and imported in through the wizard. They keep showing up as operationally down so I cant get anything to graph.

What did I miss?

Sample config off Nexus for one of the SLA monitors:

ip sla 20

  udp-jitter 10.1.17.2 5000

    threshold 1000

    timeout 1500

    frequency 10

    history hours-of-statistics-kept 24

    history distributions-of-statistics-kept 20

    history statistics-distribution-interval 10

    history enhanced interval 900 buckets 100

ip sla schedule 20 life forever start-time now

I would suggest you start with an SNMP walk of the node to see if the results you are getting match up to the OID's found on page 110 of the VNQM admin guide https://support.solarwinds.com/@api/deki/files/23107/VNQMAdministratorGuide.pdf

If you can't see any obvious problems with that then I would take that information and open a ticket with support and see if they can make any headway against it. 

Worst case scenario though, it might be because of something that the Nexus does differently in how it reports the results of SLA operations, in which you might be out of luck because officially they don't support Nexus devices in VNQM

Good luck.
