No Resources under list resource SNMP enabled.

I just added some servers with Net-SNMP and everything added successfully, but when I click list resources I get nothing. Any advice?? Thanks in advance

In almost all cases the issue is with settings defined in the snmpd.conf file. Most notably the view restrictions which restrict which OIDs are queryable to the system MIB only. Orion leverages the HOST-RESOURCE MIB among others depending on the module. I recommend following the directions below to properly configure SNMP on your Linux server. Alternatively you can replace your snmpd.conf file with the one attached. (ensure you rename it from "snmpd.conf.txt" to "snmpd.conf", place it in the properly directory (usually /etc/snmp/) and restart the SNMP daemon on the server. (service snmpd restart)

Configure SNMP

(1) Edit file /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf using text editor:

# vi /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf

Change/Modify line(s) as follows:

Find following Line:

com2sec notConfigUser default public

Replace with (make sure you replace 192.168.0.0/24 replace with your network IPs) following lines:

com2sec local localhost public
com2sec mynetwork 192.168.0.0/24 public

Scroll down bit and change:

Find Lines:

group notConfigGroup v1 notConfigUser
group notConfigGroup v2c notConfigUser

Replace with:

group MyRWGroup v1         local
group MyRWGroup v2c        local
group MyRWGroup usm        local
group MyROGroup v1         mynetwork
group MyROGroup v2c        mynetwork
group MyROGroup usm        mynetwork

Again scroll down bit and locate following line:

Find line:

view systemview included system

Replace with:

view all included .1 80

Again scroll down bit and change:

Find line:

access notConfigGroup "" any noauth exact systemview none none

Replace with:

access MyROGroup "" any noauth exact all none none
access MyRWGroup "" any noauth exact all all none

Scroll down bit and change:

Find lines:

syslocation Unknown (edit /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf)
syscontact Root (configure /etc/snmp/snmp.local.conf)

Replace with (make sure you supply appropriate values):

syslocation Location
syscontact Contact Information

snmpd.conf.txt

I would consider removing the node completely and re-adding it to Orion. If that doesn't work I would look into the net-SNMP setting on my server.

You might want to check the net-snmp version and update it. I had a whole bunch of Redhat servers which had SNMP configured properly and would pass the SNMP test but would show you absolutely nothing when you moved to listing the resources. Updated the net-snmp package and they started working fine. I don't remember what version I was using initially though.
