Yep David, All OK now. I restarted the service and sent a test trap from a dusty old OpenView box. Arrived in the Viewer and the Traps table. Thank you, jackie

oops....sorry...Anselm..not Dave. I'm a bit scattered today.

Dave, errrr.......services? You mean like exit and restart the Orion application? jackie

Hi David, They are still coming into the Trap Viewer but the Traps and TrapVarBinds tables in the database are empty and have been since I truncated them yesterday. If I double click on the Traps or TrapVarBinds tables and run the Select Top 1000 * From Traps query, nothing shows up. All other tables are merrily being…

Thanks Dave, One other thing...I've executed those two commands and blown out all the Traps and TrapVarbinds.......the box is still receiving traps but none of them are showing up in the Traps and TrapVarBinds tables now.....or do those tables take a while to get populated? I see the pesky traps come into the Trap Receiver…

Vic thanks very much, Your reports helped and with a little hacking around I managed to start creating my own ones. My CPU problem was due to the fact that my polling engine had stopped and CPU was being under-reported in the SQL database. You mentioned that this could be done via graphics as well............is it really…

where do I run these commands from? In the same text box as you would issue a SQL select statement? i.e. when you double click on a table and then click on the query button. j

I don't think that the problem is polling times. I launch System Manager and it shows me all the nodes that I have added. Right clicking on any one of their resources gives no data or wrong data (eg CPU Load). If I then go and launch a separate instance of Network Performance Monitor and then add a node (like my own…

Hi Vic, It doesn't matter...graphs or tabular is fine but I notice when you launch Report Writer and click on New Report it only gives you a very limited choice of what data to include and the CPU load is historical not current. But I notice that Current CPU load is a pre-existing report. When I try to preview it, it comes…

Thanks John, I managed to truncate a table that was using up 43Gb.....however there has been no change to my disk being full. The database still registers as 56Gb (even though only 2 or 3 Gb is being used). so I guess I have a database that has "reserved" 56Gb of diskspace. How is it possible to shrink this? My machine is…

Actually I think that the Events view might be what I need :-&
