Did you ever get this working? Our system is no longer able to discover SNMP resources for systems that are already in the system and for new items. I can do an SNMP walk from the Orion server against the same devices.

Can you access the switches via SNMP using anything but Orion?

Can you discover any other devices using SNMP?

Are there any access lists on the switches (or any intermediate devices) that may be blocking SNMP traffic to the switch from your Orion server (or blocking responses back to the Orion server)?
