Node Troubleshooting

Is the node reachable?

Ping it with a big echo request.

Manual Update & Collect Actions

If a node isn't providing the data we think it should sometimes looking at manual update & collect debugs is helpful.  Redirect or tee the output to a file in order to review latter.

[root@opmantek ~]# /usr/local/nmis8/bin/nmis.pl node=asgard debug=9 type=update > nodeUpdate.txt

[root@opmantek ~]# /usr/local/nmis8/bin/nmis.pl node=asgard debug=9 type=update | tee nodeUpdate.txt
