NAV has a process for maintaining information on copper cable plant, but there is nothing to track the fiber cable plant. This would be especially useful in a campus environment.
Each strand of fiber would need to be able to use two rooms as endpoints and include categories for types of fiber (i.e. 50 micron multi-mode, 62.5 micron multi-mode, single-mode) and types of connectors (i.e. ST...

We also get these false coldStart alerts from our NAV installation. It seems to be related to DNS; Every time we've had issues with our DNS servers, where NAV is unable to reverse-lookup the IP of devices, we get these false alerts. Here is an example (in norwegian):
First we get an alert like this (notice the missing hostname):
Boks xxx.xxx.xxx.2 (xxx.xxx.xxx.2) har gjennomført en...

This is an old, known problem we have to start looking at.
The servicemon and pping daemons are known for frequent startup failures. I.e. they appear to start successfully when the "nav start" command is entered, but as soon as they've started running in the background, they die.
This is an intermittent problem, and the workaround so far has been to just keep trying to start the daemons...

The report tool seems to load extra slowly for most pages since NAV 3.4.0.
A quick look at the code suggests that the queries needed to create both the IPv4 and IPv6 scope matrices are run on each report page load. These two queries can become costly as the number of prefices in the database grows.
I know there is a partial fix in the jorabra-report branch, but this fix should be...

Just an update about the ramifications of these bugs:
The netbox_close_arp and netbox_close_cam will cause errors in machine tracking history as netboxes are deleted, and are potentially serious.
The rrdfile_deleter problem is relatively minor; it deletes NAV's knowledge of an RRD file related to a service when the service checker is deleted. Other parts of NAV will fix this when it sees...

Fixed in changeset fe8433bc7f39, pushed to series/3.4.x and default. Looks like we'll have to push a 3.4.2 version soon.
