Hi Buchan, You are absolutly correct that I should share the templates with the others ;-) I just added them to sourceforge. I installed the patch but I'm afraid it didn't solve the issue we're expiriencing. Perhaps another thing that can help If I restart devmon, the tests are working for the first run, but all runs after are failing. (This complies for all servers with the 'missing repeater data' issue.) So devmon does find repeater data for the first run, but the run's after, it fails to recognize the repeater data which as result reacts in devmon as an 'Undefined value'. (However I'm not sure if this is an issue in devmon, or dueue to the server itself not responding.) Below is a sample of the log. I do have a debug logg available which I sent to you privately instead of spamming everybody on the list. [09-11-16@11:37:30] ---Initilizing devmon...

In the compaq-server template, I had this problem. For example, if the server has no hot spare configured, then the whole branches for sprDrvCntIndex, sprDrvIndex, and sprDrvStatus would simply not be present. Devmon would then fail on these, and report missing repeater data, and then stop polling the device. Thus, I created a compaq-servernohspare for this case. However, I have recently commited a potential fix for this in svn: http://devmon.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/devmon/trunk/modules/dm_snmp.pm ?r1=145&r2=156&view=patch > For other servers with same config, they are working and recognized > fine. > All tests which are after that specific test, altough they are > working, are not executed anymore and no results are displayed. You could disable the affected test, then the test for which there is complete data would work, but please try the patch I refer to above. (I can't currently test on HP servers, but it works for me here with a much simpler case). > We also tried to use the devmon templates on sourceforge for compaq > devices, but the results are not different. > > Does anyone expirienced a similar issue as above and solved it?
