Re: [opennms-discuss] poller package question

SourceForge Headquarters 225 Broadway Suite 1600 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 454-5900

Actually, I got it working now.

Newbie mistake.  In the part of the string that ended with opennms, I didnt
realize that was a database name.

Changing that to a valid db name on my target node got it working and to my
surprise it was smart enough to
figure out there were actually three db's in that instance and is
collecting on all of them.

Thanks,
