DCNM Discovery

Hi

 

I'm having issues with DCNM discovering some Nexus 7K's.  Shallow discovery seems fine.  I enter the Nexus and its snmpv3 credentials in

DCNM> Admin>Data Sources>LAN

I enter the device as a single device in a switch list and it finds it as manageable.  I select the device and it goes into Discovering.

 

Sometimes it completes this part and allows me to go to Deep discovery.  Other times I get snmp timeout messages.  I have had it complete a deep discovery and show up on my topology map only for it to disappear a day later again with snmp timeout errors.  I've confirmed the snmpv3 credentials work with a 3rd party MIB browser which lets me test credentials and all is ok with them.

My first question is

 

The DCNM server seems to have an incorrect time.  Is this a possible issue ? If so how do I set the time ?  I've looked all over the GUI and can't find any place to set it.  Is it taken from the VM platform or is it set independently ?

 

Are there any other issues that may cause discovery problems ?

 

Thanks, Stuart.
