Frequently when I force a poll on a device I receive the following message “timeout on demand poll request”. The odd thing is it is not constant, sometimes the poll works. Has anyone else experienced this problem?
What is happining is that your HPOV server is it is sending an SNMP poll to a device and has a set period of time for the device to respond. If that device is a high use device like a router it my be too busy to respond before the time out. I would suggest trying this during a low network usage time like after 6:00.
If you still have a problem then you may have hardware problems with the device you are polling. For example the device my have more than one network ports and due to a bad port is either not recieving the poll or is not able to reply due to the bad port.
Be sure to try the poll during and off peak time for your network first. Trying to find a hareware problem will take quite a bit of time.
