NMIS 9 FAQ

Localhost is in a degraded state for the first set up

The  NMIS VM is reporting that it is in a degraded state.  When I check the status, the only thing that reports "not green" is the hrSystemProcesses = 182.

The process event  is caused by the alerting setup in the Net-SNMP model, and the default threshold for this is 150 processes.

To tune this value, it is possible to EITHER use the Model editor (menu system -> system configuration -> nmis models; then select model net-snmp, and section system) OR the threshold/alert tuning dialog (menu setup -> thresholding alert tuning; again select model net-snmp and section system).

This threshold was updated to 375 from NMIS 9.3.1.
