Understanding Auto-Discovery Errors and Problems
December 2001

Problem A user deleted an icon, but Auto-Discovery keeps displaying the icon on the submap.
Cause: The user did not delete the managed node from the Proxy Agent.
Solution: On the Proxy Agent, delete the node name from the Managed Node screen.
Problem A user administered the same managed node name on multiple Proxy Agents.
However, NMS submap only shows the connection between the managed node and
one of the Proxy Agents.
Cause: Auto-Discovery can manage only one instance of a managed node name and
disregards all but the last instance.
Solutions:
a To administer one managed node on one Proxy Agent, delete the managed nodes
from all but one Proxy Agent.
b To administer the same managed node on multiple Proxy Agents, delete the managed
node from all but one Proxy Agent. Then, rename the managed node to a different
name each time you administer the managed node on multiple Proxy Agents.
Examples:
Denver 1 -- the original node name for a managed node on Agent 1
Denver 2 -- the same managed node, but renamed on Agent 2
Denver 3 -- the same managed node, but renamed on Agent 3
