SNMPv3 Polling Stops After Credentials Change

How To


Summary

After updates to a device's SNMPv3 credentials two things need to happen for SevOne to continue to poll the devices. One, the device credentials in SevOne must be updated, and two, the SevOne-polld daemon must be restarted to refresh the cached credentials.

From a Support perspective this should be one of the top suspects anytime a device(s) with SNMPv3 stops polling. It's important to note that the team that administers the SevOne NMS for a customer may not be the one managing the end devices and may not be aware that changes have taken place.
