Do you mean when you use the "Test Datasource" function in the template?Â If so then I think that is what will happen as the UI is interacting with the Master server.

You can login to the remote collection and from the command line run:

zencommand run now -v10 -d <your devicename>

And it should run zencommand as it would normally run on that collector and give you debug output.

Thanks for the replay dhopp.

I've got it about the "Test Data Source" and the interaction UI + Master Server.

Nevertheless, the zencommand line you suggest does requests for datasources type "SNMP"? If no, what is the suitable command to run and see debug about?

To give you more details, this devece is being monitored with SNMPv3. When I use "Test Datasource" from the UI I get no response, as you explained me. But, the "snmpwalk" string is also incomplete for SNMPv3. See:

Preparing Command... Executing command snmpwalk -cHiThereCommunity -v3 192.168.xx.xx .1.3.6.1.4.1.15004.4.2.2.3.0 against 192.168.xx.xx
shell-init: error retrieving current directory: getcwd: cannot access parent directories: File or directory not found.
snmpwalk: TimeoutÂ
DONE in 6 seconds

Thanks again,

Felipe Castelar
