Take a look at
# Device names in Netdot are DNS records. Normally underscores
# are not allowed in DNS (with some exceptions). Setting this
# to 1 will allow underscores anywhere in a device name.
ALLOW_UNDERSCORES_IN_DEVICE_NAMES => 0,
on Default.conf and then move that to Site.conf and configure it accordingly.
That should do the trick.

Hello,
I just was able to successfully move NetDot to a newer faster server
(from 8 cores 2g Ram 50g hd RAID 1) to a Server with (16 Cores, 16gb
RAM, 1.1T hd Raid 10)
I have not see much improvement on responses from NetDot, I have done a
few MySql Tweaks like
max_allowed_packet = 16M
thread_concurrency = 16
Any other ideas to make the app faster? The only other app running on
the server is InterMapper which is barely using any resources. Waiting
time on i/o is %0.03 at worst.
Appolgies if this questions has been answered before as I could not find
an answer in the archives.

Hi Mike,
What operations do you see NetDot being slow on, specifically ?
> max_allowed_packet = 16M
> thread_concurrency = 16
You could enable slow query logging in MySQL, and see what happens:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/slow-query-log.html
Worth checking out is http://www.percona.com/software/percona-toolkit
which has many tools to troubleshoot MySQL performance.
Assuming the problem is not I/O based, it could be a problem with
mod_perl (if it's sluggish interface response).
Either way, more info will help :)
Cheers,
Phil

Hi Phil,
The operations i see that are slow and the response from the server is
not as snappy is Looking up IPv6 Address, sub nets and loading devices.
The version of "mod_perl" I have is 2.0.4-10.el6.
Defiantly not i/o based issue. I will look at those articles and
tweak accordingly if needed.
Thanks for the quick response.
