RE: [IM-Talk] Re: Intermapper Splunk App
There's a new Beta (0.7.6) of the InterMapper Splunk app out on Splunkbase which is supposed to have improvements to dashboard generation, better notifications of problems connecting to the InterMapper server and more graceful handling of missing Layer 2 data. I suggest trying the new version to see if that resolves any of your issues with the app. Mark -Original Message- From: InterMapper-Talk@list.dartware.com [mailto:InterMapper- t...@list.dartware.com] On Behalf Of Howard, Christopher Bryan Sent: 14 February 2013 18:48 To: InterMapper Discussion Subject: Re: [IM-Talk] Re: Intermapper Splunk App Mine still isn't fixed.

RE: [IM-Talk] Re: Intermapper Splunk App
If you're still having problems with the 0.7.6 version, is the app giving you any error messages (e.g. on the Default Map page you may see Default Map Not Found or Error: Unable to connect to InterMapper Server; on other pages you may see a red bar at the top with an error message)? Otherwise, there is a log file which may help track down the problem at $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/InterMapper/local/imAppLog.log (where $SPLUNK_HOME is the directory you installed Splunk to).

Re: [IM-Talk] Re: Intermapper Splunk App
I just installed the update to the intermapper app and it appears to be working for me now. The default map loads and the device list is no longer empty. There is no layer 2 data in there right now, but that problem lies on the Intermapper server (polling hangs and never completes), which I had a ticket open for, but I've not heard back about it in a couple months now. Only thing I see that's not desirable with the new version of the intermapper splunk app is that my splunk box is pretty much hosed. Sitting at 100% CPU usage, used up all its RAM and most of its swap space. It's not a huge box, but up until now it's been overkill. Hopefully this subsides. -Christopher On 2/15/13 11:25 AM, Mark Jenkins mjenk...@marquest.com wrote: If you're still having problems with the 0.7.6 version, is the app giving you any error messages (e.g. on the Default Map page you may see Default Map Not Found or Error: Unable to connect to InterMapper Server; on other pages you may see a red bar at the top with an error message)?
