		<description><![CDATA[Hi Kris,

Would love to see how you did that. In my test setup, the network interfaces, volumes, files, processes are listed but they are just empty circles, nothing is contained in the diagram view. 

When I check the Health Explorer, CPU System Percent Utilization, Free Real &amp; Swap Memory monitors etc. but they are not displayed in the diagram view. 

I have imported the management pack to Microsoft&#039;s Authoring Console and simulated the rules and monitors. At that point I have seen that under the &quot;Target Expressions&quot;  section the community string is blank. When I enter the community string manually and rerun the simulation, the data was captured fine. 

I have rechecked the snmp.conf file, the traps using the Byte Sphere&#039;s OIDview and ensured that there is no problem with the snmp traps. It seems that I have a problem with the management pack, which seems to me that it is not aware of the community string. The string was entered properly during device discovery. 

Can you recheck the configuration once again and publish if there is any post-configuration steps? I have followed your Net-SNMP Management Packs document [dated 09/17/2009] but frankly it did not help with configuration.

Thanks,
Tolga]]></description>
