Troubleshooting steps if the network module does not start properly

Troubleshooting steps when the Network Module does not start properly

Follow the steps below to fix Network Module-related issues. If the issue is not resolved by the first step, try the subsequent steps until the issue is resolved.

Step 1:
Stop the On-Premise Poller and restart it with administrator or root privileges. The On-Premise Poller will start running within ten minutes. 

Step 2:
Check if the Network Module is downloaded properly.
  1. Log in to the Site24x7 web client, and navigate to Admin > On-Premise Poller.
  2. If the status of the Network Module is Download failed , download it manually .
Step 3:
For the Network Module to function properly, there should be a certain amount of minimum space available in your disk and memory. Check if your system configurations meet the system requirements for network monitoring . 

Step 4:
To run the Network Module without any glitches, you must have administrator or root privileges in the system where it is installed. 
If you're using Linux, log in as a root user or as a user who is added to the sudo users' group.
To check if you have been added to the sudo users' group:
  1. Execute the command in your terminal:
    getent group sudo | cut -d: -f4
  2. Verify if the output contains your username. If not, please get in touch with your sysadmin to get it added to the sudo users' group.

Step 5: 
Even after stopping the On-Premise Poller, some processes may still be running. Check and kill all Java and Postgres processes related to the On-Premise Poller.  

Step 6:
If the above steps don't resolve your issue, the database may be corrupted. If so, reinitialize the database.  
Follow the next step only if you've newly installed an On-Premise Poller and there are no devices being monitored from that On-Premise Poller. Do not try these if there are devices already being monitored from the On-Premise Poller.
  1. Stop the On-Premise Poller . 
  2. Open Command Prompt , and navigate to the home directory of the On-Premise Poller.
  3. From there, navigate to NetworkPlus > bin folder. 
  4. Execute the file reinitDB.sh (Linux) or reinitDB.bat (Windows) with root/administrator privileges.
  5. Start the On-Premise Poller with root/administrator privileges.
