I have done everything possible to get DFM Polling to work.
1. Reinitialzed DB....restart server.
Alerts come in for a while I clear the reachability alerts and it stops....no alerts come in. Although I do know that we have active device alerts.
2. Attempted to bring database to last consistent state.
1) Stop the daemon manager
- net stop crmdmgtd
- wait 5 min that all the process stops
2) remove/rename any dfmEpm.log, dfmFh.log, dfmInv.log (if exists)
under the follow directory:
- C:\Program Files\CSCOpx\databases\dfmEpm
- C:\Program Files\CSCOpx\databases\dfmFh
- C:\Program Files\CSCOpx\databases\dfmInv
3) Run the checkpoint recovery of the dfmfh database
- cd \progra~1\CSCOpx\databases\dfmfh
- dbsrv10 -f dfmfh
4) Run the checkpoint recovery of the dfmEpmdatabase
- cd \progra~1\CSCOpx\databases\dfmEpm
- dbsrv10 -f dfmEpm
5) Run the checkpoint recovery of thedfmInv database
- cd \progra~1\CSCOpx\databases\dfmInv
- dbsrv10 -f dfmInv
- net start crmdmgtd
This works for while and now no alerts are coming in again....no windows update has occurred on the server....I'm out of ideas at the time.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Believe it or not this seems to be working now with your recommendations.
Is this a permanant fix to apply or both servers?

If I didn't believe it, I wouldn't have suggested it. We actually see this a lot. DFM is not a trap-based fault management system. While it can receive and process certain traps, it is designed to rely on polling the determine when faults occur on the network.
I wouldn't call this a permanent fix. I would instead, recommend you start throttling traps to the DFM server. Only send those trap which DFM can understand (see http://www.cisco.com/en/US/partner/docs/net_mgmt/ciscoworks_device_fault_manager/3.2/user/guide/TrapFwd.html ). Make sure you're only sending traps from devices which DFM is managing.

Understood I only have Cisco devices imported now. As before I believe
I just imported everything from Foundry Load balancer to Juniper
Firewalls.

Just to add to....I have a secondary Ciscoworks server and I tried to add one device to it as well....same results.
Could the DCR be corrupt?
