NetApp Ontap SNMP plugin error

Hello, I am trying to use the Netapp Ontap SNMP plugin by following this https://docs.centreon.com/pp/integrations/plugin-packs/procedures/hardware-storage-netapp-ontap-snmp/ .I am able to ping it but all the other services have an “Execute command failed” error and I can’t figure out where it comes from. I tried to configure a community on my Netapp as well but nothing changed.Thanks in advance for the help.

Host discovery not running

I’m trying to use host discovery as per:  https://docs.centreon.com/docs/monitoring/discovery/hosts-discovery/(with the Generic SNMP host discovery provider) Unfortunately, neither “execute immediately” nor scheduled jobs seem to ever progress from ‘scheduled’ to ‘running’ - the host discovery UI has them indefinitely stuck at ‘scheduled’, 0s duration, 0 hosts discovered, “execute now” and “show results” greyed out.What could I be missing?

Putting together a host template from scanned services

I’m just getting familiar with Centreon.I started by adding a couple of server-type hosts from our infrastructure, and put together some monitoring for them using the service scan function. That works great and gives me a very convenient resource overview. (All SNMP-based for now.)Now, I’d like to do a similar thing with the client machines on the network - to be able to see disk space getting low, VMs burning CPU/memory while idling, stuff like that.I’ve added one such client host as a starting point, and again used the scan function to add the 10 or so services I’m interested in.Now, my question is, how do I create templates from those 10 scanned services, so I can put them together into a host template and ideally auto-discover my range of 35+ client machines and have the same service monitors applied?I.e., is there a “template from existing service” function that copies over all the service’s configuration values?

ESX-Memory counter.

All monitored services are ok except ‘Esx-Memory’, which has status UNKNOWN with error: Cannot get counter 'mem.state.latest' for the sampling period '300' (counter level: 2, sampling level: 1) . I found some advise that it can be fixed in vcenter web client but i cannot find where to change value from 1 to 2 for ‘ mem.state.latest ‘ settings, which is responsible for this counter.
