In the dashboard of Opmanager scroll down to the monitor’s list. Click the Edit icon. We will try for the CPU Utilization monitor of any devices. Click the Test Monitor link in the resulting screen. See if the devices respond to the ping. If yes then it will show you graphs of the devices.
If you encounter any error after performing 1st step then your SNMP request to the CPU Variables is Time-out or it is out of network.
