Sorry look like the lab-lightning is a bad sample case. The reason I've pick a random host is because when running poller with "-h all" I get these "Unpingable" message on all the hosts and I've checked that they are not disabled.

sour% ./poller.php -h all
Observium Poller v0.13.1.3507

Starting polling run:

2west-sw.sdsc.edu 1 ios (cisco)
Unpingablevg-dd60-sw.sdsc.edu 2 junos 
Unpingableeastcolo-arista.sdsc.edu 4 arista_eos 
Unpingablewestcolo-arista.sdsc.edu 5 arista_eos 
Unpingablelightning.sdsc.edu 6 ios (cisco)
Unpingablethunder.sdsc.edu 7 ios (cisco)

But pinging a single host is okay.

sour% ping vg-dd60-sw.sdsc.edu

Running it on the individual host appeared to work but still getting the "Unpingable" message...

That hostname doesnt match the database, or that host is disabled.

All,

I'm kind of hitting a wall here. I moved Observium to a new server today and somehow Observium is unable to "ping" any hosts.

sour% ./poller.php -h lab-lightning.sdsc.edu -d

However, on the host it self, I can ping or snmpget any devices using the same FQDN name.
