The fact that the AIX system couldn't connect to itself over SNMP may indicate that you don't have the SNMP daemon setup to listen for or allow connections over SNMP. This is confirmed by your !snmpdiagnose output.
Your !snmpdiagnose indicates that LM is trying to use 'public' as the community string to communicate with your AIX server. Hopefully you're not actually using "public" as your community string. Take a look here to see how to give LM the right credentials.
Thanks for the reply Stuart.
Your last line does make me remember another article that I had forgotten about which mentioned running the services but with a command that attaches the community string to the services. I will give this a try and see if it works.
I know for a fact that the community string is correct and they have been set as a custom property on the device (the same way we have for other devices)
Question: How can yo tell from the diagnose that it is trying to use "Public" as the community string?
Thanks,
