We trialed Lansweeper a few months back and had great success, we were able to easily find all our assets just by scanning our IP ranges.
We decided to move the LS instance to it's own server, after we got the server up and running and re-installed LS (we wanted to start fresh and needed to upgrade the Server OS to 2019).
However, now that LS has been re-installed and IP ranges imported back in as scanning targets, we are not getting info back.
Some more info...
- Each subnet we are tying to hit is pingable from the server LS instance is installed on
- No network changes have occurred since the last time we had LS up and running
- I have gotten a few devices to randomly show up from some of these subnets but it is only 1-5 assets. Checking in our RMM software I can easily see that these sites should each be pulling 30-50 assets (all currently online as well).
- you can see in the image that there have been 4800 scans but I only have about 150 assets (I should be closer to 450)
I've already sent a ticket into support@lansweeper.com but I wanted to see if anyone else in the forum has experienced this kind of issue.
Thanks,
The view you are in is the scanning queue. Normally it runs from time to time depending on the settings you have implemented. You can go to a report pre-made by lansweeper or one that you have created and on the left tell that report to scan and see that list populate on the image you sent.
You can check the Scanning Targets and view its schedule of when they get scanned. You can change those to reduce the number of times it scans.

Hi,
I'm aware of what I"m looking at, I'm more looking for help in troubleshooting why no assets are being picked up when my IP ranges are being scanned.
I'm not worried about how often the server is scanning, I'm worried about it not picking up assets I know are connected and online in its scan.

Sounds like the problem we had. Turned out to be scanning exclusions that preventing the assets from being captured. In our case it was "Web server". We had a good amount of devices that were coming up under that asset type. I also found problems with bad SNMP credentials. Had to double check that the IP subnets had the correct SNMP creds mapped and that the strings were correct. HTH

Thanks for the advice, we do have some exclusions but I can't imagine that LS is seeing all our W10 machines as Apple/iMacs/ipads/ipods.
I'll take a look at what SNMP creds are loaded in but I don't remember doing that in my initial trial. I'll still look into it, thanks!
