OP-Manager not able to Poll DMZ zone network quite often

Hello Guys,

We have two monitoring Tools OP-Manager 6.0 & Solar Winds Engg edition
ver9.0 in our network which monitors Servers, Networks in OP-Manager &
Network in Solar winds.

From past few we are seeing that our OP-manager sends communication alert in
the tool that all the server in DMZ are down and it will immediately come-up
after 2-3mins,

However None of the servers in reality were shut down nor rebooted and no
production impact were observed.

Also when we check the DMZ switch connected to these server ports are looks
ok and switch did not reboot when checked the up-time & cpu utilization is
ok.

But however we are suspecting that may be due to high data transfer between
servers in DMZ zone it is causing the OP-manager to fail to talk the DMZ
zone servers.

Note:-
OP-Manager & Solar winds servers are connected in the Inside network.
We are also not seeing any major utilization on the DMZ switch 1 connected
to external firewall.
It was only the DMZ switch 2 which is connected to DMZ switch1 as uplink and
connected to servers showing high BW utilization.

Please assist me in Isolating this issue.

I would highly appreciate all your suggestions!

Regards,
Akber Mirza.
