    Advice needed - which one of two templates to use for Comware 5/7

    Hello,

    I've "inherited" a pre-configured Zabbix 6.4.x, which monitors a number of Comware 5 and 7 network devices. There are L2 and L3 switches, and some routers.
    The problem is, all the devices are configured using 2 different templates, and the choice of template is random to the point when 2 identical devices use different templates.

    I am trying to figure out, which one of these templates is out-of box (if any), and which is custom?
    Which one is newer?
    Which one to use for all the devices?

    One of these templates has "version" in description, and the other has "template tooling version". Is "version" and "tooling version" the same thing?

    Please advice. Thank you in advance.

    The templates in question are:

    1. HP Comware HH3C SNMPv2
    Description: Template Net HP Comware (HH3C) version: 0.15
    Overview: hxxp://certifiedgeek.weebly.com/blog/hp-comware-snmp-mib-for-cpu-memory-and-temperature
    hxxp://www.h3c.com.hk/products___solutions/technology/system_management/configuration_example/200912/656451_57_0.htm

    MIBs used:
    HH3C-ENTITY-EXT-MIB
    ENTITY-MIB
    Known Issues:

    2. Template Net HP Comware HH3C SNMPv2
    Description:

      Thank you for the recommendation.
      When i attempt to import the new template from that git link, it actually tries to merge with first template, "HP Comware HH3C SNMPv2" but fails with a conflict error.

      *EDIT*
      Nevermind, i moved all the hosts to a newer one of the two, deleted the old one and successfully merged the newer one with the one from GIT. All is working fine now.
