Netgear Switch port status unknown

I'm trying to monitor ports on my Netgear switches but I am getting inconsistency. Some of the port status report ok, some report UNKNOWN - No info is being retrieved.
All the port bandwidths report ok, put show 0Gb up or down
I've rechecked the SNMP v3 credentials and they are all fine and working.
The issue is appears on all my switches.
I'm fairly new to the world of Nagios and working my around the GUI.
If anyone could point me to what I am missing that would be much appreciated.

Hello
@mbrenchleycooper
Thanks for following up with the System Profile, in review we see that there is database errors. Want to have you run through the database repair and follow up with a updated 'System Profile'.
Please send me a copy of MySQL database column info:
Code: Select all
echo "SELECT table_name AS 'Table', round(((data_length + index_length) / 1024 / 1024), 2) 'Size in MB' FROM information_schema.TABLES WHERE table_schema IN ('nagios', 'nagiosql', 'nagiosxi');" | mysql -h 127.0.0.1 -uroot -pnagiosxi --table
Also, you may want to increase the
resources on your environment:
#Monitored: 100 | Services: 500 | Hard Drive: 80GB | CPU Cores: 2 – 4 | RAM: 4 – 8 GB
Thanks,
Perry

Ended up have to rebuild Nagios server as I managed to trash the HDD whilst trying to expand it.
Anyway server rebuilt and switch host added but I still have the same error, the links in question are uplinks between switches but I don't think that should be the issue.
I'll run the SQL script and PM you the results
