I have some data which is slightly delayed from the source application. The data has it's own, and more accurate timestamp, that I would like to use when adding my DCI values in NetXMS. The reason for using this timestamp, is that the delay can vary from 30 seconds to up to 2 minutes. Also, this data can be delivered in large batches. I'm pre-processing the data, but need to use the applications timestamp for accurate data reporting.
I'm looking at nxpush and/or using the agent with a script to collect these as DCI values. I can't see anywhere if we are able to provide our own timestamp as opposed to NetXMS providing time.
Any thoughts or suggestions on this scenario?
Cheers,
We have a same need that basically to import monitoring data from other data source that does not have SNMP agent. The data will be fed to NetXMS server for reporting/monitoring purpose. Data format may look like following:
Jan 06 01:22:45 DataReceived 12kb
Jan 06 01:22:46 DataSent 3kb
Jan 06 01:23:40 DataReceived 12.5kb
Jan 06 01:23:41 DataSent 3.6kb
Any suggestion from you all that import these and report from NetXMS will be appreciated.
