NetXMS Support Forum

I am getting an odd transformation error (that never occurred before, until after the 2.2.1 update).  This is happening on the NetXMS server agent node.

(HOSTNAME xxx.xxx.xxx::227::TransformationScript) execution error: Error 13 in line 1: Cannot do automatic type cast

Unfortunately from this error I am not able to determine which of the several data collection items I have is the culprit.  I am getting results back on all my collection items, no invalid data but still getting the error... thoughts?

Thanks in advance!

I looked around and could not find a post about this... from time to time, I get new network interfaces showing up on machines that are not changing in any way.  I have ruled out multiple ip's, nic's etc.  These literally happen all the time and I think to date all in Win OS environments.  Today for example, I have 3 new Local Area Connections (labeled 9,10 and 11).  The server in question has but a single IP and ipv6 is off.... yet each of the NICS being reported as new show ipv6 addresses.  It shows the interface type as tunnel(x3) and one called Interface Type=6 (ethernetCsmacd) which has an IP which isn't even in this subnet -and- belongs to a different server.  Further, this server does not have any VPN services or any other type of tunnel protocol enabled. 

ipconfig/all shows none of these adapters, mac addresses or anything.  Any thoughts as to why this keeps happening and how to stop it?

Thanks!

Victor,

Thanks for the reply.  I did make that change after noticing that myself.  I changed to the SYS_TABLE... however, I still get false positives.  Unless I need to be looking for hex codes versus verbose text comparisons.  This also happens with a table looking at volume sizes... seems like it could be a bug?

I am monitoring services from a windows agent, in a table.  I have a threshold set to look for any service set to auto that is not running.  I have exceptions as well, ignoring Software Protection, Google and other services that start and stop on demand (although set to auto in the service itself).  This works well for the most part, however I am getting false positives on this.  For example:

Threshold reached for data collection item   "SYS - Services" (Parameter: System.Services; Threshold value: 0x00000086; Actual value: 18)

Do I need to break up my conditions or something? How do I narrow down what service it is that hitting the threshold?

Thanks in advance!

I couldn't find this in any documentation or on the boards...
Was wondering if it is possible to trigger an alert if a specific software package version has changed?  For instance if SERVER X has IE 10.1.1400 and it updates, then reads IE 11.0.0000.  Can that trigger an alert?

Thanks in advance!

Victor,

I had the server reg enabled, but thanks for the help.  It was driving me crazy.  I will look for the next build.

Thanks!

So, I have battled this issue a lot.  I have never gotten it working and I really need to figure out how.  When I indicate I want the agent to register manually with NetXMS, I fire up the nxagentd with the -r <server>.  Sounds simple enough... so why for the love of all that is holy can't I get this to work?  I have tried -r with the ip and the dns name.  I have tailed my server log and see no activity whatsoever.

If installed the latest version of the agent (also running latest build of the server) and I did see a moment where the agent tried to download a config file from the server (the -M)... so that seemed to work, though i didn't have a valid file there for it... which I would love to do but haven't read up enough on it yet to know... I digress.

So does anyone know any reason the -r wouldn't work.  Like I said, I see no indications that it is even attempting to do it.  Thanks so much in advance!

No, I just did an in place upgrade over 1.2.6 and it stopped working shortly after.  Through an agent/proxy, it does not work.. directly it does.

It seems with the latest build, I am no longer able to query SNMP via an proxy agent/host.  Example:

NETXMS Server ----> AGENT w/ SNMP Proxy---->SNMP Device

Queries directly to an SNMP from the NETXMS server appear to work still....

Anyone else seeing this?

Thanks,

I tried doing this... nada.  The instructions are not totally clear, so no doubt I am doing something wrong, but looking at the JAVA code, it looks like it loads the image file (assumed to be the netxms_login.dat) into a variable and calls if present.  Otherwise the standard logo appears.  Has anyone had any luck doing this?  Are there any other undocumented tips for the WebUI?  Like can you change other features, the title of the app, etc?  Thanks in advance all!

Thanks Victor... I looked everywhere... so I thought.  Sorry for the delayed reply... forgot I posted this to be perfectly honest.

I apologize if I missed this somewhere, but is there an easy way to get NetXMS to wait until two missed pooling cycles pass before considering a node "down".  I have one location that has squirly internet and I get about 30 notifications a day.  I just want to know if the event lasts more than one pass.  This would be the built-in up/down status.  Not on a specific service or rule I have built.  As far as I can tell, it looks like I would need to disable the pooling and look for my own data.

Thanks Alex!

A number of the agent download links are broken.  Unix/Debian 32 bit (netxms-agent_1.2.0_i386.deb) for example is no longer accessible.  Anyone?

Same here.  Can confirm, ensured the port 8080 was free, reinstalled... same issue.  No nxhttpd config in /etc, no war files, nada.
