NetXMS Support Forum

Pictures speak a thousand words....

Hi, I'm also having issues with this issue since upgrading.
W2003K server monitoring about 40 windows servers and about 20 other devices.
Often I can get timeout errors when applying Templates and polling configurations. Only happing since the upgrade.

This sin't really an area I deal with, so some hand holding is really needed!

How do I query a value from WMI? I knwo the cmd I need, but have no idea how to set it up in the agent and then in the data collection configurator.

The cmd you would run on the local machine is:

wmic OS Get DataExecutionPrevention_SupportPolicy

it will return a value of 0 -3 and I have no problem getting this to alarm etc, it just the actual config I can't work out.

thanks as always guys.

Thanks for that, good to know either way

Is there a way to watch for a registry key change?
We have an app that seems to be changing a registry key, but can't work out under what circumstances it does it.

thanks,
Stu..

Thanks for that, really appreciated

Just made the jump from the old legacy version to the new and apart from a few agent permission issues going well and I like the newer look.
Just a quick question, as a can't find it in the Wiki, the image library used for Network maps, what format is best e.g. 32x32 ico? or 64x64 jpg?

Thanks and once again good work...

version 1.0.13

Hi, I was wondering if the SNMP trap logs can be exported in any way.
Just a simple issue that my varbinds are so long, I can't fit all the detail on the screen, so can't see what to set up.

Trying to get a logwatch on a custom Eventlog (Server 2003) and no matter what I try I can't seem to get it to work. I'm sure I'm missing something obvious.

MasterServers = 10.32.3.49
LogFile = {syslog}
FileStore = C:\NetXMS\var
SubAgent = ecs.nsm
SubAgent = ping.nsm
SubAgent = portcheck.nsm
SubAgent = winperf.nsm
SubAgent = wmi.nsm
SubAgent = logwatch.nsm

*LOGWATCH
Parser = C:\NetXMS\tvdevicefail.xml

............................

<parser>
<file>C:\WINDOWS\System32\config\TVEvent.evt</file>
<rules>
   <rule>
   <match>*</match>
   <id>137</id>
   <level>2</level>
   <source>Televantage</source>
   <event>100065</event>
   </rule>
      <rule>
      <match>*</match>
      <id>106</id>
      <level>4</level>
      <source>Televantage</source>
      event>100066</event>
      </rule>
</rules>
</parser>

I can generate automatically the 2nd event, but no matter what I try, I don't seem to receive it in NetXMS. Am I missing something very obvious, does it have to set up a DCI? If so, what on earth would the parameters be?

Thanks once agian guys and keep up the good work.

Ok two ways for SNMP, traps and polling.

A quick guide.
Changes (including things up / down) are usually SENT to NetXMS  from the device. These are usually configured under "Trap Destinations" or similar.
Status, e.g. tempreture or items in use, are usally polled for i.e. NetXMS requests the info from the device.
Here you really need to make sure that your SNMP authentication details match and your destination will accept requests from NetXMS for info.
Then you will need to make sure you have the mibs for that device set on NetXMS.
Then the hard work of matching and alerting sets in :-)

...but.
Any chance of getting a RSS feed for the latest news bit on the website

Do you have an idea when 1.1.x will be classed as stable?

We currently run a batch file to warn of impending doom (ok when a system is down).
Is there a way to get NetXMS to run this (or an internal version), but put the message in the highlighted section, so it would say 'Server %m is down'

I'm no programmer, so simple is best ;-)

@echo off

c:\Rcmd \\exchange1 osql -S exchange1 -U sa -P ourpassword -Q "insert into VGSMDB..loglog (destination, content) values ('Majors','Server is back up and running.')"

pause

Thanks.

If I get what you want correctly:

Create a Template.

Add all the ports to that Template.

Now Open Port 96 DCI's, highlight the DCI you want to use and right click > Convert to Template Item.

Select the template you just created.

Come out and now Right click on the template and Apply. Select all your nodes and there you go.

Indeed it was an incorrect subnet dicovery. An orignal system had gon in with the incorrect subnet mask. Then set up some non-SNMP devices which in turn used this subnet mask. So changing the other made no difference to the Subnet, I had to remove the interfaces on the non managed ones to correct the problem.
Thanks guys.
