NetXMS Support Forum

Hello,

I am trying to monitor network security cameras that have no SNMP functionality. I set the objects to use ICMP to determine node status, but the objects don't generate alarms even though they are offline. I tried resetting the alarms using the link below:


https://wiki.netxms.org/wiki/Reseting_state_of_all_alarms_and_node_statuses

Cameras showing 100% ICMP packet loss show as normal and don't have any alarms even after alarm status reset. Any suggestions?

It works beautifully now. Thank you so much, Filipp!

Thanks, Filipp. That got me farther.

  Hey Filipp,

I didn't notice your response to this nearly 2 years ago. I don't know if this table structure is still useful, but it is what is exported from the Dude device list.

I was revisiting this thread as I was trying to bulk import older devices we weren't previously monitoring into our NetXMS deployment. I figured that I could re-use this script, but I am running into errors now when I try to use it.

SyntaxError: no viable alternative at input 'admin'

Thanks Victor - that did it!

Thanks, Amay. I tried using the Script Library method, but the message is not displaying anything before the node macro.

%[GetContainerName]%n is unresponsive - %a

UVC G3Ext 2 is unresponsive - 10.1.110.166

Hello all,

I would like to add the container name of a node to an alarm message, but I am not quite sure how to go about it. Any suggestions?

Thanks Amay!

My problem was that I didn't realize that the last digit was the index for the interface that I wanted to monitor. I can pull proper results for the individual DCI. I just need to figure out how to setup a template to automatically pull these values.

Hello,

I am trying to setup DCIs to collect SFP transmit and receive power values for Mikrotik switches and routers and am running into some trouble. I used the SNMP Walk tool to search for the right OID, but didn't see the right OID listed. I then googled the correct OID and tried creating a DCI with that OID, but my DCI isn't collecting proper values - just zeroes. 

Quote1st / sfp1:
.3.6.1.4.1.14988.1.1.19.1.1.9.1
iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.mikrotik.mikrotikExperimentalModule.mtXRouterOs.mtxrOptical.mtxrOpticalTable.mtxrOpticalTableEntry.mtxrOpticalTxPower.1

I would really appreciate any direction anyone could provide. Thanks!

I installed the agent on the server and enabled netsvc subagent. I then specified the server itself as "Source node Override" but it still appears to not be pulling any status codes.

Hello all,

I am trying to monitor the status of a door access controller by using a DCI that monitors the status of its web UI as ICMP is blocked. I used the NetworkService.Status and relevant URL, but my DCI goes inactive and does not pull a status code. I have verified that the web page loads on the NetXMS server itself.

Any suggestions?

This works beautifully. Thanks so much, Filipp!

V returns a valid result namely the full OID value "type=Master,,voltage=121.0,current=0.000,activePower=0.000,powerFactor=1.000,energy=3.446,temperature=-1,humidity=-1

I thought the next function was stuck on the second comma because the only result I get for b is "type=Master" That led me to try this

function main(oid, name) {
  transport = $node->createSNMPTransport();
  if (transport == null) return null;
  v = transport->getValue(oid);
  z = string(v);
  x = substr(z, 13);

  h = %{};
  for (a : x->split(",")) {
    b = a->split("=");
 println(b);
    if (b->size == 2) h = b[1];
  }
    return h[name];
}

Apparently I can't change the value to a string before passing it to h.

So the error I got when I tried executing it was "Error 35 in line 10: Hash map key is not a string"

I thought I could just turn it into a string with

string(b);

However, I still get the above error.

Thanks for the help, Filipp.

I tried to make a DCI with this script as the origin and I noticed that it keeps on disappearing from my Data Collection list a moment after hitting Apply and Close. Any suggestions?
