General Support / Re: Monitoring offsite network

Hi,

probably using proxy agents is best solution for you. All you need is to open port 4700 for connection from NetXMS server to just one server with agent. You can turn on encryption and authentication for security. All devices and servers could then be monitored via this single proxy. You may also need to enable zoning and setup separate zone for each remote site - it may simplify proxy configuration (as you can define default proxy settings on zone level) and is required if remote networks have overlapped IP addresses.

Best regards,
Victor

Yes, seems that it was forgotten. I've created issue in bug tracker (https://www.radensolutions.com/chiliproject/issues/641). As for #4, it will be in 2.0 branch, probably close to year end.

Seems that it was forgotten. I've scheduled it for 1.2.17 release.

General Support / Re: Use ifTable instead of ifXTable?
August 20, 2014, 08:36:31 PM
Hi,

NetXMS should fall back to ifTable automatically if ifXTable is not supported. You can forcibly disable by setting "Use ifXTable for interface polling" to "Disable" on "Polling" page in node properties.

Announcements / Re: NetXMS 1.2.16 released

It is now possible to set display name for instance which is different from name (it is useful if for example you have to pass actual OID as parameter but want meaningful name in description). Instance name can be inserted into DCI description via {instance-name} macro. To set instance name you should return array of three elements from instance discovery filter: first element must be TRUE, second new instance, and third new instance name. For example, the following script can be used to name interfaces for collecting data from standard interface MIB:


// Get interface name from .1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.2.{instance}
snmp = CreateSNMPTransport($node);
ifName = SNMPGetValue(snmp, ".1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.2." . $1);
return %(true, $1, ifName);


Attached are screenshots with full DCI configuration.

Second is actually very easy - if you attach one instance discovery DCI to another instance discovery DCI, DCIs with actual data created from those will be attached to each other on performance tab as well, using instance as a key to find peers.

You can use Ctrl+Insert / Shift+Insert in any text field. Problem is that RAP platform tries to handle Ctrl+C / Ctrl+V and so it is not working in text fields. I currently do not have a solution for making Ctrl+C / Ctrl+V work.

For user_groups table just modify schema manually:


alter table user_groups modify description null


it will not affect upgrade to next version.

Fix for "access denied" error requires server recompilation. On what platform you have NetXMS server installed?

Hi,

actually, debug is enabled but debug output is not sent to remote console (but it's a bug, not a feature). You still got debug messages in the log.

Currently we plan to release 1.2.17 early in September.

Hi,

yes, this is a bug. It is already fixed in development trunk. Can you wait for 1.2.17 release?

General Support / Re: node for an unmanaged switch
August 19, 2014, 07:46:59 PM
This is because if there are no interfaces to poll NetXMS server uses only alarms to determine node status. You can get "normal" status if you will generate "normal" severity alarm from SYS_NODE_UP event. This is not elegant solution, I think I will move forward with implementing second option in near future - it should not take much effort to implement.

Hi,

grey background suggests that there was some error in GUI. Can you please post console log - usually %HOME%\.nxmc\data\.metadata\.log?

General Support / Re: node for an unmanaged switch

Without changes in NetXMS itself the only way to generate node down/up events for node without IP address is to use script in event processing policy which will use PostEvent to send SYS_NODE_DOWN or SYS_NODE_UP event when threshold is violated on interface status DCI.

I'm now thinking that it could be worth to add special functionality for such devices - probably by adding option to manually specify peer interface on managed node. Then status poll will check interface status and if it is down mark unmanageable node as down.

Victor

Я не совсем понял. Запрос по идее возвращает список узлов, у которых primary IP пустой. Но такого по идее не должно быть. Действительно есть ноды у которых primary_ip null?
