NetXMS Support Forum

Hi!

My console normally uses around 100MB, but my MIB file is much smaller. I agree with you that MIB file can be loaded into memory on first access, not after start. Will change it.

It is possible to add threshold to status DCI and generate some custom event instead of SYS_NODE_DOWN, and do all processing for this custom event. But status and SYS_NODE_DOWN have one important difference - status also takes current alarms into consideration. So, if there is active critical alarm, status will be 4 (critical), but SYS_NODE_DOWN will not be generated, because node itself is reachable. Starting from upcoming 1.2.12 release, it is also possible to create DCI which will check node down flag. If you put threshold on such DCI and will generate some custom node down event, you'll get exactly what you need. To create such DCI, create new DCI with source "Internal" and parameter name "Dummy", and use the following transformation script:


return ($node->runtimeFlags & 0x04) ? 1 : 0;


This DCI will return 1 if node is down and 0 otherwise.

Access to real equipment can really help. Can you contact me directly so we can organize it?

NetXMS server uses IP address resolved from host name (or IP address) specified as "primary host name" in node properties. You can see it in overview page as "Primary IP".

Hi!

All ServiceCheck parameters just connects over TCP to target and do some handshaking. If I understand correctly you need to monitor local processes? Then you can just use Process.Count to check that required processes are running.

Hi!

You can check that current string value differs from previous value by using "diff" threshold. But this will not work as you need - you won't be able to check what part of string was changed and so identify what service is not running. Better solution here would be instance discovery or tables - but this requires list or table DCI with all services, which is not available either. My recomendation is to wait for 1.2.12 release - I will add Service list and table support to agent and you'll be able to configure what you need without additional workarounds.

Thanks for nailing it, I'll include fix in next release.

Hi!

Can you please send me core file (to [email protected])?

Best regards,
Victor

Please try this version: https://www.dropbox.com/s/rft98tv0ahnekv6/netxms-1.2.12.tar.gz. Note that it will upgrade your database, you won't be able to go back to 1.2.11, so do backup first.

What database you are using?

Best regards,
Victor

Yes, please try MySQL 5.5. Also, I'll prepare test update later today - I've found some potentially problematic places in our MySQL driver.

BTW having a slide show feature can be another additional nice feature to be implemented

It is implemented for quite a while To create a slide show, create new dashboard, add element of type "Dashboard", and in properties of this element, add dashboards you want to display and delay between switches.

Currently you can put one dashboard under another, so you can create empty dashboards instead of containers. I agree that it looks a bit strange though. I see two possible solutions: a) add special object type "dashboard container"; or b) automatically configure empty dashboard with child dashboards to work in "slide show" mode showing all dashboards below in a cycle.

Hi!

If your company security policy prohibits traffic forwarding from outside directly to internal network, we have experimental client proxy, which can be placed in DMZ. You can try to build it from latest sources by giving --with-client-proxy  option to configure.

Hi!

There was another installation crashing in very similar way, on console connect, but on Windows. There problem was solved by replacing MySQL client library with latest version. Is there any updates for MySQL client?
