QuoteYou can create dashboard which contains other dashboards and configure rotation. (Create new dashboard object, add single element of type "Dashboard", open it's properties, and add dashboards you want to rotate to the list. You can also set delay between changing screen here.)

Seems to do the job, one question, I've create a dashboard to host network map. When it is displayed, I have no background, and icons are not setup like within the network map (I know that there's a bug with display settings storage not located in the map). Any idea ?

This is bug in console. It's already fixed, version 1.2.8 will work as expected.

QuoteNo, with current map implementation you can only see different colors beneath object icon

Any schedule for creating decoration or other object with color selection linked to object status ? (it might be usefull for ATM monitoring )

I'll add this to feature request list, but don't expect it in 1.2.8.

Last thing : is there a way to send events to java console (like force opening X view) ? Thaks to this, it would be possible to change view when an event occurs.

No, it's not possible. You can create your own plugin which will listen to events coming from server and do necessaey view switching Also, this will be a bit simpler when we add Python scripting support in console (similar like it's done now in nxshell tool).

Hi!

Currently it's not possible to rename DCIs created via instance discovery. I'll think what I can do for this in the future.

Trace function should work. Do you get other debug messages in the log? Maybe you specify debug level higher then actually enabled?

Do your device supports 64-bit interface counters? When you do SNMP walk on .1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.16 in MIB explorer, do you get results? Also, don't forget that instance discovery occurs at configuration poll, so you won't see new DCIs until next configuration poll (you can run it manually as well).

Just add this issue to bug tracker so it will not be lost: https://www.radensolutions.com/chiliproject/issues/294.

Hi!

What is your MySQL server version?

Listening on socket 0.0.0.0:4700 означает, что агент ожидает соединения на всех адресах, которые есть на хосте. Это нормально. Единственно, для локального агента добавьте 127.0.0.1 в списом MasterServers. И локальный агент ставится вместе с сервером, его не надо ставить отдельно.

What are you using to do this (maps ?)? What is the best to display (html connection or full java console) ?

I recommend using Java console - it looks nicer and work faster. There are options in Java console for auto login: http://wiki.netxms.org/wiki/Autologin_for_Management_Console.

Is there a way to rotate screens (ie: switch some parts of the screen to see different info/room ?) ?

You can create dashboard which contains other dashboards and configure rotation. (Create new dashboard object, add single element of type "Dashboard", open it's properties, and add dashboards you want to rotate to the list. You can also set delay between changing screen here.)

Is there a way to change dasboard screen when an alert is raised ? (an alert occured, and all the screens are switching to a view of the error DCI)

No.

Is there a way to create icons depending on object status (we use labels, but sizeable lights would be easier to integrate on photos)

No, with current map implementation you can only see different colors beneath object icon.

What is the use of rack object in Infrastructure Services ?

It's not done yet. Idea is to provide easy to configure rack view - each node will have rack image and rack position attribute, so after you add it to rack object it will be displayed in correct position automatically. We plan to implement this in 1.2.9 release.

What is the best use of geo location ? (ie: I have multiple objects at the same location, do I use a container ?) ?

It mostly useful for mobile devices (we have monitoring agent for Android-based devices, so you can track their location on map). For many non-mobile objects in one location it's better to use container and set geo location attribute for the container.

Hi!

There are known issue with topology discovery not working on some Cisco switches for devices in VLANs other than VLAN 1. May be it's your case too.

Hi!

You can use instance discovery for that. With instance discovery, you can create single DCI in template which will be expanded to one DCI per interface (you can also filter for what interfaces DCIs should be created). There are very basi description in user manual: http://wiki.netxms.org/wiki/UM:Data_Collection#Instance_Discovery and video tutorial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HSs9mP_0XK0.

У меня к сожалению нет сейчас доступной циски с SNMP v3, поэтому проверить не могу. На всякий случай, Engine ID NetXMS сервера - 0x80, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x40, 0x20, 0x10, 0x08, 0x04, 0x02, 0x01, 0x00 (128.0.0.0.64.32.16.8.4.2.1.0).

В данный момент единственный вариант - создавать дополнительные DCI, в которых в transformation script считать min/max/avg, и добавлять их на график.

Изменения в темплейте накладываются на связанные ноды после закрытия редактора. Соответственно если редактор не закрыть, то они так и будут висеть до завершения сессии.

ThresholdRepeatInterval, значение по умолчанию 0 (disabled).

Запустите агента с ключом -D9 - это максимальный уровень отладочных сообщений - и проверьте, доходят ли подключения с сервера. Типичных причин две - firewall между сервером и агентом (или на самом хосте, где стоит агент), или NAT - тогда соединение на агент прходит с внешнего адреса сервера, и агент его не принимает.
Еще после установки агента не забывайте делать принудительный configuration poll, если нода уже добавлена в мониторинг к этому моменту - иначе сервер проверит наличие агента только через час (по умолчанию).

Насколько это плохо - зависит от того, постоянное это состояние или периодические пики. Если просто пики время от времени, а обычные значения - около 0, то все в порядке, скорее всего это связано с периодическими фоновыми очистками логов и собранных данных. Если значение часто сильно выше 0, то это означает, что база не очень справляется с записью данных. Возможно, поможет увеличение числа потоков записи (параметр сервера NumberOfDatabaseWriters).

Hi!

Currently server can have interfaces excluded from network topology. The problem is that there are no UI to set this flag on interface object. As a workaround, you can find interface objects with addresses from 128.0.0.0/2 subnet, record their IDs, then stop the server and execute SQL query like this:

UPDATE interfaces SET flags=flags+4 WHERE id=your_interface_object_id

for each such interface object. Then you can start server and delete 128.0.0.0/2 subnet object . It should not appear again.
