Hi all!

Attached is a configuration with data collection template and SNMP trap mapping for Nortel (now Avaya) Wireless Security Switches.

Hi!

Agent is modular, and platform-specific parameters are provided by subagents. When agent starts, it automatically loads so-called "platform subagent", which provides these parameters. For example, on Windows agent will load "winnt.nsm", and on Linux it will load "libnsm_linux.so". After subagent loading, parameters provided it added to m_ParamList in core agent. You may take a look inside subagent.cpp if you are interested how subagents are loaded.

Hi!

Can you post at least one example of your DCI configuration? And don't forget that any SNMP OID has "instance" - so, for example, system description OID shown in MIB tree as ".1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1", should be configured in DCI as ".1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1.0". You can check what instances are available by using "walk" option in MIB explorer.

Hi!

Sorry, I was unable to find the reason immediately, and then I forgot about that. Could you please send me results of the following walk:

nxsnmpwalk -c your_community switch_ip .1.3.6.1.2.1.4.20

Best regards,

Hi!

Most likely agent returns an error in response for those parameters. You can check it with nxget command line tool. Also, please note that physical disk parameters are working only for some devices.

By default it will be file name (exactly as written in <file> tag), and you will be able to change it by adding name attribute to <parser> tag. For example,
for parser

<parser>
  <file>*System</file>
  ...
</parser>

instance name will be *System, and for


<parser name="SystemLog">
  <file>*System</file>
  ...
</parser>

instance name will be SystemLog.

Done it. Next release will have these parameters implemented.

Hi!

It is because Java and legacy console threats invalid numbers differently. Legacy console tries to parse value as a number, and if it starts with a number, uses that part, so 13gb becomes 13. Java console threats all incorrect numbers as zeros, so 13gb becomes 0.

Hi!

Looks like it is not possible with current implementation of WMI.Query. I'll take a closer look at it in a few days - looks like this functionality can be added with simple changes in WMI subagent.

Hi!

Last error is ok if you do not have DRBD installed. It cannot affect agent's communications. When you do configuration poll for node in NetXMS, did you get anything in agent's log? You should see at least lines like this:

[01-Nov-2011 09:48:34] Incoming connection from 127.0.0.1

If you don't, that means that server cannot even establish TCP session with the agent, and problem is on the network layer - firewall, routing, etc.

Hi!

They are still not implemented. Agent shows them, but always returns an error.

It should automatically add node object on management server, to simplify deployment of agents. You can register agent at any time from command line:

nxagentd.exe -r server

I plan to release stable version till end of the year. Key points to be achieved before release of 1.2.0 is to implement all functionality of legacy console in Java console and made application stable.

Victor
