Hello,

is it possible to insert bulk data from an excelsheet or csv-file to a mapping table?

Best regards

Implementing this feature for interfaces DCI-Class should be expanded by several DCI-Properties you can access by GUI like defining delta calculation, transformscript, performance Tab Attributes, thresholds and custom sceduled polls.

Hello together,

is it possible preventing generation of VLAN-interfaces for L2-switches like Cat4500 that do not really have an IP-adress on the Switch?

When configuring the switch the first time it is possible putting these interfaces to "unmange" but when a new VLAN is added it is a lot of work putting this VLAN to "unmange" on all switches ...

Best regards

Hello Victor,

first the node I'm looking for events is a normal switch that I can plug into the network or detach.
The two managementservers are in the same IP-subnet with the switch. On the server for prospective pruduction use I have a node for the relevant router in that network, but routing topology discovery is turned off for all configured nodes. There are no other nodes created that are behind this node.

Best regards and thanks fast reply

Having two installations of Netxms one for testing purposes (Netxms 1.2.5, Windows Server 2003, 32 bit) one that should go into production (Netxms 1.2.5, Windows Server 2003R2, 64bit) both updated from Netxms 1.2.4 there is different behavior in eventgeneration.
The problem occures when monitoring a node that is reachable and will get unreachable. Here are the events of the two systems.
Production system:
SYS_NODE_NORMAL -> SYS_NODE_UNREACHABLE -> (directly to) SYS_NODE_UNKNOWN -> (when node will be reconnected) SYS_NODE_UP -> SYS_IF_UP -> SYS_NODE_NORMAL

Test system:
SYS_NODE_NORMAL -> SYS_NODE_DOWN -> SYS_IF_DOWN -> SYS_NODE_CRITICAL -> (when node will be reconnected) SYS_NODE_UP -> SYS_IF_UP -> SYS_NODE_NORMAL

The behavior at the testsystem is what I expect for monitoring. At the production system before upgrading to 1.2.5 I did not investigate events, but there I got an alarm too when the node was detached. Now with 1.2.5 on the production system this isn't the case.

Can anyone help me solving this problem?

hello together,

is there a way to start a netxms script at the management console for a specific interface of a node where node and Interfacedata are passed to.
Somthing like Your builtin DCI-Creation for an interface a little bit more flexible and expandable e.g. generating a set set of DCIs for that interface or node controlled by a self written script.

Best regards

B.T.W.: Is there just a possibility to create a DCI with it's parameters via script?

Hello together,

it would be great to add teplates not only to nodes but to interfaces too.
This with a new macro like %ifindex%.
You can create or remove a set of DCIs that collect data individually for an interface, because its not always necessary or possible to monitor all interfaces of a networkcomponent or collect data for it.

Is the $dci object added in final version of 1.2.4?

Now we have same understanding of my problem.
Thanks for the information concerning $dci.
This will simplify the tasks concerning calculation of values for me. Because I don't want generating an extra snmprequest each time the octet-value is requested.

Thanks for the help!

Not really what I want to do.
Within transformationscript some pseudocode now
sub main()
{
  pos = rindex(trim($dci->name),".");
  len = length(trim($dci->name)) - pos;
  port = right($dci->name,len);
  snmpoid = ".1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.5.".port;
  speed = GetDCIValueByName($node,snmpoid);
  result = (($1**100)/speed;
  return result;
}

the meaning of $dci in this example would be the same as with $node refering to the current DCI.

Sorry but I hove to clarify the question. I want to do the following with the Transformatinscript of the DCI

I have an DCI with parameter:
.1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.10.10201
from that parameter/name I want to build the parameter
.1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.5.10201
to find the corresponding DCI by GetDCIValueByName that has requested the interface speed.
With this information I want to calculate the percentage value for the usage of the interface within the transformormationscript.

Hello together,

is there a way to use attributes of the current DCI within a transformationscript?

For example getting the name-attribute and building out of this an oid with an value that was requested in an other DCI.

Best regards

Georg

Thanks for that idea!

Hello Victor,

a single DCI can be displayed as a chart in the object details Performance tab.

The only way to display combined charts of multiple DCIs from a component is to create a dashboardentry that will be configured seperatly.

It could be great to have same possibilities within the performance-tab of object details.
For example this will be usefull for a display of in- and out bits for one interface in one chart.

Best regards

Georg

Hello together,

a single DCI can be displayed as a chart in the object details Performance tab.
Is there a way to combine two or more DCIs in one chart of the performance tab.
Displaying the values of two or more DCIs in a history tab is possible.
An example could be the in and out octetvalues of an interface.

Best regards

Georg
