NetXMS Support Forum

Hi!

If NetXMS cannot communicate with the node, it consider node as down. It is not possible to distinguish between situations when only interface communicating with NetXMS server or entire node is down, if other interfaces are not reachable by NetXMS server. However, if they are reachable at least by ICMP ping, server will correctly detect that only interface is down. There are other possible scenarios to distinguish between those two cases, but they are dependent on your actual network topology.

Server connects to agents. You need to open TCP port 4700 in direction from server to agents.

Here it is. Just replace existing libnxsl.dll with attached one.

Short description of new functions:

index(string, substring, [position])
Returns the position of the first occurrence of SUBSTRING in STRING at or after POSITION.
If you don't specify POSITION, the search starts at the beginning of STRING. If SUBSTRING
is not found, returns 0.

rindex(string, substring, [position])
Returns the position of the last occurrence of SUBSTRING in STRING at or before POSITION.
If you don't specify POSITION, the search starts at the end of STRING. If SUBSTRING
is not found, returns 0.

All indexes are 1-based (first character has index 1), as in substr.

Hi!

It's not possible directly. However, you can convert/copy DCIs to template(s), and export those templates using Tools -> Export Configuration.

Hi!

There are no such functions in current version. I have implemented index and rindex for next version. If you need them urgently, I can publish source code patch or rebuilt NXSL engine for Windows.

Куда-то исчез оригинальный пост про проблему компиляции NetWare-Server-MIB.txt (в аттаче). Это баг MIB компилятора. В аттаче патч на исходники. Если надо, могу выложить пересобранный nxmibc для Windows.

Можно посмотреть какие маски прописаны у объектов подсетей в таблице subnets, и поправить если они неправильные (изменения можно делать только при остановленном сервере). Можно отключить появление аларма, сделав неактивным или удалив соответствующее правило. А появляется действительно аларм вида

Invalid network mask 255.255.255.128 on interface "em0", should be 255.255.255.128

где маска, которая должна быть, соответствует той, что есть, но не смотря на это создается аларм, или просто в should be неправильное значение маски?

Ok, now I got it. First, I suggest you to got source code from subversion - https://svn.netxms.org/public/netxms/trunk. All Java sources located under src/java. Console is written on Eclipse platform, so plugin development is just a normal Eclipse plugin development process, which is well documented on Eclipse web site - www.eclipse.org. If you have questions, ask them on forum in development section.

What do you mean by "develop with it"? I didn't get the question.

Hi!

It's not necessary to create 4 rules in event processing policy - you could create only one rule for all DCIs, you just need to configure it right.  I suspect that maybe you made some mistake when configuring event processing rules, possibly you have created alarm key which is identical for all DCIs. Typical configuration for alarm generation include setting alarm key in a way that it will be unique for each DCI. For example, I prefer to use alarm key DC_%i_%5 - macro %i will be expanded into node object's id, and %5 into DCI id.

Very strange. Just try to compile this MIB with all others and got a lot of entries under .1.3.6.1.4.1.789. Attached is a screenshot from my MIB browser.
Just in case - try to find local copy of netxms.mib on your workstation and delete it - may be console due to some problem does not update it.

Hi!

Did you put resulting netxms.mib into correct place - should be d:\netxms\var\mibs in your case? By default, nxmibc creates output file in current directory. You should either move resulting file to correct location or use -o option for nxmibc. Also, don't forget to restart management console after MIB compilation - MIB tree synchronization with server occurs only at login.

Hi!

I've put new version of the console on web site. It should work with 1.0.4 server.

Hi!

Could you please provide more details - configuration of all 4 DCIs, how policy looks like, what actual values for DCIs?

Best regards,
Victor

Hi!

By default, hosts are pinged 4 times per minute (every 15 seconds). You can change this by adding PacketRate parameter to PING section. For example, configuration like this:

*PING
PacketRate = 12
Target = 137.133.31.15:NO_GW

will cause agent to ping targets every 5 seconds.

You can see all ping times by creating separate DCI for Icmp.LastPingTime parameter and collecting it with same intervals as ping rate. Then you will be able to see all ping times as values of this DCI.
