Is node_agent real executable or shell script? If it is a shell script, then executable name will be sh (or bash, ksh, etc. - whatever your shell is), so Process.Count(node_agent) will always return 0 - because it will look for executable named node_agent. You can find processes by command line using Process.CountEx, like this:

Process.CountEx(".*","^node_agent")

Please note, that Process.CountEx uses regular expressions to find matching processes.

Hello!

Looks like some of the system functions has misleading names. We have:

1. Actions on server (configurable under Control Panel -> Actions): it's an actions server can perform as a result of event processing. These actions can only be used in event processing policy.

2. Actions on agent (configurable in agent's configuration file via Action or ActionShellExec parameters): it's a predefined commands agent can execute upon request.

3. Object tools (configurable via Control Panel -> Object Tools): something which can be executed by operator on currently selected node in console. Object tools can be:

a) Command - local command execution (executed on same machine where netXMS console is running);
b) Action - predefined action execution on agent
c) SNMP table - get data from SNMP
d) Agent table - get data from agent
e) Open URL - open given URL in embedded browser



If you wish to run something on remote machine via agent, you should:

1. Define action on agent (using Action or ActionShellExec - if you wish to use shell functionality like output redirection, you should use ActionShellExec).

2. Depending on your need: if you wish to run something automatically, as a reaction to event, then:
2a. Define server action (Control Panel -> Actions) of type "execute action on remote agent", enter name of agent's action into "Action" field;
2b. Add your server action to event processing policy.

If you wish to be able to run something on remote machine manually, via "Tools" menu:
2a. Create new object tool (Control Panel -> Object Tools) of type "Action", enter name of agent's action into "Action" field.

Hope this helps!

Hi!

Unfortunately, it's not possible with standard NetXMS functionality. You should either write your own tool which will analyze list of processes on target machine and send data to NetXMS server in some way (using nxpush or nxevent for example), or use NetXMS agent instead of SNMP to monitor processes on target machine - NetXMS agent allows you to identify processes by executable name or command line.

Hi!

It's a bug. I'll fix it soon.

Hi!

"&" characters prepends character which will be used as keyboard shortcut when tool menu navigated via keyboard. For example, if you open object's context menu via "context menu" key on keyboard instead of right mouse click, you'll see characters prepend with "&" underlined, and pressing appropriate keys will select corresponding menu items.

Could you please post output of ps -ef and NetXMS parameter you are using to count your custom processes?

Best regards,
Victor

You should define action on agent, and than define tool to execute that action in console via Control Panel -> Object Tools.

To define custom action, add to agent's config:

Action = ActionName:command

Yes, all common performance parameters (CPU utilization, memory usage, disk space) are available for Linux. You only have to have platform subagent (libnsm_linux.so) loaded - it is done automatically by default. If you just start NetXMS agent on Linux node and don't see available parameters in DCI configuration, do configuration poll on that node - this will update server's cache.

Hello!

Most likely port 4700 is already in use. Try to run command


netstat -atnp | grep 4700


to see what process uses it.

A chto oznachaet "руcсифицирован MUI"? Chem posle etogo Windows ot original'noj English versii otlichaetsja?
Kstati, a v nazvanijah ob'ektov v NetXMS russkie bukvi ispol'zujutsja?

Prishlite pozalujsta screenshot'i togo, chto vidaet walk, i konfiguracii DCI.

Eto ot togo, chto v sisteme slishkom staraja versija dbghelp.dll. Nado polozit' vot etot fail: https://www.netxms.org/download/support/dbghelp.dll v tot-ze katalog gde nahoditsja nxagentd.exe. V sledujuschej versii sdelaju chtobi pravil'naja versija dbghelp.dll installirovalas' vmeste s agentom.

Теоретически конечно возможно. Проблем при этом будет две. Во-первых, сервер при этом надо останавливать. Во вторых, информация о хостах хранится в нескольких таблицах, и их все надо правильно обновить. И следить за изменениями формата базы при обновлении NetXMS.

Как альтернативный вариант, можно написать небольшую утилиту на С или Java, которая через клиентский API будет создавать и обновлять объекты в NetXMS.

Можно, только это будут разные значения. Если использовать конфиг, то параметр будет возвращать среднее значение за минуту, а если использовать PDH.CounterValue, то это будет текущее значение на момент запроса.
