NetXMS Support Forum

thanks, easy when you know how. 

Hi

How do I increase the maximum number of days to keep DCI collected data as Last Values only goes back 4 days.  Ideally I would like to retain last 14 days.

Thanks

Carl

After some trial and error got some json output from this command:

curl -k -u admin http://netxms:8080/webapi/alarms -X GET -d '{"alarm":"outstanding"}'

It is returning all alarms regardless of whether they are NORMAL, WARNING, CRITICAL but its a start.

Thanks that helped, I also upgraded to v3.7.144 at the same time, if I hit following in a web browser:
http://netxms:8080/webapi/

I see:
{"description":"NetXMS web service API version 3.7.130","version":"3.7.130","build":"3.7-130-gc909bacd30"}

However if I try to use the curl command I got from the netxms page here: https://wiki.netxms.org/wiki/Web_service_API
nothing is returned.

curl -X POST --data '{"login":"admin","password":"xxxx"}' "http://netxms:8080/webapi"

Have you got any examples of correct command?

I am hoping to run a command that will return devices to get their status, ie: UP or DOWN

Hi

I have Windows installation of NetXMS v3.6.300 and would like to try REST API but when I run the following example curl command from https://wiki.netxms.org/wiki/Web_service_API it comes back with the following message:



The normal web interface is working fine.

Is there a guide on setting up REST API on Windows Version?

Thanks

Carl

@pvo, thanks that did the trick.

Hi

I just upgraded from v2.2.17 to v3.6.300 and now all the PingTime monitoring that was working is not and all nodes have alarms being raised with the warning of:

Status of DCI 123 (Internal: PingTime) changed to UNSUPPORTED
Status of DCI 124 (Internal: PingTime) changed to UNSUPPORTED
etc etc...

I have a template which I used to assign to nodes but this is now broken and even tried changing the Data Type from unassigned integer to Integer and then reapplying the template to one node but its still shown as Not Supported so have reverted the change.

Original Template


How do I get the PingTime monitoring to work again?

Thanks

Carl

If I understand that correctly, the Windows server and the NetXMS server are on different networks.
Correct

How is the NetXMS server connecting to the Windows server for SNMP polls?
NetXMS is polling WAN IP which is NAT'd on UDP 161 to remote Windows 2016 server firewall.

Is there a route to allow direct SNMP polls, a port forward through a router/firewall or are you using a proxy?
Correct

Is SNMP Polling enabled for the Windows server? Is the SNMP service running and configured to allow the polls (I believe by default the service will only allow queries from 127.0.0.1)? Does a Configuration Poll confirm that the NetXMS server can poll SNMP on the server at all?
I added the WAN IP of the NetXMS server so it could connect to Windows 2016 box.
Also can poll SNMP from NetXMS Server full configuration OK so I know SNMP is working.
Just can't get the DCI collection on bandwidth to work, guessing its using OID that Windows 2016 does not recognize.

If I could get the NetXMS Agent installed and working over WAN link that might also work, but reading the documentation it looks like a lot of work on certificates and got a bit lost if I am being truthful.

Hi

I have a remote Windows 2016 Server sitting on a different WAN connection to that of the NetXMS Server and thought the easiest option for monitoring the Network traffic was to setup SNMP service on the remote Windows 2016 server and then use NetXMS Data Collection to get the following values:

Inbound traffic on ethernet (bytes/sec)
Outbound traffic on ethernet (bytes/sec)

But on clicking OK the alarm browser records this event twice and then the ethernet interface shows a red icon in the console:

Status of DCI 335 (SNMP: .1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.10.2) changed to UNSUPPORTED
Status of DCI 334 (SNMP: .1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.6.2) changed to UNSUPPORTED

Currently running on v2.2.10 and know I am a few versions out of date.

The same setup on a hardware firewall works fine.

Any pointers in where I am going wrong?

Thanks

Carl

thanks will check it out.

Is there any plans to support SMTP Authentication?
TLS over 587 for example.

Hi

Can the NetXMS Server Configuration Window be shown in the task bar when it loads as I did a silent upgrade yesterday to v2.2.10 and the installation stopped because the window was loaded but hidden somewhere on one of my 3 screens behind one of the many applications I had loaded. I then proceeded to show Desktop which minimized it, at this point I had no idea how to maximize the window or it was hidden anyway because I was in SILENT setup mode.

If you open nxconfig.exe manually and then click Show Desktop there is no way to maximize the window again so have to end the task.

Thanks

Carl

Hi

All my devices are setup on ICMP monitoring only and this morning I had 4 devices showing as down in the console so I forced a poll on each and they were still down but I got no Alarm or a notification to say they were down on email. 

I have a couple of Scheduled tasks that runs nightly which puts all devices into Maintenance mode at 7pm and then leaves Maintenance mode at 8:15am daily.  During the hours of 11pm-8:00am my NetXMS server is sent into Windows Hibernation mode as not used during these hours.

When my pc came up this morning at 8am I could see the devices were still in maintenance mode and for the devices that were down they had a red cross next to them but even forcing the poll resulted in no Alarm or email notification.

I exited maintenance mode and forced a poll but still didn't get a notification email or Alarm that the device was down.

When the devices did come back online I got the email notification of node up.

It looks to me like if the devices are offline in maintenance mode they report in failed state and when you exit maintenance mode and they are still in failed state no alarm or email node down is raised?

Is this a known issue and is there a way to force a Alarm to be raised which would in turn send the email node down notification?

Regards

Carl

Upgraded to 2.2.4 didn't help.

What I found though is if I rename the container and then press enter it fixes the issue.

Also noticed that if I select Help \ About in nxmc.exe window it reports version 2.2.3 but on the splash screen at login it reports 2.2.4

Hi

Why are my containers in error state but the devices below them are not?

Have attached screen shot of issue.
I cleared and terminated all alarms which normally fixes this issue, on this occasion it hasn't helped.

Running on version 2.2.3

Can see 2.2.4 was released yesterday, is this a issue fixed in the newer version?

Thanks

Carl
