General Support / Help converting a net-snmp file
June 24, 2015, 12:01:40 PM
Hi, for a bit of software I use (Brekeke SIP server), they have given the configuration for net-snmp, but I've no idea how to get this to work with NetXMS. Could anyone help? I presume it's a poll instead of a trap, as what it pull is status reports.

Acquire the SIP server information

Add the following lines in the file "snmpd.conf".
  --------------------------------------------------------------------------
    view systemview included .1.3.6.1.4.1.8072.1.3.1
    extend .1.3.6.1.4.1.8072.1.3.1 info /usr/java/jdk/bin/java -cp /tomcat/webapps/sip/WEB-INF/lib/ondosip.jar svctl localhost info 5
  --------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Note: In this example, java program path is /usr/java/jdk/bin/java and Brekeke SIP Server's installation directory is /tomcat/webapps/sip)


The above method will return the following internal information:

  --------------------------------------------------------------------------
  startup-time
  life-length
  sip-packet-total
  stacked-packet
  session-active-invite
  session-peak
  registered-record
  thread-active-cnt
  java-use-memory
  java-free-memory
  java-total-memory
  java-max-memory
  --------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ok am I missing the blindingly obvious?
Can you add a background to a status map (not a normal map)?

General Support / Multiple Polling and alerts
March 28, 2014, 04:27:59 PM
Hi I'm having problem with Status polling.
I have multiple services, some critical, so normal and some other bits of kit that needs to be monitored.
In summary I have:
Created 6 New Events & 3 Processing rules as well as 3 templates
The event processing has different event processing
Critical Site I have left as the default with email to Group A and Group B
Non Critical, just Group A
Other Devices Group A and Group C
I created 3 templates.
I removed the standard Status poller from all the monitored systems and applied the new templates to the relevant systems.
They are showing as correct when I check a nodes data collection with the correct event processing.
*****
Now the issue
The systems are still using the default alert i.e. what should email Group A and Group C is still defaulting to Group A and Group B.
So a couple of questions, is it possible to have different status polling for nodes with different processing/ ig so how do I go about it?

Thanks guys.

General Support / Auto login to Web interface
March 04, 2014, 02:30:45 PM
Hi guys, hopefully a simple one.
Can the web interface be configured to autologin?
I've tried various methods of posting in the url, such as
http://username:password@mysever:8080/nxmc
and
http://myserver:8080/nxmc?username=name&password=password
but neither seem to work.
Is it possible to do this?

General Support / H_PdhCounterValue in event logs.
October 03, 2013, 06:49:08 PM
Ok I admt this is my fault!
I've been tidying up and adding loads of new counters (mainly WMI) and removing lots of old ones (NetXMS) and now my event logs are getting hit with the below error.

H_PdhCounterValue: PDH Error 800007D5 in call to PdhCollectQueryData (No data to return.)

I'm trying to work out what's causing it so I could do with a little guidance of where to look. Do I still need to set items in the Agent config for Perfmon, even if I'm now using WMI?

Thanks again guys.

General Support / Help with WMI
April 24, 2013, 11:19:22 AM
This sin't really an area I deal with, so some hand holding is really needed!

How do I query a value from WMI? I knwo the cmd I need, but have no idea how to set it up in the agent and then in the data collection configurator.

The cmd you would run on the local machine is:

wmic OS Get DataExecutionPrevention_SupportPolicy

it will return a value of 0 -3 and I have no problem getting this to alarm etc, it just the actual config I can't work out.

thanks as always guys.

General Support / Registry keys
April 23, 2013, 02:39:07 PM
Is there a way to watch for a registry key change?
We have an app that seems to be changing a registry key, but can't work out under what circumstances it does it.

thanks,

General Support / Image libary
September 20, 2012, 06:21:11 PM
Just made the jump from the old legacy version to the new and apart from a few agent permission issues going well and I like the newer look.
Just a quick question, as a can't find it in the Wiki, the image library used for Network maps, what format is best e.g. 32x32 ico? or 64x64 jpg?

Thanks and once again good work...

General Support / Export SNMP traps
May 08, 2012, 12:23:20 PM
version 1.0.13

Hi, I was wondering if the SNMP trap logs can be exported in any way.
Just a simple issue that my varbinds are so long, I can't fit all the detail on the screen, so can't see what to set up.

General Support / Logwatch - i must be missing something
December 16, 2011, 05:17:18 PM
Trying to get a logwatch on a custom Eventlog (Server 2003) and no matter what I try I can't seem to get it to work. I'm sure I'm missing something obvious.

MasterServers = 10.32.3.49
LogFile = {syslog}
FileStore = C:\NetXMS\var
SubAgent = ecs.nsm
SubAgent = ping.nsm
SubAgent = portcheck.nsm
SubAgent = winperf.nsm
SubAgent = wmi.nsm
SubAgent = logwatch.nsm

*LOGWATCH
Parser = C:\NetXMS\tvdevicefail.xml


............................

<parser>
<file>C:\WINDOWS\System32\config\TVEvent.evt</file>
<rules>
   <rule>
   <match>*</match>
   <id>137</id>
   <level>2</level>
   <source>Televantage</source>
   <event>100065</event>
   </rule>
      <rule>
      <match>*</match>
      <id>106</id>
      <level>4</level>
      <source>Televantage</source>
      event>100066</event>
      </rule>
</rules>
</parser>


I can generate automatically the 2nd event, but no matter what I try, I don't seem to receive it in NetXMS. Am I missing something very obvious, does it have to set up a DCI? If so, what on earth would the parameters be?

Thanks once agian guys and keep up the good work.

General Support / Endit a .bat file so XMS can alert
September 27, 2010, 05:36:28 PM
We currently run a batch file to warn of impending doom (ok when a system is down).
Is there a way to get NetXMS to run this (or an internal version), but put the message in the highlighted section, so it would say 'Server %m is down'

I'm no programmer, so simple is best ;-)

@echo off

c:\Rcmd \\exchange1 osql -S exchange1 -U sa -P ourpassword -Q "insert into VGSMDB..loglog (destination, content) values ('Majors','Server is back up and running.')"

pause


Thanks.

General Support / Invalid network mask
July 22, 2010, 06:14:09 PM
I'm getting an error on one of my servers saying:

Invalid network mask 255.255.252.0 on....should be 255.255.255.0

But it SHOULD be 255.255.252.0 as I want this class of subnet.

Any ideas what's causing it?

General Support / Unable to upgrade - Table locks?

Help, I've upgrading the server to the latest version and have a problem, it won't upgrade and now I have an unusable system.

This is the error I'm getting.

General Support / Free Application memory
August 13, 2009, 05:52:41 PM
Quite a complex one and not sure if this is even possible.

On a standard Windows 32bit system, the system will allocate 2gb address space to Kernal, 2gb to apps (unless you do /3gb which then 3gb is allocated to app, 1gb to kernal)

Is there a way to see how the address space free for apps?

General Support / Help configuring Perfcounter
July 14, 2009, 06:06:20 PM
Our systems install custom performance counter, but I'm having trouble getting the to work via NetXMS.
I can see them in performance monitor ok and I've used some of the sql ones on this site and they are ok, but I think I'm not configuring these custom ones correctly (it's all guess work, I'm a telephony guy, not a server guy)

This is the line I'm adding under *perf
Counter =  PhoneSystemDevices.RTPRelaysinuse:"\Phone System Devices\RTP Relays in Use":60:A:INT:"Number of Active RTP Calls"

but when I go to add it via @systemagent, it's not visable. I'm sure it's something stupid I'm missing.

Attached is a copy paste from Perfmonitor, if it helps.

Feature Requests / "Floating" Windows.
September 04, 2008, 02:23:04 PM
I'm no programmer, so not sure if this is possible. But in many apps, you can drag open windows, out of the bounds of the master program.
For example, if I open Object broswer, I cannot drag it onto the 2nd monitor, if NetXMS is on the primary monitor. this would allow me to get much more info on my screens.

General Support / SNMP Seperating a VarBinds
August 26, 2008, 06:46:13 PM
I'm new to SNMP and NetXMS and I've got most things I want working ok so far.

I'm now struggling with seperating a trap out. If I can get this I can work out the rest.
In the Log the bit I'm interested appears in the Varbinds, but I can't work out how ot filter each one to create a seperate event for each. At the moment I report on the trap as an issue, but can't say for example "Port 1 is down" as I can't seperate Port 1 from Port 2.
An example trap is below, but how do I set it up so that I can alert on each seperatly? (not full varbind, this is the key bit)

.1.3.6.1.4.1.4111.1.2.2.1.1.1.0=='Port ID:1'
.1.3.6.1.4.1.4111.1.2.2.1.1.1.0=='Port ID:2'
