General / DCI poll time out, record a value
November 29, 2019, 10:36:18 PM
I'm trying to figure out how to get a DCI poll to record a "1" for a timeout rather than no value, and thus no change in a graph.


I've got a simple transform setup to change a modulation value of a radio to its capacity. but when the link is down due to weather, and the poll doesn't complete, no data get recorded. on the graph, it appears as though everything is fine when in fact it is offline.

here is my transform script.

if ($1 == 1) return 475000000;
if ($1 == 2) return 950000000;
if ($1 == 3) return 1930000000;
if ($1 == "") return 1;



Thanks!

General Support / database writer possibly hanging
April 19, 2019, 10:13:26 PM
I've been having a problem where my netxms service seems to be running but stops recording data after an hour or two.     I've tried turning off discovery, and playing with the collector values, i haven't had any success in resolving this.   

here is what my queues look like in the morning after its freezes up:

netxmsd: show queues
Data collector                   : 0
DCI cache loader                 : 0
Template updates                 : 0
Database writer                     : 1146
Database writer (IData)          : 4742949
Database writer (raw DCI values) : 34542
Event processor                     : 799
Event log writer                     : 656
Poller                                    : 1181
Node discovery poller            : 0
Syslog processing                 : 0
Syslog writer                        : 0
Scheduler                            : 0


when it's working normally, my raw DCI values will jump to 10,000 or so, but quickly go back to zero, Idata will do the same even log writer seems to fluctuate up to 1,000 sometimes and very slowly comes back. usually, I see less than 100 for the log writer.

where should I check next?

Thanks!

General Support / top 5 or 10 busy APs
April 16, 2019, 06:47:12 PM
I'm trying to figure out how to build a transform script to give us the top 5 or 10 busy access points on our network, or all access points with an airtime utilization over X amount for a given time period.    7 pm to 11 pm for example.   

I haven't had any luck searching around the forum for this, any suggestions?


Thank you!!!

I'm looking for a way to add up all of the wireless clients connected to an AP, then show this in a dashboard.   the tricky part I can't figure out, is there a way to make this dynamic so as we build our network further, it is automatically sucked into the software?    I've got auto bind setup for an AP template, maybe a way to use the template to build this?


Thanks in advance!

last few weeks i've ran into some really poor performance, i think it is database related.

I started to see error writing to database, full. errors in the debug screen after the service was started (sorry i didn't note the exact error) but it was resolved by shorting retention timers and reducing some nodes.    I changed the log retention time from 90 to 1 day to help clear it up, the low space error stopped. 

the attached screen shot was taken from the server while restarting the server process. it takes about 30 minutes to start, mostly posting this message over and over. a couple weeks ago it was about a minute to start. i've only got 1 user account, if this is some how related to that.   the server sits in a VM and all other functions and VMs seem to be ok.

i'm using 2.1.2, windows 7 OS, and sql server 2012.

any ideas what i can do to restore previous performance?


Thanks in advance!
