NetXMS Support Forum

thx! is there a ETA for binary/debian build of this next version?

is there a function which I could use in Hook::ConfigurationPoll to disable

routing table polling
network discovery polling
and netxms agent polling

for new nodes?

if (AddrInSubnet($node->ipAddr, "10.16.0.0", "255.255.0.0")) {
return;
}

is this valid syntax?

thx,

is it possible to turn of routing table pollig  by default, e.g.  for s specific sysobjectid or any other filter? or should i do this with a nxshell script?

hi,

Total number of objects: 62219
Number of monitored nodes: 1347
Number of collectable DCIs: 1354

cpu usage is really high, it seems like it's even higher as soon as a console-client connects:

CPU: Intel(R) Pentium(R) Dual  CPU  E2200  @ 2.20GHz

disk io, and memory seems to be ok.

i'm using postgres (tried 8.4 and 9.1) on ubuntu 12.04

what's your recommendation for NumberOf*Pollers?

ok, i'll try this.

a last question to discovery, is a custom filtering possible based on parts of the snmpSysName or dns-name of the node, this would be great, e.g. in hpov we use the prefix N* as discovery/node add filter, because all our network devices sysnames are beginning with "N" or "n".

many thanks.

ok, now i'm getting a lot of "AcceptNewNode", not for the range i'm waiting for, but for nodes in other subnets which also needs more discovery,

AcceptNewNode(10.254.0.80): auto filter - range check result is 0

but this node (10.254.0.80) is no network device, it's a client pc without snmp, is the above message just the notification that this ip is pingable and would be accepted by the filter if it would have snmp running?

i've installed the x64 .deb package on ubuntu 12.04, and started it with the init script (/etc/init.d/netxmsd)

well as above mentioned i've discovered some parts of the subnet, e.g. the router in 10.255.0.0/16.

in my active discovery definition are the ranges

10.255.1.200-10.255.1.254
10.255.2.200-10.255.2.254

this are the ranges where the mgmt-ips of the access switches are. the access switches are pingable from the server hosting the netxmsd and also walkable by snmp (no firewall in path). turning debug to 5 show something called "Discovery poll for node" but just for nodes already added "rereading" their routing tables.

i don't see a discovery of new nodes, is it possible to trigger the active icmp/snmp discovery of a specific range?
is there a limit for the number of entries of "active disocvery targets"?

many thx.

thx a lot, i'll try a compile, if all other hiccups are stashed away

i tested netxmsd with some nodes, now i've extended the active discovery and filter ranges, but somehow no new nodes are added,
"show stat" shows 209 node since 2 days,

active discovery targets are set to ranges like
10.255.1.200-10.255.1.254
10.255.2.200-10.255.2.254

filter is now "open" only "accept node if it has snmp agent" is set, but still no new nodes, any hint on this?

thx.

is it possible to turn off 802.1x polling?

I see a lot of "Checking 802.1x state for" in the logfile.

is it possible to set the default "interface expected state" for new devices?

it would be perfect so set it via a filtering script for example
if the ifAlias, ifName or a other pollable interface property contains a certain string -> set it to UP, DOWN or IGNORE

but if I could change the global default to IGORE this would also be fine, i'll try to recreate our hp-nnm monitoring which currently is monitoring
1500 access-switches, it's really annoying to set the expected interface state to ignore for all access-devices. i've tried it with a sql-query on the
database, it worked but i think there must be a more sophisticated way to do this.

thx
