NetXMS Support Forum

I couldn't find this in any documentation or on the boards...
Was wondering if it is possible to trigger an alert if a specific software package version has changed?  For instance if SERVER X has IE 10.1.1400 and it updates, then reads IE 11.0.0000.  Can that trigger an alert?

Thanks in advance!

Victor,

I had the server reg enabled, but thanks for the help.  It was driving me crazy.  I will look for the next build.

Thanks!

So, I have battled this issue a lot.  I have never gotten it working and I really need to figure out how.  When I indicate I want the agent to register manually with NetXMS, I fire up the nxagentd with the -r <server>.  Sounds simple enough... so why for the love of all that is holy can't I get this to work?  I have tried -r with the ip and the dns name.  I have tailed my server log and see no activity whatsoever.

If installed the latest version of the agent (also running latest build of the server) and I did see a moment where the agent tried to download a config file from the server (the -M)... so that seemed to work, though i didn't have a valid file there for it... which I would love to do but haven't read up enough on it yet to know... I digress.

So does anyone know any reason the -r wouldn't work.  Like I said, I see no indications that it is even attempting to do it.  Thanks so much in advance!

No, I just did an in place upgrade over 1.2.6 and it stopped working shortly after.  Through an agent/proxy, it does not work.. directly it does.

It seems with the latest build, I am no longer able to query SNMP via an proxy agent/host.  Example:

NETXMS Server ----> AGENT w/ SNMP Proxy---->SNMP Device

Queries directly to an SNMP from the NETXMS server appear to work still....

Anyone else seeing this?

Thanks,

I tried doing this... nada.  The instructions are not totally clear, so no doubt I am doing something wrong, but looking at the JAVA code, it looks like it loads the image file (assumed to be the netxms_login.dat) into a variable and calls if present.  Otherwise the standard logo appears.  Has anyone had any luck doing this?  Are there any other undocumented tips for the WebUI?  Like can you change other features, the title of the app, etc?  Thanks in advance all!

Thanks Victor... I looked everywhere... so I thought.  Sorry for the delayed reply... forgot I posted this to be perfectly honest.

I apologize if I missed this somewhere, but is there an easy way to get NetXMS to wait until two missed pooling cycles pass before considering a node "down".  I have one location that has squirly internet and I get about 30 notifications a day.  I just want to know if the event lasts more than one pass.  This would be the built-in up/down status.  Not on a specific service or rule I have built.  As far as I can tell, it looks like I would need to disable the pooling and look for my own data.

Thanks Alex!

A number of the agent download links are broken.  Unix/Debian 32 bit (netxms-agent_1.2.0_i386.deb) for example is no longer accessible.  Anyone?

Same here.  Can confirm, ensured the port 8080 was free, reinstalled... same issue.  No nxhttpd config in /etc, no war files, nada.

I really like this product and hope I can get it to do something other than just the "Status".  I have loaded custom mibs (compiled fine).  I see the item in the tree... when I add any snmp item, it always changes to UNSUPPORTED.  I am not sure what the deal is.  I have tried custom, generic calls.. all the same.  When I check the device config, it connects with snmp fine, pulls the interface names, determines the type (in this case Sonicwall).  Every time it says...

But when I add any OID, I get "Status of DCI:<num> (SNMP: <oid>) Changed to UNSUPPORTED"

What am I missing?  Thanks in advance.
