NetXMS Support Forum

Hi

I can't seem to find a logical way to remove a node from a template.

A quick howto would be greatly appreciated.

Even-though the packages work on Wheezy when porting an older version of libssl from squeeze, I would appreciate if we could get native wheezy packages.

There is also a problem with dependencies, as postgresql-8.4 is not standard in newer debian releases. So each time I install netxms, I manually have to modify the packages and change the dependency from postgresql-8.4 to postgresql-9.1

Squeeze is nearing EOL, so perhaps its time to move on? 

I'm also interested in using netsvc, but I can't find it. I've used the deb packages.

Perfect! Really an exciting feature as this will make netxms more appealing for enterprise environments.

If you need someone to do testing, just give me a wink.

Hi Victor, and thanks for your answer.

So one or more of these are not enabled in terms of showing a notification when something goes wrong?

I have used netxms for a while and it performs as expected as long as the poll values don't go red and show error. I only discover that something's wrong when I actually view the values manually.

Hi!

System will generate events in case anything goes wrong with the node - you can handle these events and create alarms, send notifications, etc. Most important events are following:

SYS_NODE_DOWN - entire node is down (NetXMS server cannot communicate using any allowed means)
SYS_NODE_UNREACHABLE - NetXMS server cannot communicate with the node because of intermediate router failure
SYS_NODE_UNMANAGED - someone put node into unmanaged state
SYS_NODE_UNKNOWN - status of the node is unknown
SYS_IF_DOWN - network interface is down
SYS_IF_UNKNOWN - status if network interface is unknown (usually because of disconnected agent)
SYS_IF_DISABLED - network interface was disabled
SYS_SERVICE_DOWN - network service is down
SYS_SERVICE_UNKNOWN - network service state cannot be determined (usually because of agent failure)
SYS_AGENT_UNREACHABLE - NetXMS agent is unreachable
SYS_SNMP_UNREACHABLE - SNMP agent is unreachable
SYS_DCI_UNSUPPORTED - DCI goes to "unsupported" state
SYS_SCRIPT_ERROR - NXSL script execution error
SYS_SMTP_FAILURE - server was unable to sent e-mail notification
SYS_SMS_FAILURE - server was unable to sent SMS notification

Best regards,
Victor

Hi

I'm having mixed feelings when using netxms as I have several times thought that everything was working , and when I view the data from one node it can be marked as red for whatever reason (one example is that the poll is not supported on that node, or the netxms agent is not functioning properly). I suspect that it might be a user error on my part, but has anyone else experienced this and know how to avoid it? I really need to know if a poll has failed. It should trigger a notification.

Hi

One of the biggest issues that holds netxms back is the lack of AD/LDAP feature for authentication.

Are there any plans to introduce this functionality soon?

Thanks Victor.

Figured it out myself a short time after my post.

I created an action on the console side, hooked it up to a trigger which ran action "varnish.restart".

The nxconfig file contained the following:

Action = varnish.restart:/etc/init.d/varnish restart

Worked like a charm. Just posting my findings as a reference to others that stumble upon this post.

marking this post as solved.

Hi

I have been trying to configure remote actions on agent host.

What I am trying to accomplish is to restart a service if it stops responding. The service is called Varnish.

I have defined an action like this in the nxagentd.conf

Action = VarnishReload: service varnish restart

And trying to execute it by calling this on the server:

Action:VarnishReload

The netxms server log shows the following

[11-Jun-2012 20:47:35] *actions* Executing on "78.XX.XXX.XXX": "Action:VarnishReload"

However, nothing happens. What am I doing wrong?

Hi

I`ve had a look at installing the nxagent on my dd-wrt flashed router which runs linux. Since there are noe ipkg packages available, im a bit at a loss. Has anyone done anything like this before, or can point me to a ipkg package?

Hi

After installing netxms-agent_1.2.0_amd64.deb all seems well until reboot where the agent does not start as a normal service.

I have checked for /etc/default/ settings in case the agent needs to be told to start on boot, but I have not found anything.

The systems in question are debian squeeze, and ubuntu 10.04 LTS.

Any ideas on what`s wrong?
