I've done some digging and found out that I can indeed install the extra LSI addons on esxi that are needed to do queries using ssh. So I'll be making some parsing scripts and getting the data plotted in netxms. I plan to do the same for VMware montoring using VMwares own perl kit. There are plenty of nagios examples online and I expect no problems in engineering this for netxms.

Thanks for the pointer to ConnectionPoolMaxSize, tried increasing to 50 (from 20) and it looks like it stopped the message. Too bad it is not tied to the timeout problem with network maps. Few months back this message wasnt appearing which worries me a bit because apart from reducing number of DCI and history the only major change I can think of is turning on the syslog server. Will have to keep on testing, too bad the network creation sometimes works great but most of the time there is the timeout problem - what is really strange, creating layer 2 topology from a node opens network map stright ahead...

Hi! To use function from library script, you should use "use" operator in your transformation script, like following: use LibraryScript; return library_function($1); assuming you have script in library named LibraryScript like this: sub library_function(x) { return x * 2; } Best regards, Victor

Excellent. Thanks!

Hi! Currently no. Goes to feature requests Best regards, Victor

A follow up for others who face the same problem. I used rinetd to bind port 4701 from dmz to the internal netxms server. Works like a charm. Thanks again.

Well, that network drive before even become network is a local for a machine. You can check that computer for a storage space by either using nxagent or SNMP. If that's not possible you can always attach the network drive to a computer and check it there.

Nice to hear! This crash was one of the strangest problems I had to debug with NetXMS - different platforms, crashes differently, only one thing in common - MySQL backend... As for what I've fixed - I add a mutex around calls to mysql_stmt_data_seek and mysql_stmt_fetch. Under some conditions two threads call them on different statements, but same MySQL connection. I was thinking that because I'm using mysql_stmt_store_result to cache statement result locally, they are independent, but seems they are not. Best regards, Victor

Hi! My console normally uses around 100MB, but my MIB file is much smaller. I agree with you that MIB file can be loaded into memory on first access, not after start. Will change it. Best regards, Victor

NetXMS server uses IP address resolved from host name (or IP address) specified as "primary host name" in node properties. You can see it in overview page as "Primary IP". Best regards, Victor

Hi! All ServiceCheck parameters just connects over TCP to target and do some handshaking. If I understand correctly you need to monitor local processes? Then you can just use Process.Count to check that required processes are running. Best regards, Victor

Hi! You can check that current string value differs from previous value by using "diff" threshold. But this will not work as you need - you won't be able to check what part of string was changed and so identify what service is not running. Better solution here would be instance discovery or tables - but this requires list or table DCI with all services, which is not available either. My recomendation is to wait for 1.2.12 release - I will add Service list and table support to agent and you'll be able to configure what you need without additional workarounds. Best regards, Victor

Thanks for nailing it, I'll include fix in next release. Best regards, Victor

Thanks Alex. Yes, all i need is to make sure those services are up and running. I don't need to install the agent. Regards.

Hello, is it possible to insert bulk data from an excelsheet or csv-file to a mapping table? Best regards Georg

Thank you for response Nikk

Seems fine. Make sure you have "LogFailedSQLQueries=yes" in netxmsd.conf (it's enabled by default) and check log file for failed queries.

Thanks for the explanation. I have completely skipped rsyslog configuration and then tried to send TCP with the @@ parameter in the rsyslogd.conf too. After correctly setting rsyslogd.conf file to send UDP the syslog is filling as expected. Now I have to explore syslog more to set forwarding only for nxagent/desired events. With regards, Milan Sperl

tried 2 ways: 1: add "DebugLevel = 5" to netxmsd.conf 2: Add -D5 to commandline when starting it. Both do not result in extra text in the log. It does work for the agent btw.... I'll try the server console way I fixed the initial problem though; apparently the action never got executed. I'm still trying to figure out why but I guess it's because of the order.. I put the event action on the top. I guess there's a rule halfway that stops the events from being processed any further. I added the action to the existing "SERVICE_DOWN" event and now it works like a charm.

Anyone else having this problem?
