A new update: After about 5 weeks the last missing subnet yesterday suddenly appeared - no changes have been made from me … But I also realized that some devices are still missing, eg. the firewall device of one of the subnets is still not shown, although it can be pinged. If anyone has an idea what NetXMS is doing so that this problems happen, you are welcome to give me an update what I can do to get correct results in the device discovery. Thank you, Klaus

Hi Victor, I was wondering if someone can maybe help me with the script issue I am having. I have the following script to only trigger and alarm email when the device is offline for longer that the specified time configured in the Thresholds: return ($node->runtimeFlags & 0x0004) ? 1 : 0; The problem I am having is that I get about 100+ emails when a site goes down for power failure or something. I was looking at another thread where there was a script used for filtering alarms. https://www.netxms.org/forum/configuration/dependency-script-based-on-infrastructure/ Code used: nparents = GetNodeParents($node); // get parent objects of tested node foreach(i : nparents) { if (i->type == 5) // if it is infrastructure object (container)... { oparents = GetObjectParents(i); //... get parents of the object too... foreach(j : oparents) { if (j->type == 5) //... and if it is infrastructure object (container) again... { children = GetObjectChildren(j); //... get object children... foreach(k : children) { if ((k->status == 4) && (classof(k)!="NetObj")) return 0; //... and if the status of any of the children objects is "critical" (bypassing non-node objects) do not take action. } } } } } return 1; // else allow action I have been trying to make this work but have no luck, I think the problem is my layout in NetXMS structure for sites. Attached image is my structure. I have them this way as it makes it easier to view on Status Map. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. [image: Capture.JPG]

Brill thanks Victor- we are running NetXMS on Windows, so may be a little different but I will look into your suggestions. Meanwhile I figured rather than trying to write a clever regex to exclude certain things I could create rules which don't raise events. So I have ended up with something like; <rules> <rule> <match>Error\s\|\sOrder\shas\stimed\sout</match> </rule> <rule> <match>Error\s\|\sRetrieved\sPostcode:\s;</match> </rule> <rule> <match>Error\s\|\s(.*)</match> <event>100050</event> </rule> </rules>

Thank you for the information. I noticed when I run the application/program I was receiving and error.  I will reinstall a fresh copy of Ubunutu and Netxms.  Perhaps I made a mistake, during the installation.    Thank you

Hi, you probably should check database health and performance first - it could be that for some reason database is unable to handle INSERTs for collected data. Also, check that database connection pool is not exhausted (you can check log file for DB connection pool related errors as well as check active pool connections with show dbcp command in server debug console). You may also try to increase value of server configuration parameter DBWriter.DataQueues. Best regards, Victor

Hi, yes, it was fixed in 2.2.13. We also plan release 2.2.14 next week. Best regards, Victor

You can configure your agents in two ways: Agent to Server connection Server to Agent connection Option 1 will require certificates and agent tunnels (see https://www.netxms.org/documentation/adminguide/server-management.html#server-configuration-for-agent-to-server-connection-tunnel-connection). This setup is a bit more involved, but makes a lot of sense if you are connecting to agents behind routers/firewalls which the NetXMS server cannot talk to directly. Option 2 will simply require the NetXMS server be able to talk to your NetXMS agent on TCP port 4700. If you have a VPN between your server and the Agents, that's probably the easiest setup. Just make sure your Windows firewall doesn't block the incoming connection from the NetXMS server to your agent. You won't need the ServerConnection parameter for this either, MasterServers is enough. I recommend reading through the documentation to get a better idea on how the above work: https://www.netxms.org/documentation/adminguide/agent-management.html#

You will want to set an Average per second transformation as per https://www.netxms.org/documentation/adminguide/data-collection.html?highlight=transform#data-transformations

I am pretty sure that is by design, we ran into the same issue quite a while ago. We're presently not using Cache Mode, as Force DCI Polls (especially when you have DCIs you poll once an hour but you want an update "right now") is more important to us than caching on the agent. You can always lodge a feature request on https://track.radensolutions.com. Cheers

Thanks

Tursiops, I haven't played with summary tables yet. i'll check into those. I like your script idea, i'm still getting the hang of scripts, but i'll follow your advice and try and build that. if i get it, i'll post what I've come up with in case anyone else wants this tool. Thank you!!!

Victor, thanks, I have worked my way through the rest of the needed packages and/or set configure options to avoid them (mosquitto for example). Thanks.

"Access denied" error means that current user has no access to user database. Also, before creating user you have to lock user database, like this: s.lockUserDatabase() s.createUser("new_user") s.unlockUserDatabase() Best regards, Victor

See this thread about how to monitor log files: https://www.netxms.org/forum/configuration/find-text-string-within-log-file/

@tursiops said in Can't logon NetXMS Console thru LDAP authentication(Windows AD@Win2008): Your server is probably configured to be case sensitive in regards to usernames (that's the default). The LDAP username is all uppercase, while you're logging in with the name in all lowercase. So either use the all caps name to log in, or set the "CaseInsensitiveLoginNames" server configuration option to "1" and restart your NetXMS server service. Good catch Tursiops. You are absolutely correct, it's the case sensitive issue. It's no problem by using the id with uppercase. The option 'CaseInsensitvieLoginNames' is the perfect resolution for this issue. Very appreciate your support Tursiops.

Hey Guys, I am trying to make SSO to NetXMS web interface with F5 load balancer. I have tried the F5 SSO profiles but couldn't make any of them work, as the login screen does not have any Forms in it. I know there is option to use the Auto Login screen with query containing the username and password - https://wiki.netxms.org/wiki/Autologin_for_Management_Console but this solution makes the username and pass visible in the address bar. Has anyone tried similar implementation? Or is there any Javascript that can be used to automate login through the normal login screen? Any help will be appreciated i have been trying to solve this for some time now Thanks!

I'll check than, thank for report

Thank you, Victor.  that example was a touch more flexible.  great work with NetXMS by the way.  absolute love this program even though I'm still only scratching the surface!

Hi, NetXMS comes with some VMWare MIBs pre-packed: VMWARE-AGENTCAP-MIB.txt VMWARE-CIMOM-MIB.txt VMWARE-ENV-MIB.txt VMWARE-OBSOLETE-MIB.txt VMWARE-PRODUCTS-MIB.txt VMWARE-RESOURCES-MIB.txt VMWARE-ROOT-MIB.txt VMWARE-SRM-EVENT-MIB.txt VMWARE-SYSTEM-MIB.txt VMWARE-TC-MIB.txt VMWARE-VC-EVENT-MIB.txt VMWARE-VCOPS-EVENT-MIB.txt VMWARE-VMINFO-MIB.txt If you add same MIBs them may be just redundant. If you add new MIB files to MIB directory, make sure they have .txt extension - directory compile option only reads txt files. Best regards, Victor

Thanks Victor, putting the wildcards straight in the filename as you suggested worked perfectly; <file>C:\inetpub\wwwroot\website\logs\Log_%Y_%m_%d.txt</file>
