    Finally I've done it with Hook:ConfigurationPoll and I check for both "node name" and "Interface name" as well. If it matches both of them then I set Interface Expected State to Ignore interfaces = GetNodeInterfaces($node); foreach (interface : interfaces) { if ( $node->name ~="(?i)Node1Name" && interface->name ~= "(?i)tun.*" ){ SetInterfaceExpectedState(interface, "IGNORE"); }else if ( $node->name ~="(?i)Node2Name" && interface->name ~= "(?i)tun.*|vmnet.*|docker.*|docker_gwbridge|vboxnet.*" ){ SetInterfaceExpectedState(interface, "IGNORE");} }

    Hi! Yes, it is possible, for the available requests have a look at this documentation page: https://www.netxms.org/documentation/adminguide/advanced.html#web-api-rest-api. The WebApi is currently in early development but it will soon be updated with many more features! Regards, Eriks

    Hi, I'm sorry. Thank you for pointing out. Windows teaming + NLB unicast mode was the cause. Because the NLB's unicast mode shares the same MAC address, packets arrive on each interface, so packets received by each interface were duplicated. Since the connection destination switch was compatible with IGMP snooping, solving it by enabling IGMP snooping and making NLB from unicast mode to IGMP multicast. Thanks for the advice. Thank you very much.

    As gdodd said, you will need a tool like https://nxlog.co/products/nxlog-community-edition to forward Windows Event Log messages to a syslog server, as Windows Events and syslog (which is used on pretty much anything but Windows) are completely different formats. Depending on what you want to do, using Logwatch may be sufficient. The NetXMS agent monitors the Event Log for specific messages. Once such a message is found, the agent triggers a NetXMS Event on the NetXMS server. Those events can then be processed via NetXMS Event Processing Policies for alerting or actions. For our use case, Logwatch is all we need (i.e. we're not using nxlog or any other tool like it). But if you really want/need to forward every log message from a Windows server to a centralised syslog server for storage/processing, you'll have to use a third party tool like the one mentioned.

    Hi all, For anybody reading, I think I've fixed the issue. Seems to have been the firewall; I'll list all the troubleshooting steps anyway just in case they help anybody else: Noticed Java listening on tcp6 (IPv6), switched Java to bind to IPv4 using this command: export _JAVA_OPTIONS="-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true" I could't telnet to the server on 4710, which lead me to look at the firewall. Allowed all traffic on the local interface with the following: firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=trusted --add-interface=lo Restarted the reporting engine and netxmsd, waited around 30 seconds and the Report Server perspective loaded correctly: [image: PWTOEEQ.png]

    @zachow said in installing on Centos 7: @91jme said in installing on Centos 7: You may find the directory is actually "/usr/local/lib/netxms/". Thanks for the suggestion. I took a look, and there is a .ddr file, but this doesnt seem to be the DB file. (I have attached screenshot) I havent changed any settings regarding the DB. Any other suggestions? Have you already tried starting the daemon as root? "sudo /usr/local/bin/nxagentd -d"?

    The only option I see is to set custom attributes with maintenance entrance time on EnterMaintenance($node) function execution. Create a script that will go through all nodes every minute and will check the custom attribute with maintenance start and will initiate maintenance leave in case if the note is in maintenance more than an hour.

    Hi, from your description it's hard to tell if that was misconfiguration or a wrong data received from agent. If you get this issue next time check raw data of parameter and event log for the node for generated events. Best regards, Victor

    High number of active alarms can also be an issue as server will cache them on startup. But usually you should not have many active alarms, if you do it's likely some flaw in your event processing logic. Best regards, Victor
