    Multiple search bases can be used separated by semicolon (;) symbol. Configuration looks OK. You can check server log on 4 lvl.

    Hi, Error message "Table 'metadata' already exists" suggests that you are trying to initialize same database after unsuccessful initialization attempt, so it is not possible to determine root cause. Please drop existing database, create a new one, run nxdbmgr init once, and post it's output. Best regards, Victor

    Hi, there could be multiple reasons for that - firewall issues, no SNMP devices within subnets (needed for passive discovery), etc. Active discovery can take long time if subnets are big. You can try to set debug level to 6 and check messages with DiscoveryPoller prefix. Best regards, Victor

    If you are looking for a 95th percentile for all interfaces you are collecting data for, you can probably use the same type of instance discovery you are using for monitoring those interfaces to create the 95th DCIs. As part of that 95th instance discovery, you can pass parameters to the script. For example if your script is called "myScript" you could call it as "myScript("{instance}")" to pass the instance value through. That should allow you to locate the DCI to pull the data for the calculation from. Alternatively, you can configure a custom attribute on each node that lists all interfaces you care about. You can then read in that custom attribute in your script.

    Configure the NetXMS agent on the server as a proxy. Ensure the firewall is configured to allow SNMP connections from that server agent's IP address. Place the server and firewall in the same zone in NetXMS. Configure the server node in NetXMS as the communications proxy for that zone. That should allow you to poll the firewall via the server. You can add switches into that zone as well and they'll be polled via the server agent.

    Most of the time you can fix this problem by uninstalling the Java runtime and then reinstalling it all over again. Most of the time you can fix this problem by uninstalling the Java runtime and then reinstalling it all over again. In a nutshell, the instructions show you how to make a System Variable for Java called _JAVA_OPTIONS with the value Xmx512M. This sets a global maximum heap memory size for Java. You can solve this by: Open the Control Panel Go to System Go to Advanced Systems Properties Then Environment Variables In System Variables, click Add New Variable Name: _JAVA_OPTIONS New Variable Value: -Xmx512M Click OK That's it, your Java program should now be able to execute properly. For those interested, Java -Xmx/s is the configuration parameter that control the amount of memory Java uses. Xmx sets the maximum heap memory size Xms sets the minimum heap memory size

    Hi Guys. I'm having trouble setting up the WebAPI for use with Grafana (v5.2.2). When I try to setup the Data Source with the below parameters (screenshot attached): URL:    http://fahad-dell-desktop.fy.it.cx:8100/    (I have set it to use 8100 during setup. ) Access: Server (default) Basic Auth (checked) With Credentials (checked) (all SSL/TLS related options unchecked) User: admin Password: <entered correctly> I ran a packet capture on my Grafana server to capture the request and response and they are posted below: Request: POST /sessions HTTP/1.1 Host: fahad-dell-desktop.fy.it.cx:8100 User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_13_6) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/69.0.3497.42 Safari/537.36 Content-Length: 0 Accept: application/json, text/plain, */* Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate Accept-Language: en-US,en;q=0.9,fr;q=0.8 Authorization: Basic <Hash Removed form Post> Content-Type: application/json;charset=utf-8 Origin: http://ubuntu-server.fy.it.cx:3100 Referer: http://ubuntu-server.fy.it.cx:3100/datasources/edit/1 X-Forwarded-For: 192.168.100.202, 192.168.100.202 X-Grafana-Nocache: true X-Grafana-Org-Id: 1 Response HTTP/1.1 405 HTTP method POST is not supported by this URL Date: Tue, 21 Aug 2018 12:07:27 GMT Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 Cache-Control: must-revalidate,no-cache,no-store Content-Length: 364 Server: Jetty(9.2.19.v20160908) <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"/> <title>Error 405 HTTP method POST is not supported by this URL</title> </head> <body><h2>HTTP ERROR 405</h2> <p>Problem accessing /sessions. Reason: <pre> HTTP method POST is not supported by this URL</pre></p><hr><i><small>Powered by Jetty://</small></i><hr/> </body> </html> It's evident that Grafana is correctly trying to Post to the /sessions URL (as mentioned in the wiki https://wiki.netxms.org/wiki/Web_service_API) but the WebAPI is saying POST is not an allowed method for /sessions. UPDATE OK so it turns out my Web API war file wasn't set up correctnly (typo in jetty-web.xml). Fixing that resolved the issue. [image: Screen Shot 2018-08-21 at 15.07.36.png]

    You need to set the Server Configuration variable "EnableZoning" to 1 and restart the NetXMS server. Cheers

    @victor said in Unknown Node Link in bussines Services: Hi, Do you have any service checks below node link? They are needed to do actual service status calculation. If you have at least one, check it's status. If it's unknown most likely you have an error in check script. Best regards, Victor Hi Victor, How service checks do the calculation if Nodelink doesnt link to my main node in infrastructure ?, i think the first step before creating service checks is how we connect the nodelink to main link. if not how do it get the value ? can u show me the correct script, because i just follow what the manual guide say about create bussines services. best regards, Kevin
