Problems with PING subagent after update to V2.2.1
-
Could you please verify that the PING subagent is in the list opened by Right click on pinging node -> Tools -> Info -> Agent -> Subagent list. And that you get this entry in your agent log once it is started:
*I* Subagent "PING" (ping.nsm) loaded successfully (version 2.2.1-14-g375721606) -
I checked that before. Yes subagent is in subagent list (Version 2.2.1 and the value '0x0000000002320A90' in the 4. column).
In agent log file the line:2017.12.08 17:02:18.457 *I* Subagent "PING" (ping.nsm) loaded successfully (version 2.2.1)So the subagent is loaded.
-
Ok and is there anything in the log similar to this line: "Unable to add ICMP ping target from configuration file."?
-
no, nothing like this in the agent log. Not in normal log and not in debuglog.
In debuglog I see lines like this:2017.12.08 16:09:47.364 *D* [VCS-1915] Requesting parameter "Icmp.PacketLoss(gw1.domain1.intern)" 2017.12.08 16:09:47.364 *D* [VCS-1916] Requesting parameter "Icmp.AvgPingTime(gw1.domain1.intern)" 2017.12.08 16:09:47.364 *D* [VCS-1906] Requesting parameter "Icmp.AvgPingTime(gw1.domain2.intern)" 2017.12.08 16:09:47.364 *D* [VCS-1901] GetParameterValue(): result is 0 (SUCCESS) 2017.12.08 16:09:47.364 *D* [VCS-1915] GetParameterValue(): result is 404 (UNKNOWN_PARAMETER) 2017.12.08 16:09:47.365 *D* DataCollector: polling DCI 1779 "Icmp.PacketLoss(gw1.domain3.intern)" 2017.12.08 16:09:47.365 *D* DataCollector: polling DCI 1778 "Icmp.AvgPingTime(gw1.domain3.intern)" 2017.12.08 16:09:47.365 *D* [VCS-1913] GetParameterValue(): result is 0 (SUCCESS) 2017.12.08 16:09:47.365 *D* DataCollector: polling DCI 6386 "Icmp.AvgPingTime(gw1.domain4.intern)" 2017.12.08 16:09:47.365 *D* [VCS-1918] Requesting parameter "Icmp.PacketLoss(gw1.domain3.intern)" 2017.12.08 16:09:47.365 *D* DataCollector: polling DCI 6385 "Icmp.PacketLoss(gw1.domain4.intern)" 2017.12.08 16:09:47.365 *D* [VCS-1906] GetParameterValue(): result is 404 (UNKNOWN_PARAMETER) 2017.12.08 16:09:47.365 *D* [VCS-1919] Requesting parameter "Icmp.AvgPingTime(gw1.domain3.intern)" 2017.12.08 16:09:47.365 *D* [VCS-1921] Requesting parameter "Icmp.PacketLoss(gw1.domain4.intern)" 2017.12.08 16:09:47.365 *D* [VCS-1918] GetParameterValue(): result is 404 (UNKNOWN_PARAMETER) 2017.12.08 16:09:47.365 *D* [VCS-1919] GetParameterValue(): result is 404 (UNKNOWN_PARAMETER)I can send you a debuglog of the pinging agent if that helps. But I can't share it in the forum

Could you, please, provide the output of "nxagentd -C"? Don`t forget to edit out any sensitive data, I am interested specifically in the PING subtree.
-
here the output of the agent on the NetXMS server itself (linux). I had to change a few sensitive data and removed some of the ping targets...
If you need the unchanged output, you can give me another communication channel.config +- CORE | +- DebugLevel | | value: 0 | +- MasterServers | | value: 127.0.0.1 | | value: 172.16.10.45 | | value: nms.domain.intern | +- ListenPort | | value: 4700 | +- LogFile | | value: /var/log/nxagentd.log | +- RequireAuthentication | | value: yes | +- RequireEncryption | | value: yes | +- EnabledCiphers | | value: 1 | +- SharedSecret | | value: replaced | +- MaxSessions | | value: 64 | +- SessionIdleTimeout | | value: 60 | +- FileStore | | value: /opt/netxms/var/nxagentd | +- StartupDelay | | value: 5 | +- EnableSubagentAutoload | | value: yes | +- SubAgent | | value: portcheck.nsm | | value: ping.nsm | | value: logwatch.nsm | | value: ecs.nsm | | value: netsvc.nsm | | value: filemgr.nsm | | value: ssh.nsm | | value: pgsql.nsm | +- ExternalParameter | | value: ServiceCheck.DNS(*):/usr/bin/dig +noall +short @$1 $2 A | grep -c $3 | sed 's/0/x/g;s/[^x]/0/g;s/x/1/g' | +- ExecTimeout | | value: 10000 | +- Action | value: top: /usr/bin/top -s -b -n 1 | value: netstat: /bin/netstat -p --inet | value: IPconfig: /sbin/ifconfig | value: ListUpdates: /usr/bin/zypper list-updates +- filemgr | +- RootFolder | value: /root | value: /opt | value: /etc | value: /usr/src | value: /var/log +- ping +- DefaultPacketSize | value: 46 +- Timeout | value: 2000 +- PacketRate | value: 24 +- Target value: 172.16.10.1:gw1.domain1.intern value: 172.16.50.1:gw2.domain1.intern value: 172.16.41.1:gw4.domain1.intern value: 172.16.101.10:gw10.domain1.intern value: 172.16.90.1:router1.domain1.intern value: 172.16.20.1:gw1.domain5.intern value: 172.16.70.1:gw1.domain4.intern value: 192.168.30.1:gw1.domain3.intern value: 8.8.4.4:dns2.google.com -
Could you try changing the PING subagent section in config to uppercase? As in:
*PING DefaultPacketSize = 46 ... -
-
It shouldn`t change anything, it was just a guess :).
Could you let me know which Linux distribution you are using, what kernel etc... Also, which version of Windows? -

Hi,
we just fixed this bug. If you are building from sources, you can just re-build agent from current "stable-2.2" branch in our repository or replace file src/agent/subagents/ping/ping.cpp with attached one in your current source tree and rebuild. I'll also repack Windows installers.
Best regards,
Victor

Hi Victor
I just replaced the ping.cpp in the src and recompiled the agent on linux. That fixed the problem! Thank you Victor!
Can you please inform, when you have rebuilt the windows agent packages. Then I can replace the other agents with PING subagent in use.
thanks

Hi,
here you can download patched Windows agents: https://netxms.org/download/patches/019/
Best regards,
