NetXMS Forum

I concur, this is the way to go. I'm going to ask the NetXMS team for their input. The company I work for has a support contract. Upgrades would be so simple if we could get this.

I was looking for the server installer for windows and saw that now support is needed for this. That is why i asked if it was no longer free.

is building windows installer for server from source complex task ?

Depends on your experience of course Build itself is straight-forward - there is Visual Studio solution file in the root of source tree, it will handle all the builds. Tricky part is to get all the dependencies (openssl, libcurl, libssh, libjq, libmodbus, libmosquitto, libpcre, database client libraries, breakpad, libmicrohttpd). Some of those are for specific components only, which you can exclude from build if you don't need them.

This is a real damper. Most of the people that I help use the Windows installer

I ran an upgrade last night. Debian repo only has 2.0.4 and not 2.0.5. Please advise.

Thanks Victor

Thanks Victor and to the devs. This looks like a good release as it fixes a few issues that impacted us.

Hi,

I've just upgraded from 1.2.17 to 2.0M1 and now I get the following error when I try to run the administrator console.

---------------------------
Nxmc
---------------------------
Failed to load the JNI shared library "C:\NetXMS\bin\jre\bin\client\jvm.dll".

---------------------------
OK 
---------------------------

I've installed the latest JRE and JDK. But this didn't help. I also tried the 64 bit versions.

I'm using the 64 bit administrator console on Windows 7 64 bit.

Any advise is welcome.

Regards,

R

Victor, the .debs on the download page also don't fully work with debian 7. Below is the output from my test. (note that I do an apt-get install -f after the dpkg -i for fixing deps)

Hi Victor,

I used the netxms repo for the installation. Is the repo still being maintained?

The line in my /etc/apt/sources.list is as follows,

# netxms repo
deb https://www.netxms.org/apt squeeze main

I'd like to use the apt repo because updates are then made much easier.

Regards,

R

@victor said in Установка Netxms 1.2.8 на Debian:

Спасибо, к следующему релизу приведу в порядок пакеты.

Thanks, I'll fix packages until next release.

Hi Victor,

I have just tried to install on a new test server and the same issue came up. Your packages require libssl0.9.8 and Debian 7 has no installation candidate for this lib.

Please advise, as we would like to move to a new server that would allow upgrades to take place via apt. The current state of the mirror is not allowing us to do this.

Regards,

R

Shweet, I'll take a look tomorrow at work.

Install from package:
https://packages.debian.org/squeeze/libssl0.9.8

Thanks, I came right by switching the repo to squeeze, installing the lib and then switching the repos back to wheezy before installing netxms. I'm reporting the issue as the netxms packages are not fixed yet.

@weird said in Установка Netxms 1.2.8 на Debian:

Debian 7 -- это wheezy, а на https://www.netxms.org/apt есть только пакеты, собранные для squeeze.
Оттуда растёт зависимость от libssl0.9.8, которая есть в squeeze, но отсутствует в wheezy.
Добавьте в /etc/apt/sources.list репозиторий squeeze и поставьте libssl0.9.8

Thanks, for this nudge in the right direction. I switched my repo to squeeze, installed the library and then switched back. Netxms and the agent are starting now.

@victor said in Disk usage in tube chart, max value setting missing:

Hi!

Currently upper limit for bar/tube chart is determined by max value of added elements. I'll add a feature request for setting custom max value for chart.

Best regards,
Victor

Can the max value be set on the element somehow and if so how? If not, what is the recommended way to display the value of the percentage of a volume's space that is used?

I was considering using a dial, but then it would look like the CPU dials and this might be confusing to the users.

Regards,

R

+1 for a Debian repo

Hi,

I'm trying to create a tube chart for the disk usage on each of my servers. When I use a dial chart for CPU usage, there is a maximum value field that I can fill. I don't see this in the tube chart config.

I'm using the instructions for creating the DCI given here: https://www.netxms.org/forum/configuration/configure-certain-servers-to-monitor-disk-space-using-netxms/

I found the missing disk.free value by reading this: https://www.netxms.org/forum/configuration/disk-parameters-missing/msg7205/#msg7205

When I add the newly created DCI for the disk to the tube chart then I don't see a field to add the maximum value like when I did the dial chart. Is this how it should be or is there another way to get the tube chart to render relative to the maximum value of 100%? The numbers on the left of my chart that indicate percentage don't go all the way to 100%. I've attached a screenshot to show the issue.

Regards,

R

Thanks very much for the clear instructions. It worked first time.

Thanks, I'll give that a go.

Hi,

I'm trying really hard here, but I see no option to create a CPU graph, that looks like a rev counter in a car, as shown in this screenshot.

Page not found — NetXMS

The page you were looking for does not exist.

NetXMS (www.netxms.org)

Could anyone please share the secret? A pie chart that has a max value of 100% will do too.
