NetXMS Forum

Very nice, have signed up and will provide feedback.

Thanks Filipp, you are of course right.  It was after a recent server restart, and after a configuration poll, it is now showing up.

Cheers.

Hi has anyone else hit an issue with 5.2.5 where they can go to templates and create a new DCI and load up the agent parameters screen fine.  However if you go to the node directly in the infrastructure folder and try to create the DCI on the node, the agent metrics parameters screen is empty?

Tried in both web console and native console with same result.

Up at the top right of the DCI tab, can you see the little three dots menu there?  Do you have 'show unsupported' or 'show hidden' un-ticked?  It could be that the local/remote management console has slightly different combo of preferences ticked.

was looking at the advanced file management section of the docs and it mentions file upload jobs are available in the view -> server jobs panel.  I can't find this anywhere in the new GUI, was it only in the legacy one?

Remote file management — NetXMS Administrator Guide (7.0.0)

(www.netxms.org)

Looked in monitor/logs/server config etc.

Hi, was hoping you could build an nxagent RPM package set for Fedora 42 on packages.netxms.org? 

We're experimenting with layered netxms agent on Fedora IoT atomic and it has rolled to the 42 release.

Kind regards.

@filipp-sudanov said in Option to group software inventory by package:

Grouping by software package looks cumbersome - e.g. some software packages tend to have version number in the name, e.g. jdk-17... and jdk-21..., could be desirable to join them somehow... So unless it's a sponsored development we don't have resources available to go into this.

But, to mention, software package information is accessible from NXSL, so it might be that for some usecases you can just script something.

ah yes, I see that would complicate things a lot. fair point with NXSL.

@filipp-sudanov said in Option to group software inventory by package:

For expansion - I've registered a ticked to add expand/collapse buttons: https://track.radensolutions.com/issue/NX-2745

Thanks, that would basically remove the need for grouping by software (the idea was to click once to expand rather than hunting through all nodes clicking).   

So if you 1) filter up the top then 2) expand all, you can then 3) quickly export without too much clicking on each node.

Hi on the software inventory tab at the container level, would it be possible to add an option to switch the grouping from node to package?  So instead of seeing a list of nodes that you expand to see the contained software packages, you could see a list of software packages that you expand to see the nodes that have that software on it?

I also notice, that when you use the filter at the top of the tab, it seems inconsistent as to whether it will expand a node containing the software filtered for or not.  eg: typing 'edge' might expand some nodes but not others.

Would it be possible to consistently expand all nodes that contain a filtered software?  Or maybe as another feature request, have an 'expand all' 'collapse all' toggle/button at the top right to open all nodes up?

Cheers.

@filipp-sudanov said in 5.2.0 dashboard rack diagram not scaled to fit element size:

Yes, racks now have scaling limit so that units don't become too small. Looks like this is not ideal for dashboard use, I've created a ticket to improve that: https://track.radensolutions.com/issue/NX-2738

OK thanks.

Is the new 'zoom to fit' scaling only taking into account the front view and prioritising width over height for fitting? 

If I adjust the number of columns in a test dashboard it seems to maybe be scaling according to the front view only (see 3-col and 2-col examples).  My original dashboard is a 3-col layout.

Is that an interaction due to the more recent commit to enable/disable front/back views?

I'm just going to pull a backup to check 5.1.5 but I'm pretty sure it worked then. 

I can see three recent commits relating to rack diagrams

• https://github.com/netxms/netxms/commit/e988b7e3df8395d297ab775175c452e8b454109c
• https://github.com/netxms/netxms/commit/00a158c3a84d2f33d3a6046a64adc9fc123a1dc4
• https://github.com/netxms/netxms/commit/5708df2ee701060670e63ce1bcaefc8befc616fa

It seems that the third commit is trying to do a zoom to fit feature for racks NX-2695.  I've got a 42RU rack defined and its definitely not zooming to fit in either the desktop client or web UI (linux server).

Upgraded to 5.2.0 on Friday and have just noticed that on a dashboard with a rack diagram element it now seems zoomed to 100% always instead of vertically scaling the rack image into the allocated space of the dashboard element.  So you can never see the full contents of the diagram without using the internal scroll bars.

Is there a way to zoom to fit the rack element, or can the change to that element be reverted?

Attached is just an idea for what could be useful to see in a final version of this tool, so that you could see the winning source for any given line of the running config.

Thanks again!

Thanks Filipp, that works.  

I was close, the only difference was your column config which I had not put in.

Awesome, thanks again!

Hi, was hoping you could build an nxagent RPM package set for Fedora 41 on packages.netxms.org? 

We're experimenting with layered netxms agent on Fedora IoT atomic and it has rolled to the 41 release.

Kind regards.

Hi I have some agents that have a config file and a couple of agent policies applied. 

I was wondering if there is a way to see a merged running config with effective settings from the config file and the polices?  Saves hunting through config poll logs for applied policies and then finding the relevant policy to see what config comes in that snippet.

Ideally it would be a table that showed line by line the config and in another column the winning source of that line (from local config file or from named policy).

I saw that there is an agent list Agent.RunningConfig available, however if I try to create an object tool to display that parameter it shows up empty.

Is that parameter populated or do I need a specific regex defined as per some other object tools (like show agent lists).

Cheers.

Hi, receiving a 404 attempting to download the windows client installer  https://netxms.com/download/releases/5.1/netxms-client-5.1.1-x64.exe

@victor said in new desktop client - unbound nodes in infrastructure outside the folder tree:

I just updated client application so that nodes without parent objects in infrastructure tree are not shown as root level objects. This change will be part of release 5.0.3.
Best regards,
Victor

Thanks Victor, look forward to it.

@filipp-sudanov said in new desktop client - unbound nodes in infrastructure outside the folder tree:

Not sure why this is happening. Can you run the script I've shared manually (via Execute Script from context menu) on a couple of nodes which we bound to that container, but should not and share the output.

Hi Filip, attached is a screenshot of executing the script on a node that had an existing parent.  It always seems to return true whether on a node that has no other parent or an existing node.

@filipp-sudanov said in new desktop client - unbound nodes in infrastructure outside the folder tree:

Currently you can have "Unbound stuff" container somewhere with this auto-bind script, it will pick objects that are not present in any other containers:

for(p : $object.parents) {
  println(classof(p));
  if ((classof(p) == "Container") and p.id != $container.id) return false;
}
return true;

Thanks Filipp.  

I tried this script however it seems to pickup and autobind all nodes over time, not just those nodes outside the infrastructure services tree with no parent container.  

eg: attached an example of it filtered down to some APs that are already in parent containers and still trigger the autobind event.
