snmp process monitoring....

2006-08-09 Thread Barton Robinson
Is this for the specific Oracle mibs or just the process mibs?
The process mibs are easy - they get implemented automagically.
On the esamon side, we can extract all the oracle processes
and process the names with simple rexx.  would that meet the
requirement?

I'm wanting to put in a directive in snmpd.conf to monitor oracle process.
Specifically the ora_s???_KIDS processes as seen below.  When oracle
creates a new server process, it increments the number in the process name.
Unfortunately, snmpd doesn't seem to support wildcards for process names.
Is this an accurate observation?  Is there some way I could be able to
monitor it?

That's an approach that is very likely to be effective. Without doubt
Chris knows how to give us some sample data and explain what he would
like to measure and monitor.

I believe we collect enough information already about the individual
processes that we can group them and report or monitor total cpu usage
of the group or the number of processes in it. Because CPU usage
measured inside Linux needs to be corrected for virtualization
effects, it makes sense to do that in ESALPS rather than in Linux.

The built-in monitoring of net-snmp is afaik restricted to just
counting the number of processes with the same name. When they get
created like this you might check that there is no process named
ora_s12 (to see there's only 11 started). But when Oracle is starting
this processes, I have a slight feeling they will also check their
presence already and act upon problems.

Re: snmp process monitoring....

2006-07-13 Thread Barton Robinson
Chris, we should talk offline. We've found some significant
reasons (overhead) not to use the UCD mibs that create the
alerts. We can do this extremly simply using a rexx macro as
part of the standard alert system
(that i'm sure someone at [EMAIL PROTECTED] could
easily provide).

Since our interest is in the ability to monitor hundreds
(or thousands) of linux servers, something that may double
the overhead is a feature we tend to dislike and find
alternate/better ways to accomplish.
This UCD feature is one we've found to be a good one to replace...
With the velocity compiled' version of netsnmp and the velocity
software mib, there are many more options.





From: Little, Chris [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Sort of, but really it's more general than ESALPS -- which is
why I'm asking here.  SNMP has the ability to create alerts based
on too few or too many processes, but it seems to require exact
process names to create these.  I'm not wanting ESALPS to create
the alerts, just report on alerts created by the Penguins.

Re: snmp process monitoring....

2006-07-12 Thread Little, Chris
Sort of, but really it's more general than ESALPS -- which is why I'm asking
here.  SNMP has the ability to create alerts based on too few or too many
processes, but it seems to require exact process names to create these. I'm
not wanting ESALPS to create the alerts, just report on alerts created by
the Penguins.

Re: snmp process monitoring....

2006-07-12 Thread Rich Smrcina

You could always ask for the feature in ESALPS, since it makes the snmp
request.

If you want something more elaborate, I could introduce you to Hobbit.
Among lots of other things, it can do process monitoring and can match
process names via a regular expression and it can alert if too many or
too few are running.

Re: snmp process monitoring....

2006-07-12 Thread David Boyes
It depends on how the person coding the MIB definition and the SNMP
subagent that fills in the data chose to implement it. There's nothing
inherent in net-snmp that limits it to single variables other than the
code supplied; eg, if the MIB defines the variable as an array of
values, then it's a question of the code that fills in the array. 

Are you using the stock net-snmp RPM, or something supplied from another
source? If the stock net-snmp RPM, what is the contents of
/etc/trapd.conf and the output of 'ls -l' on your MIB directory?
