[rrd-users] front-end to monitor by snmp and scripts
Hello! I'm working in a front-end that can monitor by SNMP (any mib) or by Scripts. My idea is to share the program with all to make it better and would be great if I could contact with people interested in test, help me to develop!!, contribute with ideas, etc... I use perl with some modules for the base programming. Php4 for the interface to generate graphs Postgresql as the database. RRDTool of course :-) What the program can do: *Poll data (snmp or scripts) from diferentes points. You can configure severals polling servers to get the data, located in diferents networks, the only thing that is needed is access to the database. *At this time I am polling some standards mibs (interfaces, host, udp, tcp) and some for specific agents (net-snmp, cisco2900 switch, microsoft mib) *A nice interface to generate the graphs. Someone interested to help? You can ask me any question about the front-end. thanks for reading. -- Alejandro D.

If this is true, I'm very interested in not only testing and using this, but also helping with development. Thanks. Hi Dan: Yes, you can select multiple devices with one variable (for example four interfaces of two differentes devices and graph then together) Check this url for an example of this... http://aleg.freeshell.org/example.gif The frontend will support graphs of one device and multiple variables ( for example server-eth0 - Bytes In and Bytes Out) ( I am CC the list for information to another interested users ) Alejandro -Dan Alejandro D.

Hi Haris,
The way my front end works is, it asks you IP address ,community string,
service to monitor, and index no (if needed) than it automatically:
Well, my frontend works in this way.
1) Discover the object that we will monitor -you need to provide IP address,
community, port- Object can be a router, switch, server, etc, that the
frontend recognize.
2) Discover what OID and index the frontend will poll for example
the frontend will examine automatically how many interfaces you have and if
his status is up start polling.
For interfaces i have the following variables: Bits, Bits In, Bits Out, Bytes,
Bytes In, Bytes Out, Errors, Erros In, Errors OUt, Bandwith Utilization%,
Discarted frames, Frames In, will be some more :-))
3) A 5 minute cron is configured to start the poll. This will save the data a
database and next to an .rrd. The name of the rrd is determined by a table
index. ( I can be more precise if you want how internally the frontend work)
3. Creates graphs every 5 min (not a very good idea :)
With my interface you can create the graph when you need, and specify the date
from and date to.
Check this example: http://aleg.freeshell.org/example.gif
Note, currently available service_to_monitor={Network Utilization, CPU
load, Interface Error, Latency, Load Balancing}
The variables will depend on the agent, a server with net-snmp will have some
variables that a switch will not.
The good news is that I can expand the numbers of variables, just I need some
knowledge of the mib)

This is just fine for some of my interfaces but others need to manage the wrap because of the hight usage and many counter wraps, so I need the COUNTER DST. I' m checking the sysuptime so if the interfaces counter is reseted i can detect it and handle this with the COUNTER Data source type. Why the COUNTER dst doesn't work in my case ?
