There is plenty of packaged freeware around as you may see on the site above. Come to think of it last time I needed a Solaris package it was build in something like 48 hours by Steve.

What you did not save you can not graph. Making graphs takes a good deal of planning before you implement it. But if you want to store graphs you might as well plan to take weekly snapshots.

Some guidelines: - Make sure you do not ask questions which seem to indicate you have not taken some time to figure it out yourself. - Make sure questions are clear in itself. Nobody but you knows what you have seen and done and read unless you tell someone. Make no assumptions just because you did send some of the details last year. - If a question is not answered do not resend it. Rephrase your question and be more elaborate and more detailed in your information and more to the point in your questions.

Does it add the result > of the 2nd IF to the result of the 1st one? or it is another logical operator? All of them are maths. The first * does work as the AND operator but the + does not at all. I am not a RPN expert however. You need to play the stack game and rewrite it part by part to a more common notation to figure this one out. C2=in,$L2,LT,in,$L1,GE,*,in,$L1,-,0,IF,in,$L2,GT,$L1,0,IF,+ Compare L2: C2 = (in < $L2) ,in,$L1,GE,*,in,$L1,-,0,IF,in,$L2,GT,$L1,0,IF,+ Compare L1: C2 = (in < $L2) (in >= $L1) ,*,in,$L1,-,0,IF,in,$L2,GT,$L1,0,IF,+ Multiply these results (which equals to AND): C2 = ((in < $L2) * (in >= $L1)) ,in,$L1,-,0,IF,in,$L2,GT,$L1,0,IF,+ Lower with L1: C2 = ((in < $L2) * (in >= $L1)) (in - $L1) ,0,IF,in,$L2,GT,$L1,0,IF,+ Now rewrite in more common format: IF ((in < $L2) * (in >= $L1)) THEN C2a = (in - $L1) ELSE C2a = 0 So where did C2a come from? Well, I needed a place holder as we haven't finished yet. C2b = in,$L2,GT,$L1,0,IF C2b = (in > $L2) ,$L1,0,IF In more common format: IF (in > $L2) THEN C2b = $L1 ELSE C2b = 0 And finaly: C2 = C2a + C2b The problem here lies that it only works if you use even spaced color intervals. But if these intervals are not equaly divided you should not use $L1 but ($L2 - $L1). Which would in the end result in: CDEF:C2=in,$L2,LT,in,$L1,GE,*,in,$L1,-,0,IF,in,$L2,GT,$L2,$L1,-,0,IF,+ BTW: I assume here that $Lx stands for the color seperation levels.

Wo what DO you see exactly if you run this script? From the error I think
you get 4 parameters and not just 1 back from your snmpwalk command.

Not quit. It means Cnxs is cut short at 300. But Cnxsorange is cut if it exceeds 600 back to 300. Or else it will hold input which might be anywhere from 0 to 599. So if input is 450 you would get Cnxs=300 and Cnxsorange=450 which would stack for a nice value of 750 which I think should be quite red. You might want to do: CDEF:CnxsOrange=input,600,GE,300,input,300,-,IF IF (input >= 600) THEN CnxsOrange = 300 ELSE CnxsOrange = input-300 But my RPN is not perfect either so I might be utterly wrong here. I would advise to use variables instead of hardcoded values. It would make changing a perimeter an easy exercise instead of counting all occurrances and hoping you did not miss one.

If you happen to run sendmail instead of postfix you might want to add:
elsif($prog eq 'sendmail') {
if($text =~ /mailer=local/ ) {
event($time, 'received');
}
if($text =~ /stat=Sent/ ) {
event($time, 'sent');
}
if($text =~ /lost input channel/ ) {
event($time, 'rejected');
}
if($text =~ /ruleset=check_rcpt/ ) {
event($time, 'bounced');
}
if($text =~ /sender blocked/ ) {
event($time, 'bounced');
}
if($text =~ /sender denied/ ) {
event($time, 'bounced');
}
if($text =~ /recipient denied/ ) {
event($time, 'bounced');
}
}
Somewhere along the list of programs and events.

It gave it a shot with adding:
elsif($prog eq 'sendmail') {
if($text =~ /mailer=local/ ) {
event($time, 'received');
}
if($text =~ /mailer=relay/ ) {
event($time, 'sent');
}
if($text =~ /reject=/ ) {
event($time, 'rejected');
}
}
However I am not sure about the definitions of the events bounced and
received.
I think it means:
rejected: I did not like the message and told the sending server to
take a hike and keep the message.

Sounds like a time offset issue. As your local timezone has an one hour offset from UTC (formerly known as GMT) it seems you have to check your timezone handling.

I got a sample of code up at http://hvdkooij.xs4all.nl/stats/ which you may want to look into. You need to get 3 variables to get the actual size + usages. 1 being the unit size 2 being the number of units for the device (partition) 3 being the number of allocated units for the device Total size = 1 * 2 Used = 1 * 3 This is easily discovered by doing an snmpwalk over a device and dropping the results in a file.

[rrd-users] SNMP polling and graphing
Hi, A while ago I asked if anyone had a script to semiautomagically graph routers and switches. Erik de Mare helped me with some of his work but it did not work out to well on the wild bunch of switches, routers and firewalls I used to test the script. Based on this script I have now created two scripts that are able to handle most of the known devices I could test. Is consist of a SNMP poller and a seperate grapher script. They have locking to prevent duplicate runs that would tear down your system. Well. To put it short: http://hvdkooij.xs4all.nl/traffic/index.html If someone finds a device that can not handle all of the variables please let me know how to work around them.

A short description to a solution is below. You must install Net::SNMP Make sure you have perl-CPAN install as RPM and whatever other RPM packages you require to make PERL = CPAN work.

I would not recommend this setting. Anyone can alter your script.

The question one would have to ask is wether a scale with a value of 600 makes a lot of sense. (If I did that my colleagues would call this a dirty number.

Hi, I got some odd spikes in my graphs which I can not explain.

I found a script that would eliminate the spikes but it does seem to be able to find them. When I dump them I see some odd values like: 1.7465351003e+02 8.6018274795e-01 0.00e+00 7.4872062267e+02 1.0855673633e+00 0.00e+00 1.3459998633e+07 1.4029501409e+07 0.00e+00 1.3917249952e+07 1.4029623522e+07 0.00e+00 2.7482945766e+05 2.8631683346e+05 0.00e+00 2.8407013927e+05 2.8631935496e+05 0.00e+00 1.5435908584e+02 6.1984392419e-01 0.00e+00 1.4115735786e+02 6.6309921962e-01 0.00e+00 As this is a ADSL link it can not exceed 768 kb/s for downloads (4th field) and 128 kB/s for uploads (1st field).

[rrd-users] Simple solution to a problem?
Hi, I have been looking for a relative simple way to setup databases, data gathering and some webpages to build a custom overview. In it's most simple form I want a simple form to ask for an IP address and a community name and have it gather all the information for me and setup a custom graphs and databases. As this will be a movable tool to help switching engineers to trouble shoot switching issues I need rather specific options I could not work out with tools like cricket and cacti. Is anyone working on such an animal? Building templates may be a bit harder as it will be done just once but getting the tool in place to monitor a switch or router should be relative simple. I may try to get some time allocated to build such a tool in company time as it will shorten troubleshooting with a significant amount of time. But if anyone is allready working on the exact issue It might be better to bundle our strengths. Hugo. -- All email sent to me is bound to the rules described on my homepage.

Should be:

else normal:=$BUSY
if fraction >= $BUSY
then if fraction <= $FULL
then busy:=value
else busy:=$FULL
else busy=UNKNOWN
if fraction >= $FULL

The change is significant to make sure we do the right thing.

Now the object is to make a CDEF string to return the following formula:
if ( 0.8 < (used/size) <= 0.95 ) {
used+units
} else {
0
)
I settled for:
CDEF:normal=used,size,/,$BUSY,LT,used,units,*,0,IF \
CDEF:temp=used,size,/,$BUSY,GT,used,0,IF\
CDEF:busy=used,size,/,$FULL,LT,temp,units,*,0,IF\
CDEF:full=used,size,/,$FULL,GT,used,units,*,0,IF\
Where:
BUSY=0.8
FULL=0.95
Thanks for pointing out the oversight. (Can't be a guru in everything ;-)

Plenty of perl to go around. however I am not a perl man nor do I expect to become one ever. Digging out the information will take some time.

[rrd-users] Disk Usage per SNMP?
Hi,
I am trying to graph diskusage with RRDtools. (Finally changing from MRTG)
but it seems it does not work to well.
I initialized the database with:
rrdtool create /etc/stats/aragorn.disk.usr.rrd \
DS:units:GAUGE:600:U:U \
DS:size:ABSOLUTE:600:U:U\
DS:used:ABSOLUTE:600:U:U\
RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:576 \
RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:6:672 \
RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:24:732 \
RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:288:732 \
RRA:MAX:0.5:1:576 \
RRA:MAX:0.5:6:672 \
RRA:MAX:0.5:24:732 \
RRA:MAX:0.5:288:732
I read the vaules in with:
UNITS=`$SNMPGET -v1 -c mysnmpd aragorn 1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.4.8|awk '{print
$4}'`
SIZE=`$SNMPGET -v1 -c mysnmpd aragorn 1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.5.8|awk '{print $4}'`
USED=`$SNMPGET -v1 -c mysnmpd aragorn 1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.6.8|awk '{print $4}'`
rrdtool update $STATDIR/aragorn.disk.usr.rrd N:$UNITS:$SIZE:$USED
I checked the values with an additional echo command and the proper values
are returned and fed to rrdtool.
But graphing them seem to be a bit harder.
I tried a simple version with:
rrdtool graph $GRAPHS/aragorn-disk-home.$PERIOD.gif --start -$LENGTH\
-t "aragorn DISK /home $TITEL" \
DEF:units=$STATS/aragorn.disk.home.rrd:units:AVERAGE\
DEF:size=$STATS/aragorn.disk.home.rrd:size:AVERAGE \
DEF:used=$STATS/aragorn.disk.home.rrd:used:AVERAGE \
CDEF:disk=used,units,* \
AREA:normal#7EE600:"used" \
GPRINT:disk:AVERAGE:"Gemiddeld\:%14.0lf B" \
GPRINT:disk:MAX:"Maximum\:%14.0lf B\n"
But the values shown are not what I would expect. The specific partition
is rather large but I was under the impression the RRDtools could handle
larger values (> 2^32). See also the df output:
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/md7 111207864 103446296 2112320 98% /home
In the long run I would like to use a three color approach. (green for <
80%; orange for 80-95%; red for > 95%)
