[SA-list] Questions on RRD

2007-05-14 Thread Ha, Kong
I have turned on RRD logging. The Round trip looks good. For updown, it seems no matter what I put in the subdirectory and press apply, it becomes blank if I exit and go in to redisplay the screen again. But the database file gets updated, which is weird. On the other hand, for check result, all da

Thanks for the input. That worked. I had SNMP running on one machine and not the other. As soon as I installed SNMP on the Server I couldn't monitor, it worked. Thanks for the help. Frank Brower Network Administrator Olson Research Group 300 Phillips Blvd. Suite 100 Ewing, NJ 08618 609-8

I think you're talking about your UPS? I'm talking about 3 types of alerts that are currently supported by Servers Alive, but in a none-threaded way. And we want to change that to a threaded way. Dirk Bulinckx. -Original Message- From: Servers Alive Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTE

I am not that familiair with SNPP, SMPP or XMPP, all that I know is its currently running the APC PowerSuite Software, business edition. Don't know if that helps or not. But as for testing a beta version of it. As long as it won't affect the server, or cause it to crash or anything like that, I

The powernet mib from APC is pretty well documented. A good version is here: http://support.ipmonitor.com/mibs/POWERNET-MIB/tree.aspx You need to created SNMP checks for the specific OID that corresponds to the item you want monitor. For example, the Remaining Runtime OID is 1.3.6.1.4.1.318.

This assumes that you have a network management card installed. If the back of your UPS has a black metal plate with no markings, you need to install a AP9617, AP9618 or AP9619 network amangement card. Michael D. Shook Systems Analyst - Data Integration Saddle Creek Corporation [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I would go with the tags as they are not limited in number, self describing, and would provide more flexibility. -Kevin Dirk Bulinckx wrote: > Currently within the alerts you can use the % parameters. They are "limited" > to > one-char after the %, which means that basicly we have > %0 .

If the Alert parameters were changed to case sensitive you could also have A..Z However if you are going for extensibility and already moving in the direction of xml, custom html tags are probably the best solution. -Original Message- From: Servers Alive Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PRO
