ucd/net snmp monitored processes templates v. 1.0

Hi,

When snmpd is configured to monitor a process using the "proc" configuration directive, the count of currently running processes can be graphed using Cacti.

Example snmpd.conf entry:

Code:

   proc init
   proc blubber

Would produce:

Code:

   $ snmpwalk -v2c -c public localhost .1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.2
   UCD-SNMP-MIB::prIndex.1 = INTEGER: 1
   UCD-SNMP-MIB::prIndex.2 = INTEGER: 2
   UCD-SNMP-MIB::prNames.1 = STRING: init
   UCD-SNMP-MIB::prNames.2 = STRING: blubber
   UCD-SNMP-MIB::prMin.1 = INTEGER: 0
   UCD-SNMP-MIB::prMin.2 = INTEGER: 0
   UCD-SNMP-MIB::prMax.1 = INTEGER: 0
   UCD-SNMP-MIB::prMax.2 = INTEGER: 0
   UCD-SNMP-MIB::prCount.1 = INTEGER: 1
   UCD-SNMP-MIB::prCount.2 = INTEGER: 0
   UCD-SNMP-MIB::prErrorFlag.1 = INTEGER: noError(0)
   UCD-SNMP-MIB::prErrorFlag.2 = INTEGER: error(1)
   UCD-SNMP-MIB::prErrMessage.1 = STRING:
   UCD-SNMP-MIB::prErrMessage.2 = STRING: No blubber process running.
   UCD-SNMP-MIB::prErrFix.1 = INTEGER: noError(0)
   UCD-SNMP-MIB::prErrFix.2 = INTEGER: noError(0)
   UCD-SNMP-MIB::prErrFixCmd.1 = STRING:
   UCD-SNMP-MIB::prErrFixCmd.2 = STRING:

The provided graph template is rather simple, just the count of the process is graphed - it may be extended to show the minimum and the maximum values too.

For installation instructions see included INSTALL file.

Hope the templates are useful,
Matthias

I get a hash error when import the template! damn!

Which version of cacti are you using?

I was using the latest version 0.8.6j for exporting the files - what's yours? I'm not sure if it's possible to export the files for an older version, however... ?!

ya, using 8i..

Maybe one of the experts on this board..know how to convert the hash to a previous version? Off hand, I am not sure.

Well dirty little secret. You need to edit include/config_arrays.php. In there you will find a versions array, I think 0.8.6j is "013". How's that. You should really upgrade

Cautiously of course....

Is there any way to get this same information from a Windows agent when Cacti is running on a Linux server? This has been great for all my linux servers, but I need to verify a certain number of processes are running on Windows as well. Thanks.

Someone is having or has had the same problem as me? When I create the threshold of a graph generated from the proc (example: httpd processes) and graph_template graph_id fields are 0. The other charts I have are with the correct data in the bank.

Thus, when I receive a notification by e-mail one of these charts come with the following message:

Could not open!
http://IP_SERVER//graph_image.php?local_graph_id=0&rra_id=0&view_type=tree

The image that comes in the mail can not be opened. In the id is the message I see that as 0 instead of the correct id. In the database table thold_data noticed that the fields are graph_template graph_id and 0. The other charts I've ever had before installing your template with these fields are correct. ?

I am sending an attachment with the print of the bank.
