[01-Nov-2007 06:06:30] <tessier1> Hello all!
[01-Nov-2007 06:10:01] <tessier1> I am running zenoss 2.0.4 and when I add a new device I get an empty device table on the resulting page and the device never shows up in my device tree
[01-Nov-2007 06:11:41] <tessier1> hmm...I just tried it with discovery protocol "none" and it added. Odd.
[01-Nov-2007 07:07:38] <tessier1> oooh....sounds like I need to upgrade from 2.0.4 to 2.1
[01-Nov-2007 07:07:42] <tessier1> Hope the upgrade is eas
[01-Nov-2007 07:07:43] <tessier1> y
[01-Nov-2007 10:44:15] <atlantan> I've got a specific OID, 1.3.6.1.4.1.12394.1.1.11.2.4.2.1.0 which is just a counter for phy_errors on an Alvarion AP. walk it, get it, fine, but for whatever reason can't get zenoss to collect and report on it. can't seem to figure it out. tried creating a new template and binding it to a container, and tried to modify the existing (/Device) template, nothing I do seems to work. any direction?

[01-Nov-2007 11:33:04] <pablo26> hi all
[01-Nov-2007 11:34:37] <tmcnicho> still hackin at it pablo?
[01-Nov-2007 11:36:26] <pablo26> still trying, for the moment zenoss is winning
[01-Nov-2007 11:36:44] <tmcnicho> did you get your httpmonitor thing fixed?
[01-Nov-2007 11:37:19] <pablo26> no, i need to find a way to debug it faster
[01-Nov-2007 11:37:36] <pablo26> i'm still thinking that no one test it yet
[01-Nov-2007 11:37:57] <tmcnicho> maybe, it almost seems like the warning you get is just information
[01-Nov-2007 11:38:05] <tmcnicho> like what you'd expect to see if the check succeeds
[01-Nov-2007 11:38:19] <pablo26> yes, but with an shoreter uri it worked
[01-Nov-2007 11:38:40] <tmcnicho> uri?
[01-Nov-2007 11:39:03] <pablo26> the part if the url that goes before the .com
[01-Nov-2007 11:39:14] <tmcnicho> ah
[01-Nov-2007 11:39:27] <tmcnicho> are these external or internal devices your monitoring?
[01-Nov-2007 11:39:45] <pablo26> internals, and some externals
[01-Nov-2007 11:40:05] <tmcnicho> ok, you sure DNS is properly configured?
[01-Nov-2007 11:40:25] <tmcnicho> as in, can you ping from the server console to those urls?
[01-Nov-2007 11:40:45] <pablo26> it does not use dns the httmponitor, u send to commands -H with the host and -i with the ip
[01-Nov-2007 11:41:15] <tmcnicho> does it work if you go by IP?
[01-Nov-2007 11:41:47] <pablo26> it works i get a warning with an ok message
[01-Nov-2007 11:42:19] <pablo26> do u know how to debug the commands?
[01-Nov-2007 11:42:45] <tmcnicho> nope
[01-Nov-2007 11:42:53] <tmcnicho> and you get the same thing by host?
[01-Nov-2007 11:43:25] <pablo26> yes
[01-Nov-2007 11:43:36] <pablo26> i've tried by changing them
[01-Nov-2007 11:44:06] <pablo26> yesterday ir worked using a "/" as uri, now i put a bigger one and its not working
[01-Nov-2007 11:49:27] <tmcnicho> try this
[01-Nov-2007 11:49:40] <tmcnicho> go into your /etc/hosts
[01-Nov-2007 11:49:55] <tmcnicho> on the zenoss server, and add one of the hosts in question
[01-Nov-2007 11:49:58] <tmcnicho> see what happens
[01-Nov-2007 12:00:14] <pablo26> the same happens
[01-Nov-2007 12:03:17] <tmcnicho> im confused on how you set up the monitor, how do you "add" it to a device?
[01-Nov-2007 12:04:23] <pablo26> i added a template for /devices/server
[01-Nov-2007 12:07:51] <tmcnicho> ok
[01-Nov-2007 12:08:30] <tmcnicho> hrmm, give me a little bit to try and turn this on here
[01-Nov-2007 12:08:35] <tmcnicho> i'll play with it see what i can figure out
[01-Nov-2007 12:09:06] <pablo26> create a template add a datapoint of type httmonitor and thats it
[01-Nov-2007 12:09:32] <tmcnicho> are there a good bit of options?
[01-Nov-2007 12:09:45] <tmcnicho> or is it only a port 80 monitor?
[01-Nov-2007 12:09:46] <pablo26> yes
[01-Nov-2007 12:10:17] <pablo26> u ca choose port uri user password pattern to match ip host
[01-Nov-2007 12:10:30] <tmcnicho> ok, well as soon as i can get grub to cooperate and boost my host, i'll start messing with it
[01-Nov-2007 12:10:34] <pablo26> and it has 2 datapoins time and data size
[01-Nov-2007 12:10:38] <tmcnicho> ok
[01-Nov-2007 12:11:08] <tmcnicho> and you are then copying this template to each device and setting the URI?
[01-Nov-2007 12:11:40] <pablo26> yes
[01-Nov-2007 12:11:45] <pablo26> and the pattern to match
[01-Nov-2007 12:11:52] <tmcnicho> ok
[01-Nov-2007 12:19:12] <tmcnicho> odd, grub says it installs fine, but still nothing on boot :|
[01-Nov-2007 12:19:19] <tmcnicho> i had a really good set of instructions last time
[01-Nov-2007 12:26:51] <palm101> Hello

[01-Nov-2007 12:56:46] <pablo26> palm101 have u enable snmp monitoring for that server, is it windows or linux?
[01-Nov-2007 12:57:09] <palm101> yes
[01-Nov-2007 12:57:15] <palm101> Its a windows 2003 server
[01-Nov-2007 12:57:40] <pablo26> did u install snmp-informant, and setted up the snmp settings?
[01-Nov-2007 12:57:52] <palm101> zenyes
[01-Nov-2007 12:57:54] <palm101> yes
[01-Nov-2007 12:58:31] <pablo26> have u tested with the command line that snmp is working?
[01-Nov-2007 12:58:45] <palm101> no
[01-Nov-2007 12:59:04] <palm101> what command should I try?
[01-Nov-2007 12:59:23] <pablo26> from the zenoss box do a snmpwalk -c community host , u should see a lot of information
[01-Nov-2007 12:59:44] <palm101> I have tried that
[01-Nov-2007 12:59:53] <palm101> I see a lot of stuff
[01-Nov-2007 13:00:08] <pablo26> have u enabled wmi also on the win 2k3?
[01-Nov-2007 13:00:39] <palm101> How do I check that it is enabled?
[01-Nov-2007 13:01:44] <pablo26> on services, check that is started
[01-Nov-2007 13:01:52] <palm101> it is started

[01-Nov-2007 14:53:50] <tmcnicho> almost there pablo, i had to start from scratch this morning
[01-Nov-2007 14:53:54] <tmcnicho> i think i'm glad i did
[01-Nov-2007 14:55:33] <MoreDakka_> againt?
[01-Nov-2007 15:14:15] <pablo26> i had to start from scrach about 2 days ago
[01-Nov-2007 15:15:36] <pablo26> as an advice dont disable or delete the thresholds that sends unusefull alerts, they will keep sending them
[01-Nov-2007 15:33:44] <tmcnicho> isn't there an easy way to add a zenpack from command line on the VM?
[01-Nov-2007 15:34:10] <tmcnicho> including the downloading part, i thought you could do it with conary
[01-Nov-2007 15:38:14] <tmcnicho> hey pablo, did you upgrade your zenoss or did you start with 2.1?
[01-Nov-2007 15:38:15] <pablo26> from linux u have to use only 2 commands
[01-Nov-2007 15:38:30] <pablo26> i upgrade from 2.0.4
[01-Nov-2007 15:38:47] <tmcnicho> maybe you need to reinstall the httpmonitor, since i'm reading that the zenpacks are build dependent
[01-Nov-2007 15:39:13] <pablo26> i had to reinstall everything to upgrade to 2.1
[01-Nov-2007 15:39:27] <tmcnicho> k
[01-Nov-2007 15:40:03] <tmcnicho> what were the two commands?
[01-Nov-2007 15:40:37] <pablo26> wget to get the file and the zenpack installer
[01-Nov-2007 15:41:08] <tmcnicho> hrmm, yeah i can do it that way, i remember reading a thread that said on the appliance there was a single command to download and install the offical zenpacks
[01-Nov-2007 15:47:22] <tmcnicho> found it
[01-Nov-2007 15:47:24] <tmcnicho> conary update --resolve group-<Name of ZenPack>
[01-Nov-2007 17:03:38] <thefish> for monitoring windows servers, only snmp-informant and snmp service needs to be installed on the windows machine?
[01-Nov-2007 17:04:13] <thefish> i keep getting ERROR_NET_WRITE_FAULT: A write fault occurred on the network. (88)
[01-Nov-2007 17:09:05] <tmcnicho> did you go into the zProperties of /Devices/Servers/Windows and use account info with privileges to check such things?
[01-Nov-2007 17:09:48] <tmcnicho> well hold on, thats more of a general SNMP error, sounds like you used a read-only community
[01-Nov-2007 17:36:33] <thefish> i added the domain admin account for a try, and still get the error, and it should be read only, i dont want to write anything

Would anyone here have time to help me troubleshoot this? I think that this is causing my graphs to stop working as of last night and I'm not sure what else depends on zenhub to work.

[02-Nov-2007 15:56:11] <jalpert> Sorry, REALLY dumb question, I searched the forums... I add a windows service. It's on and it's status is Green. I stop the windows server and the status is still green. How do I get service monitoring for windows to work in that manner?
[02-Nov-2007 15:56:50] <jalpert> I stop the windows service, not server.
[02-Nov-2007 15:57:37] <jalpert> More info. Windows 2k3 server standard, SNMP w/ SNMP Informant.
[02-Nov-2007 15:57:48] <jalpert> Zenoss 2.1 on Ubuntu 7.10
[02-Nov-2007 15:59:49] <jalpert> Any takers?
[02-Nov-2007 16:00:20] <jalpert> The documentation is pretty slim regarding adding a windows service, so that's not help. When the service stops I expect zenoss to change the status....
[02-Nov-2007 16:02:20] <Y0da^> where can I find a good how to for beginning to monitor with zenoss?
[02-Nov-2007 16:03:05] <jalpert> Easiest way I think is to start with the Virtual Machine and quick start guide
[02-Nov-2007 16:03:17] <Y0da^> well I already have it up and running
[02-Nov-2007 16:03:27] <jalpert> What do you need to know maybe I can help
[02-Nov-2007 16:04:12] <Y0da^> how do you configure the autodiscovery, and is there an agent that goes on your windows servers?
[02-Nov-2007 16:05:28] <jalpert> I saw the auto discovery yesterday, but I forgot maybe I can find it, but as far as the agent goes, enable SNMP in the window setup (or probably net-snmp for linux/bsd) and install SNMP informant on windows for more advanced information, snmp/snmp informat is your agent
[02-Nov-2007 16:06:10] <Y0da^> where can I find that quick-start guide?
[02-Nov-2007 16:06:28] <jalpert> For auto discovery look at page 47 in the user manual

[02-Nov-2007 17:06:54] <MoutaPT> Hi guys, I'm new with Zenoss, I got SNMP already running to monitor a test server, can any of you help me how to setup syslog events?
[02-Nov-2007 17:09:53] <MoutaPT> any one here?
[02-Nov-2007 17:20:17] <fiXXXerMet> What's up?
[02-Nov-2007 17:26:24] <MoutaPT> fishstickz can u give any tip how to configure zenoss to process syslog
[02-Nov-2007 17:26:25] <MoutaPT> files
[02-Nov-2007 17:26:41] <MoutaPT> I 've setup snmp already fine
[02-Nov-2007 17:27:06] <MoutaPT> but I don't know yet how to ensure syslog is being processed
[02-Nov-2007 17:34:51] <fiXXXerMet> I've never done that myself
[02-Nov-2007 17:35:01] <fiXXXerMet> Didn't even know it could
[02-Nov-2007 17:40:37] <MoreDakka_> fiXXXerMet, I'm wondering if you can tell me how zenoss monitors services.
[02-Nov-2007 17:40:48] <fiXXXerMet> Windows services?
[02-Nov-2007 17:41:23] <MoreDakka_> If I set, for example /Services/WinService/Dhcp to monitor=true will zenoss scan all the devices for dhcp and start monitoring those?
[02-Nov-2007 17:42:04] <fiXXXerMet> Yes. But I think it uses wmi, so that has to be installed on the windows box, and I also think you need to specify a windows user name and password (z properties)
[02-Nov-2007 17:42:08] <MoreDakka_> bah
[02-Nov-2007 17:42:37] <MoreDakka_> so I will have to set IP services for other port monitoring right?
[02-Nov-2007 17:42:54] <fiXXXerMet> um
[02-Nov-2007 17:43:12] <fiXXXerMet> All I know is that I went to dhcp/dns/exchange/etc, m arked them as true, set a windows user and pass, and it works
[02-Nov-2007 17:43:33] <MoreDakka_> What is the difference between Privileged/Registered under IPServices?
[02-Nov-2007 17:43:39] <MoreDakka_> IPService.
[02-Nov-2007 17:43:52] <MoreDakka_> yeah, our client doesn't want to use WMI so we can't use those :(
[02-Nov-2007 17:44:17] <fiXXXerMet> Oh. I'm not sure about all of that
[02-Nov-2007 17:45:59] <MoreDakka_> alright, thats cool ;-)
[02-Nov-2007 17:46:23] <jamesbrin1> can anyone point me to instructions on building zenoss on solaris 10

[03-Nov-2007 06:29:29] <tessier> I just realized all of my linux boxes should be running a few things which didn't get added by the discover. And it's going to be a serious pain to add them all by hand.
[03-Nov-2007 06:37:42] <tessier> Also wondering how to enable ssh for discovery. I don't see it in any of the docs. http://www.zenoss.com/community/docs/faqs/faq-english/ says to set zTransportPreference to command but I see no such property

[05-Nov-2007 10:46:29] <xant> hi ... I have a question regarding the logic used when defining an alerting rule ... anyone here with experience on this subject ?
[05-Nov-2007 10:46:53] <xant> actually I see that the interface let you define a filter forcing "OR" as operator between multiple objects of the same type
[05-Nov-2007 10:47:14] <xant> I really have to use a different logic...."ANDING" statements
[05-Nov-2007 10:47:33] <xant> I see that modifying the filter directly on the zodb it works ... so it's just an interface limit
[05-Nov-2007 10:49:31] <xant> anyone here understand what I mean? ... I'm sorry for my poor english but I'd like to talk with one of the developers about this limit

[07-Nov-2007 20:37:01] <MoreDakka_> Well I finally got all my data from v1.1.1 -> 2.1 :-D And with that now I'vegot Devices that have problems (VPN's not setup on this computer) and so I've got a huge list of"Device Issues" and each device has an image accociated with it and they are large images which makes viewing the "Device Issues" quite a bit more difficult.
[07-Nov-2007 20:37:08] <MoreDakka_> Also, should everything be centered? (Example, under Preferences for admin, under the Edit tab the whole right column is centered)

[08-Nov-2007 15:19:55] <MoreDakka_> Are you running that as the zenoss use?
[08-Nov-2007 15:19:56] <MoreDakka_> r
[08-Nov-2007 15:20:15] <fiXXXerMet> Running what as the zenoss user?
[08-Nov-2007 15:20:46] <MoreDakka_> Your pastebin halp halp....zen2dump.py
[08-Nov-2007 15:20:54] <fiXXXerMet> Oh :) I've got that working now.
[08-Nov-2007 15:21:00] <MoreDakka_> Oh
[08-Nov-2007 15:21:04] <MoreDakka_> alright.
[08-Nov-2007 15:21:05] <fiXXXerMet> Finished the upgrade and now there aer no devices
[08-Nov-2007 15:21:25] <MoreDakka_> yeash....did you back everything up?
[08-Nov-2007 15:21:33] <fiXXXerMet> Yup
[08-Nov-2007 15:21:42] <MoreDakka_> is this on a production machine?
[08-Nov-2007 15:21:55] <fiXXXerMet> Yup
[08-Nov-2007 15:22:08] <MoreDakka_> What version are you going from>?
[08-Nov-2007 15:22:09] <fiXXXerMet> But I use that word loosely
[08-Nov-2007 15:22:13] <MoreDakka_> haha
[08-Nov-2007 15:22:17] <fiXXXerMet> Ohhh it was whatever was current before 2.1
[08-Nov-2007 15:22:40] <MoreDakka_> ehhh....why are you trying to upgrade from 2.1 -> 2.1?
[08-Nov-2007 15:22:51] <MoreDakka_> oh nevermind
[08-Nov-2007 15:22:52] <MoreDakka_> haha
[08-Nov-2007 15:22:55] <MoreDakka_> early morning.
[08-Nov-2007 15:23:00] <MoreDakka_> so from 2.0.6?
[08-Nov-2007 15:23:20] <fiXXXerMet> sorry, 2.0.5
[08-Nov-2007 15:23:41] <MoreDakka_> You shouldn't have to zen2dump.py/zen2load.py
[08-Nov-2007 15:23:48] <MoreDakka_> just upgrade....I used RPMs though.
[08-Nov-2007 15:24:00] <fiXXXerMet> Ah, so I should restore and then do it again, without that step?
[08-Nov-2007 15:24:14] <MoreDakka_> Did you install via rpm,?
[08-Nov-2007 15:24:18] <fiXXXerMet> Negative.
[08-Nov-2007 15:24:42] <MoreDakka_> You might want to look through this: http://www.zenoss.com/community/docs/install-guides/zenoss-upgrade-instructions/
[08-Nov-2007 15:24:55] <adytum-bot^> Title: Zenoss - Zenoss Upgrade Instructions - Open Source Application, Server, and Network Management (at www.zenoss.com)
[08-Nov-2007 15:25:09] <MoreDakka_> Tells you how to upgrade pretty much however you installed it.
[08-Nov-2007 15:25:15] <MoreDakka_> rpm is nice and easy ;-)
[08-Nov-2007 15:25:37] <MoreDakka_> I like my program installs like I like my women....easy ;-) hehe
[08-Nov-2007 15:25:54] <cluther_> heh..
[08-Nov-2007 15:26:19] <cluther_> fiXXXerMet: If your devices are missing there may be something you can do to get them back.
[08-Nov-2007 15:26:19] <fiXXXerMet> heh, thakns for the help
[08-Nov-2007 15:26:40] <fiXXXerMet> cluther_: Like what?
[08-Nov-2007 15:26:56] <cluther_> fiXXXerMet: Shut down zenoss entirely, move your $ZENHOME/var/Data* to another safe directory.
[08-Nov-2007 15:27:08] <cluther_> fiXXXerMet: Then copy in the Data.fs from pre-upgrade.
[08-Nov-2007 15:27:16] <cluther_> fiXXXerMet: Then start ZEO "zeoctl start"
[08-Nov-2007 15:27:25] <cluther_> fiXXXerMet: Then run zenmigrate
[08-Nov-2007 15:27:33] <fiXXXerMet> ok
[08-Nov-2007 15:27:38] <cluther_> fiXXXerMet: Then start the rest zenoss.
[08-Nov-2007 15:27:44] <MoreDakka_> zenmigrate is a nice program ;-)
[08-Nov-2007 15:28:50] <cluther_> I think we should rename it to "zenfixeverythingandmakemebreakfast"
[08-Nov-2007 15:29:00] <fiXXXerMet> brreakfast huh
[08-Nov-2007 15:29:05] <MoreDakka_> yep....fixed my headaches./
[08-Nov-2007 15:29:23] <MoreDakka_> it would be nice if you typed that in the morning and it would make you breakfast...that would be sweet.
[08-Nov-2007 15:29:33] <cluther_> Maybe for 3.0..
[08-Nov-2007 15:29:35] <cluther_> :)
[08-Nov-2007 15:29:46] <cluther_> Anyone here going to LISA next week?
[08-Nov-2007 15:30:07] <fiXXXerMet> LISA?
[08-Nov-2007 15:30:25] <cluther_> The Large Installation System Administrators conference in Dallas, TX, USA.
[08-Nov-2007 15:31:04] <cluther_> One of the bigger open source events around. I'm getting to go this year for the first time. I've heard it's a great time.
[08-Nov-2007 15:31:08] <MoreDakka_> If zenmirate can fly me down there...
[08-Nov-2007 15:31:11] <cluther_> hehe
[08-Nov-2007 15:31:13] <MoreDakka_> zenmigrate
[08-Nov-2007 15:31:34] <fiXXXerMet> Well zenmigrate shot out a lot of errors
[08-Nov-2007 15:31:49] <cluther_> pastebin them?
[08-Nov-2007 15:31:54] <MoreDakka_> cluther: thanks again for all your help getting my data from 1.1.1 -> 2.1....what a time saver...

[08-Nov-2007 15:40:14] <cluther_> fiXXXerMet: ugh, that's bad.
[08-Nov-2007 15:40:25] <cluther_> fiXXXerMet: Are you coming from a 1.x version?
[08-Nov-2007 15:40:56] <fiXXXerMet> 2.0.5
[08-Nov-2007 15:42:27] <cluther_> fiXXXerMet: If you haven't already tried, start up the rest of zenoss "zenoss start" and see if you can bring up the web interface.
[08-Nov-2007 15:44:43] <fiXXXerMet> curious. Everything is up.
[08-Nov-2007 15:45:05] <fiXXXerMet> And collecting.
[08-Nov-2007 15:46:44] <MoreDakka_> Ha...that's never good when cluther says "ugh, that's bad" :-/ hehe.
[08-Nov-2007 15:46:45] <cluther_> fiXXXerMet: curious indeed.. I figured that it might work since the reindex completely without errors after all of those uid errors.
[08-Nov-2007 15:47:03] <fiXXXerMet> hehe
[08-Nov-2007 15:47:05] <cluther_> completely = completed
[08-Nov-2007 15:47:24] <cluther_> So long as you have a backup everything is fine! :)
[08-Nov-2007 15:47:33] <fiXXXerMet> aye
[08-Nov-2007 15:47:43] <fiXXXerMet> Still looking to buy support anyway.
[08-Nov-2007 15:47:48] <fiXXXerMet> Looks like the have support for $100?
[08-Nov-2007 15:49:40] <cluther_> fiXXXerMet: That $100 is per device per year assuming you don't qualify for any of the discounts. That is also for the silver subscription which gets you access to all of the enterprise functionality too.
[08-Nov-2007 15:50:55] <fiXXXerMet> oh, per device. That's a bit more expensive then :)
[08-Nov-2007 15:56:56] <monrad_> i did the math for our 1400 devices
[08-Nov-2007 15:57:10] <monrad_> its kinda expensive
[08-Nov-2007 15:57:17] monrad_ is now known as monrad
[08-Nov-2007 16:00:05] <MoreDakka_> ouch..that would be a little expensive.
[08-Nov-2007 16:00:29] <MoreDakka_> 140000/year....
[08-Nov-2007 16:01:04] <monrad> i think we reach 2000 in 3-6 months
[08-Nov-2007 16:01:31] <monrad> but rrdtool is kinda a limiting factor in growth
[08-Nov-2007 16:07:06] <monrad> right now we dont collect port information on our access switches
[08-Nov-2007 16:17:40] <cluther_> monrad: There is a lot that can be done to tune RRD. Check out http://oss.oetiker.ch/rrdtool-trac/wiki/TuningRRD if you haven't already read it.

[08-Nov-2007 16:18:43] * Bulwinkle pokes cluther_ in the eye... where the heck have you been? Tired of getting jumped on in here? ;)
[08-Nov-2007 16:19:43] <cluther_> Bulwinkle: Hello to you too. :)
[08-Nov-2007 16:20:11] <cluther_> Bulwinkle: Time management issues and all of that. IRC can be pretty disruptive.
[08-Nov-2007 16:21:02] <Bulwinkle> cluther_: I totally understand... My whole zenoss evaluation is on complete hold until some other things get done.
[08-Nov-2007 16:26:24] <monrad> cluther_: i think we done it most, i am personaly looking forward to rrd 1.4, because right now it takes a lot of ram
[08-Nov-2007 16:27:20] <cluther_> yeah.. setting your RRD fs blocksize really small and using the fadvise patch can definitely help with that though.
[08-Nov-2007 16:28:46] <monrad> sent 56009 OID requests, collected 1010 of 1010 devices in 22.14
[08-Nov-2007 16:29:14] <monrad> we a just pinging a couple of 100's of the boxes
[08-Nov-2007 16:30:49] <sh3lld3r> afternoon gentlemans
[08-Nov-2007 16:30:50] <monrad> but when the datacollector uses a lot of ram we are back to 250-350 seconds
[08-Nov-2007 16:51:11] <sh3lld3r> zenoss turn my pc into a 386
[08-Nov-2007 16:51:30] <sh3lld3r> and i still didn´t extract what i want from it hhihihi =3
[08-Nov-2007 17:15:19] <sh3lld3r> do i have to open smnp port in each machine that i want that zenoss find? :)
[08-Nov-2007 17:15:50] <cluther> sh3lld3r: yes
[08-Nov-2007 17:17:52] <jlar> I'm trying to figure out how to exempt a class of devices from being monitored for snmp, but i can't find a way to do so
[08-Nov-2007 17:18:09] <MoreDakka_> I'm trying to use the httpmonitor zenpack and creating a graph but I don't get any "Graph Points" selection under the Graph Definition...
[08-Nov-2007 17:18:14] <jlar> is it possible to do this?
[08-Nov-2007 17:18:41] <MoreDakka_> jlar: Under properties for that class change SNMPMonitorIgnore -> True
[08-Nov-2007 17:19:01] <jlar> :-P doh
[08-Nov-2007 17:19:03] <jlar> ty
[08-Nov-2007 17:19:06] <MoreDakka_> np ;-)
[08-Nov-2007 17:23:05] <cluther> MoreDakka_: You should be able to add graph points using any of the data points that were defined for the HttpMonitor like time and size.
[08-Nov-2007 17:25:21] <MoreDakka_> That's what I thought too but there is no selection under the graph definition to select either of the data points that were defined in DataSource.DataPoints (under the DataSource it does show DataPoints "size" and "time")
[08-Nov-2007 17:30:19] MoreDakka_ is now known as MoreDakka
[08-Nov-2007 17:33:28] <jlar> ok, rephrase: I want to turn off monitoring for the IpService snmp for a group of machines that aren't running snmp. Setting SNMPMonitorIgnore to True doesn't seem to have this effect
[08-Nov-2007 17:37:50] <MoreDakka> Has zenoss generated another snmp error in the last 10 minutes (usually on a 20 minute polling cycle)
[08-Nov-2007 17:40:20] <jlar> yes, it's set for 4 minutes for testing, and it's given me the error each time around
[08-Nov-2007 17:43:26] <MoreDakka> Strange. I've got a lot of devices under a class that I have PingMonitorIgnore, SNMPMonitorIgnore, WMIMonitorIgnore and WMIMonitorIgnorer set to True and I don't get any events on those devices at all. (Need to sort them and adjust stuff ...tired of getting errors about them)
[08-Nov-2007 17:46:44] <cluther> jlar: IpServices can be modeled via SNMP, but they are always monitored by actually creating the TCP connection.
[08-Nov-2007 17:47:28] <MoreDakka> Would that then be turned off on the OS tab?
[08-Nov-2007 17:47:59] <cluther> MoreDakka: Yeah.. set the service to not be monitored. Either at the device level from the OS tab, or globally from Services.
[08-Nov-2007 17:48:17] <MoreDakka> But can't set it to a Class then.
[08-Nov-2007 17:48:23] <jlar> ok, so i can do it on a device level or global level, but not class
[08-Nov-2007 17:48:27] <jlar> :-P
[08-Nov-2007 17:48:31] <MoreDakka> <-faster
[08-Nov-2007 17:48:36] <MoreDakka> :-P
[08-Nov-2007 17:51:05] <jlar> which leads me to another question... when i open the OS tab for this device, there is no IpService entry, do i have to create a new ipserver there and set it to not be monitored?
[08-Nov-2007 17:53:01] <jlar> ipservice, that is
[08-Nov-2007 17:53:05] <cluther> jlar: No.. if you don't see it there it won't be monitored.
[08-Nov-2007 17:54:19] <MoreDakka> cluther, is there a suggestion that I can do to get me some datapoints for my graph?
[08-Nov-2007 17:57:35] <jlar> cluther: and yet, i'm still getting 'snmp agent down on device' even though there is no IpService under the OSprocesses tab
[08-Nov-2007 17:58:49] <cluther> snmp agent down on device has nothing to do with IpService monitoring. It is zenperfsnmp complaining that it can't reach the device via snmp. If you already set zSnmpMonitorIgnore to True for the device/device class you could try pushing changes to the device from the device's manage menu.
[08-Nov-2007 17:59:58] <cluther> MoreDakka: When you go to Add DataPoint from the graph points menu none show up?
[08-Nov-2007 18:01:23] FuL|OUT is now known as fulgas
[08-Nov-2007 18:03:03] <MoreDakka> Ehh...I don't have an "add datapoint" menu.
[08-Nov-2007 18:03:42] <MoreDakka> All I have is a drop-down with "Add to ZenPack"
[08-Nov-2007 18:05:04] <jlar> cluther: ok, that makes sense, ty
[08-Nov-2007 18:05:45] <cluther> MoreDakka: On the "Graph Points" menu that is up at the top when you click into a graph definition?
[08-Nov-2007 18:06:03] Spec[x] is now known as Spec
[08-Nov-2007 18:06:50] <MoreDakka> Should there be a drop down menu on the "Graph Points" Titlebar?
[08-Nov-2007 18:07:04] <MoreDakka> Because I don't have one.
[08-Nov-2007 18:07:34] <MoreDakka> Is it time to have zenmigrate come and make breakfast?
[08-Nov-2007 18:09:30] <cluther> I suppose so.
[08-Nov-2007 18:12:57] <MoreDakka> I bet zenmigrate can turn water into wine too.
[08-Nov-2007 18:13:05] <MoreDakka> that got me the drop down menu.
[08-Nov-2007 18:16:48] <MoreDakka> Where can I see the log for the httpmonitor zenpack?
[08-Nov-2007 18:53:21] <MoreDakka> Where can I see the log for the httpmonitor zenpack?

[08-Nov-2007 19:19:52] <zak> I'm evaluating Zenoss and I'm wondering if/how it can work with a master server and remote data collectors; we have a bunch of data centers and want to be able to monitor each with a probe local to that center and aggregate the data into a master server.
[08-Nov-2007 19:19:58] <zak> Hiya cluther! :)
[08-Nov-2007 19:20:38] <cluther> zak: There's a howto up on our site that explains the process.
[08-Nov-2007 19:20:39] <zak> I want to get rid of that damned OpManager crap software but management won't budge unless I can prove Zenoss will do the trick. :}
[08-Nov-2007 19:21:24] <zak> Oh thank you! Mind pasting the URL? I found only one page on the subject and it basically described bypassing a firewall.

[08-Nov-2007 19:22:35] <cluther> heh.. that's the one.
[08-Nov-2007 19:22:58] <zak> Ah! Hey thanks, I saw that one but did not think it applied to, for example availability monitoring.
[08-Nov-2007 19:23:02] <zak> I'll play with it a bit, thank you!
[08-Nov-2007 19:23:34] <cluther> zak: You can distribute the other pieces too, it's just a bit more work because zenping/zenmodeler haven't been ported to the new zenhub architecture.
[08-Nov-2007 19:24:33] <zak> Ah! So it doesn't really work that way YET, as a master/slave or probe/hub type setup...
[08-Nov-2007 19:25:46] <zak> Pretty big learning curve to Zenoss, chatted with a sales dude yesterday and it looks like our #1 choice, but the master/slave support seems quite iffy...
[08-Nov-2007 19:30:43] <zak> I'll give it a shot... if not, Nagios will have to do.
[08-Nov-2007 19:30:43] <cluther> zak: It definitely can work that way.. we have a few customers using it that way.
[08-Nov-2007 19:30:52] <zak> Oh great! OK I'll try it out...
[08-Nov-2007 19:31:24] <zak> It looked like that HOWTO applied to certain perf monitoring only.
[08-Nov-2007 19:31:38] <zak> Thanks, this might actually work after all! :>
[08-Nov-2007 19:31:59] <zak> If I can prove this all works I can get management to spend some money and get rid of OpManager!
[08-Nov-2007 19:32:31] <MoreDakka> cluther, is there a place where I can see the log from the httpmonitor zenpack?
[08-Nov-2007 19:32:54] <cluther> MoreDakka: HttpMonitor just runs COMMAND type data sources under the covers, so it would log to zencommand.log.
[08-Nov-2007 19:34:59] <MoreDakka> thnx :-D
[08-Nov-2007 19:38:45] <zak> Other than that, Zenoss kicks big-time ass! :}
[08-Nov-2007 21:40:47] <fiXXXerMet> How do you "connect" locations, so that they are linked in the network map and on the location map?
[08-Nov-2007 21:41:25] <MoreDakka> routes
[08-Nov-2007 21:42:18] <MoreDakka> If SNMP is enabled on the devices and zenoss is polling them and the devices have networks to eachother then zenoss will automatically create the links between them
[08-Nov-2007 21:42:57] <monrad> its quite ugly when you have more devices on the subnet
[08-Nov-2007 21:49:12] <fiXXXerMet> I know our locations are routed as I can ping and remote desktop and they are listed in dns, but they aren't showing up.
[08-Nov-2007 22:03:11] <fiXXXerMet> I kind of deleted all of the default device paths (/network/, /server/, etc). Can I get them back?
[08-Nov-2007 22:03:54] <MoreDakka> There is a command for it...starts with zen....zen something.....

[08-Nov-2007 22:25:12] <cluther> jlar: The first would be to tell zenoss that the device has indeed had something change about it..
[08-Nov-2007 22:25:24] <cluther> jlar: You can do this by loading up zendmd and running this..

[08-Nov-2007 22:27:32] <jlar> ok. i'll give that a shot
[08-Nov-2007 22:27:59] <cluther> jlar: If that doesn't work.. restart zenhub.

[08-Nov-2007 23:37:12] <tessier_> How do most people monitor a bunch of websites in a web farm? They aren't really "devices"
[08-Nov-2007 23:39:54] <tessier_> I know how to use the nagios plugin to monitor with check_http but having to put that in the template seems rather weird.
[08-Nov-2007 23:40:04] <tessier_> Normally a template is something that should apply to a bunch of machines.
[08-Nov-2007 23:40:13] <tessier_> Having an individual template for each web site I want to monitor doesn't seem right.

[09-Nov-2007 06:08:47] <tessier> I can't believe how quiet it is in here for such a popular program.
[09-Nov-2007 06:08:52] <tessier> Even #nagios has more chatter. :)
[09-Nov-2007 07:20:32] <tessier> ugh
[09-Nov-2007 07:21:23] <tessier> I am beginning to think that zenoss is every bit as complicated as nagios, if not more so. At the very least it just seems to be moving the complication from a set of text based config files to a byzantine set of templates and devices and zProperties etc.
[09-Nov-2007 07:30:24] <mf2ng> tessier: i concur
[09-Nov-2007 07:30:38] <mf2ng> bit of useless irc-chan mostly
[09-Nov-2007 07:31:35] <mf2ng> but, im not paying anything... so... :)
[09-Nov-2007 07:32:09] <tessier> Indeed.
[09-Nov-2007 10:43:48] <thefish> hi folks
[09-Nov-2007 10:44:24] <thefish> im getting stuck with monitoring windows machines, can someone help please? In the admin manual, it says have a look at the README.txt file in the ZenWin directory
[09-Nov-2007 10:44:32] <thefish> however, there is no README in that dir
[09-Nov-2007 10:44:47] <thefish> there seems to be conflicting stuff on what to do
[09-Nov-2007 10:45:14] <thefish> install snmp, install snmp-informant, install python and zenwin on the monitored host...
[09-Nov-2007 10:45:36] <thefish> http://www.zenoss.com/community/docs/install-guides/zenwin-installation/?searchterm=zenwin
[09-Nov-2007 10:45:45] <thefish> is this a sort of windows agent?
[09-Nov-2007 10:45:53] <adytum-bot`> Title: Zenoss - ZenWin Installation - Open Source Application, Server, and Network Management (at www.zenoss.com)
[09-Nov-2007 11:16:56] <mf2ng> thefish: WindowsWMIDeviceTemplate ZenPack was released just
[09-Nov-2007 11:17:13] <mf2ng> so there should not be need to install snmpinformant agent
[09-Nov-2007 11:17:38] <mf2ng> just trying to get it work, but while it is my first zenpack install it'l take some time it seems =)
[09-Nov-2007 11:18:47] <thefish> cool, mf2ng if you want any help let me know, im interested too!
[09-Nov-2007 11:19:02] <thefish> it seems there are not much docs for windows monitoring, or am i missing something?
[09-Nov-2007 11:19:44] <mf2ng> http://www.zenoss.com/community/projects/zenpacks/windowswmidevicetemplate
[09-Nov-2007 11:19:58] <adytum-bot`> Title: Zenoss - ZenPack - WindowsWMIDeviceTemplate - Open Source Application, Server, and Network Management (at www.zenoss.com)
[09-Nov-2007 11:20:14] <mf2ng> well, windows monitoring seems to be at least mostly the enterprice zenoss applications
[09-Nov-2007 11:21:21] <thefish> mm
[09-Nov-2007 11:21:55] <mf2ng> but the basics are instructed quite reasonably in the zenoss guide
[09-Nov-2007 11:26:39] <thefish> mf2ng, is that the admin guide available from the site?
[09-Nov-2007 11:26:49] <thefish> ive been following that, with instructions to enable snmp etc
[09-Nov-2007 11:26:57] <thefish> but then there is this zenWin
[09-Nov-2007 11:27:05] <thefish> is that an enterprise addon?
[09-Nov-2007 12:23:45] <mf2ng> thefish: yes, that adminguide from the site

[09-Nov-2007 12:26:24] <mf2ng> hmm, any1 know why i can't map two unknown events to new class
[09-Nov-2007 12:26:51] <mf2ng> ServeRAID Manager Agent:/Unknown:Logical drive is critical: controller 1, logical drive 3 ("Drive 3").
[09-Nov-2007 12:27:32] <mf2ng> it would be quite nice to have that kind of events to be taken more seriously than "info" =)
[09-Nov-2007 12:28:07] <mf2ng> also, related to this prob... i cannot find any info for the oid 1.3.6.1.4.1.795.14.1.0.1030
[09-Nov-2007 13:51:29] <jp10558> If I have a template from a Zenpack, how do I bind it to a new subcontainer?
[09-Nov-2007 13:54:08] <FelipeBare> someone monitoring oracle databases with zenoss ?
[09-Nov-2007 14:16:56] <thefish> is there a way to add a MIB as a text file?
[09-Nov-2007 14:27:08] <jp10558> If I reinstall a zenpack, what does that do?
[09-Nov-2007 15:05:50] <mf2ng> thefish: just drop the mibfile to /opt/zenoss/share/mib/site ja run zenmib run /path/to/mib as zenoss user
[09-Nov-2007 15:25:54] <thefish> mf2ng, thanks, all done
[09-Nov-2007 15:26:16] <thefish> it wont recognise old traps, will have to wait for a new one to see if it understands it now
[09-Nov-2007 15:42:11] <mf2ng> yup
[09-Nov-2007 15:42:19] <mf2ng> that's true
[09-Nov-2007 16:11:43] <thefish> mf2ng, should it automatically understand new traps after installing the MIB, or do i have to do something else?
[09-Nov-2007 16:43:31] <thefish> im still getting traps like 1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.5.5
[09-Nov-2007 16:43:48] <thefish> actually that doesnt seem to be in the mib anyway...

[09-Nov-2007 19:01:35] <jon3k> So I noticed that NetFlow supposed has a milestone for Zenos-3000
[09-Nov-2007 19:01:43] <jon3k> is there an official ETA for Zenoss-3000?
[09-Nov-2007 19:02:25] <jon3k> And does the name refer have anything to do with Python 3000?
[09-Nov-2007 19:11:15] <jp10558> no, Zenoss - 3000 is as I understand it a placeholder for "it'd be nice, but we have no idea when we'll get to it"
[09-Nov-2007 19:11:36] <jp10558> Does anyone here understand Performance Templates + binding to a class?

[11-Nov-2007 09:46:28] <Symmetria> hrm
[11-Nov-2007 09:46:40] <Symmetria> Im busy trying to get zenoss to monitor performance on interfaces
[11-Nov-2007 09:46:48] <Symmetria> but when I go to that page it just sits there showing me nothing
[11-Nov-2007 09:47:21] <Jeremiah-R> which page?
[11-Nov-2007 09:49:24] <Symmetria> if you go to a device, then go to OS and it has a list of interfaces
[11-Nov-2007 09:49:27] <Symmetria> click on an interface
[11-Nov-2007 09:49:43] <Symmetria> it says IpInterface with name GigabitEthernet1/24
[11-Nov-2007 09:49:46] <Symmetria> shows the mac etc
[11-Nov-2007 09:49:49] <Symmetria> but no performance data
[11-Nov-2007 09:51:05] <Jeremiah-R> hmmm is it showing graphs at all but blank? or nothing below performance graphs?
[11-Nov-2007 09:51:59] <Symmetria> shows the performance graphs heading, shows throughput with a zoom in and zoom out magnifying glass, but absolutely no data next to it
[11-Nov-2007 09:52:45] <Jeremiah-R> and it has been that way long enough for it to get data? like 3 poll cycles and all?
[11-Nov-2007 09:52:56] <Symmetria> heh yeah its been like that for the last 2 hours
[11-Nov-2007 09:53:00] <Jeremiah-R> hah
[11-Nov-2007 09:53:03] <Jeremiah-R> hmm
[11-Nov-2007 09:53:29] <Jeremiah-R> not to be obtuse but that interface does actually have traffic on it and is up?
[11-Nov-2007 09:54:12] <Symmetria> errr currently pushing 173mbit/second through it :)
[11-Nov-2007 09:54:27] <Symmetria> according to my netflow systems :)
[11-Nov-2007 09:54:27] <Jeremiah-R> well that would be some traffic then ;)
[11-Nov-2007 09:54:55] <Jeremiah-R> under the graph does it show nan for the values? or does cur, avg or max have at least some info?
[11-Nov-2007 09:56:20] <Symmetria> graphs dont actually seem to even load, there is nothing where the graphs should be
[11-Nov-2007 09:56:25] <Jeremiah-R> oh
[11-Nov-2007 09:56:38] <Jeremiah-R> well that would be different then
[11-Nov-2007 09:56:50] * Symmetria wonders if its his browser
[11-Nov-2007 09:56:51] <Jeremiah-R> you are pulling the info with the standard templates?
[11-Nov-2007 09:56:56] <Symmetria> heh maybe its firefox screwing up
[11-Nov-2007 09:56:57] <Symmetria> yeah
[11-Nov-2007 09:57:12] <Jeremiah-R> I had that happen... *trying to remember what it was*
[11-Nov-2007 09:58:40] <Jeremiah-R> add any custom thresholds or anything? I botched one of those and it killed my graphs
[11-Nov-2007 09:59:24] <Symmetria> hrm, nope
[11-Nov-2007 09:59:59] <Jeremiah-R> is it doing it on all interfaces on the system or just this interface or device?
[11-Nov-2007 10:00:07] <Symmetria> all of them
[11-Nov-2007 10:00:21] <Jeremiah-R> hmm, are all of the daemons running?
[11-Nov-2007 10:00:21] <Symmetria> heh interesting, internet explorer cant browse to this system *at all* it aborts operation
[11-Nov-2007 10:00:25] <Symmetria> yip they are
[11-Nov-2007 10:00:37] <Symmetria> (was trying i.E just to see if firefox was messing up)
[11-Nov-2007 10:00:42] <Jeremiah-R> yeah
[11-Nov-2007 10:01:51] <Symmetria> hrm, I think something else is screwed since I.E claims there are a ton of errors on the page
[11-Nov-2007 10:02:20] <Jeremiah-R> could be, as I recall bad threshold or daemons not running did it to me before
[11-Nov-2007 10:02:29] <Jeremiah-R> it is doing it for both gig and fa interfaces?
[11-Nov-2007 10:02:38] <Symmetria> I dont have any FA interfaces :)
[11-Nov-2007 10:02:45] <Symmetria> heh I only have gig and 10gig interfaces
[11-Nov-2007 10:02:54] <Jeremiah-R> hmm
[11-Nov-2007 10:03:31] <Jeremiah-R> I know I had to do some playing with our gig interfaces to get them to graph properly because the 32 bit counters rolled over to fast but I at least had graphs the values were just wrong
[11-Nov-2007 10:05:49] <Symmetria> hehe I wlil play with it see what I can figure out
[11-Nov-2007 10:06:07] <Symmetria> at least I get furhter with zenoss than I got with hyperic, hyperic refused to even see any of the SVI's
[11-Nov-2007 10:06:27] <Jeremiah-R> heh
[11-Nov-2007 10:08:29] <Jeremiah-R> did you try...
[11-Nov-2007 10:08:38] <Jeremiah-R> zenperfsnmp -d device -v10
[11-Nov-2007 10:08:38] <Jeremiah-R> ?
[11-Nov-2007 10:09:51] * Symmetria tries
[11-Nov-2007 10:09:56] <Symmetria> brb
[11-Nov-2007 10:10:39] <Jeremiah-R> oops should have been no space between -d and device
[11-Nov-2007 17:35:56] <punkpussy> Hi
[11-Nov-2007 17:36:48] <punkpussy> I have modeled a bunch of Linux devices. Most of them give the CPU Utilizations Treshold not met error. I disabled this template by setting "monitor" to false.
[11-Nov-2007 17:37:07] <punkpussy> I still keep getting the error messages. Is this change not applied to existing devices?

[14-Nov-2007 20:43:04] <MoreDakka> Do you know if windows can send a trap if a user is getting close to filling their quota? Or if there is SNMP OID for it?
[14-Nov-2007 20:43:52] <dom> I know there's an optional snmp interface to wmi that should provide that
[14-Nov-2007 20:44:01] <dom> but I've never implemented
[14-Nov-2007 20:44:15] <MoreDakka> I've looked through the SNMP-Informant but can't find anything about quotas.
[14-Nov-2007 21:18:08] <z1pp1ty> zenwin isn't modeling one of my servers, is there anyway i can force it to?
[14-Nov-2007 21:26:13] <dom> have you tried the -d option on the command line?
[14-Nov-2007 21:33:58] <z1pp1ty> what is the full command i should
[14-Nov-2007 21:34:11] <z1pp1ty> run?

[14-Nov-2007 21:40:22] <z1pp1ty> what am i doing wrong?

[14-Nov-2007 21:43:42] <z1pp1ty> ?
[14-Nov-2007 21:43:53] <z1pp1ty> it doesn't like that
[14-Nov-2007 21:45:36] <dom> I think you have to use the device name that is in zenoss
[14-Nov-2007 21:47:20] <z1pp1ty> it doesn't like the format
[14-Nov-2007 21:47:21] <z1pp1ty> Usage: /opt/zenoss/bin/zenwin {run|start|stop|restart|status|help|genconf} [options]
[14-Nov-2007 21:47:37] <dom> I just thought of something else, check the devices' zProperties, near the bottom you'll see zWinUser and zWinPassword. Try putting in a valid username and password for that box.
[14-Nov-2007 21:47:46] <dom> os, zenwin run -d ...

[14-Nov-2007 21:56:11] <MoreDakka> with zwineventlog does WMI need to be active on the box for it to work?
[14-Nov-2007 22:00:38] <dom> yes, that also relies on wmi, not snmp

[14-Nov-2007 22:07:53] <dom> zip, not sure what that issue is. looks like it's connecting, though. maybe try a wmi browser and see if you can get data at all through wmi. you can also enable wmi logging by going into the properties of WMI Control in computer management.
[14-Nov-2007 22:11:35] <dom> gotta run. hope everything turns out well-

[15-Nov-2007 17:16:56] <UbuntuGuy> HI -- I'm looking at Zenoss from a carrier perspective. I need to know what devices are supported out of the box Where can I find this info?
[15-Nov-2007 17:46:01] <progma> UbuntuGuy: look at vendor's snmp
[15-Nov-2007 17:46:30] <progma> UbuntuGuy: basically if your hardware vendor has snmp oids, zenoss can use that info
[15-Nov-2007 17:47:39] <MoreDakka> progma....yay someone else is in this channel.
[15-Nov-2007 17:47:45] <MoreDakka> sooo slow in here the past couple days.

[15-Nov-2007 17:48:48] <MoreDakka> bah :(
[15-Nov-2007 17:48:50] <progma> i haven't even set that up yet
[15-Nov-2007 17:48:57] <MoreDakka> How about:
[15-Nov-2007 17:49:00] <MoreDakka> Anyone know if Zenoss can be set to error on 60% PL?
[15-Nov-2007 17:49:11] <MoreDakka> (hehe....typed these before)
[15-Nov-2007 17:51:16] <UbuntuGuy> progma: right, but can it understand the data? Think of ATM switches, voice switches, XYLANs, cisco GSRs etc, etc. Vendors like Marconi, Fujitsu, cisco, etc. All of these support SNMP to one degree or another, but can Zenoss understand what it gets back?
[15-Nov-2007 17:52:04] <progma> UbuntuGuy: it depends on what you want understood; the responses are usually integer values or text descriptions; with integer values you can set min and max thresholds and take action when those thresholds are breached
[15-Nov-2007 17:52:13] <progma> the values can also be graphed
[15-Nov-2007 17:52:33] <progma> so for example a cisco switch, you can graph bandwidth usage and cpu usage over time and keep history
[15-Nov-2007 17:52:51] <progma> and then setup alerting if >80% usage is hit etc
[15-Nov-2007 17:53:51] <progma> i have a sensatronics temp and humidity monitor that i graph temps with; it's just a little embedded device with an ethernet port and some wire probes
[15-Nov-2007 17:54:54] <UbuntuGuy> progma: got it! Thanks
[15-Nov-2007 17:55:36] <progma> UbuntuGuy: no prob; the auto discovery feature is nice so if you already have an snmp infrastructure of sorts setup, you can just have zenoss see what it finds off the bat
[15-Nov-2007 17:56:56] <progma> UbuntuGuy: it's based heavily on snmp and syslog fyi; i use my central syslog-ng server with zenoss
[15-Nov-2007 17:57:23] <progma> so you can setup alerting on standard syslog levels i.e. crit/debug/info
[15-Nov-2007 17:57:39] <eurowerke> dunk
[15-Nov-2007 17:57:47] <MoreDakka> progma: Do you forward all the logs from your syslog-ng -> your zenoss server?
[15-Nov-2007 17:58:09] <MoreDakka> Then zenoss sorts it?
[15-Nov-2007 18:01:09] <UbuntuGuy> progma: Am I right in saying that zenoss is primarily an alarm-generating system? Like Netcool or HPOV or the like?
[15-Nov-2007 18:04:00] <eurowerke> i wouldn't say *primarily*
[15-Nov-2007 18:04:06] <eurowerke> but that is a main function, yes
[15-Nov-2007 18:05:50] <MoreDakka> Zenoss can generate reports and graphs (now maps, and network maps)
[15-Nov-2007 18:06:55] <UbuntuGuy> How well does it scale? Our network has many thousands of switches and routers
[15-Nov-2007 18:07:50] <MoreDakka> heh, I can't relate...only monitoring about 160 devices right now....hasn't even broken a sweat on a 1ghz box.
[15-Nov-2007 18:09:09] <PerlStalker> UbuntuGuy: Zenoss supports using multiple monitors as well
[15-Nov-2007 18:09:38] <UbuntuGuy> is there provision for hot failover to standby systems with geodiversity?
[15-Nov-2007 18:10:08] <eurowerke> wow Dakk, would have thought that would have been a decent load

[16-Nov-2007 03:56:48] <Jeremah-R> does anyone know if the topology created by zenping is involved when the links on the google map or network map are drawn?
[16-Nov-2007 03:59:26] <PerlStalker> Jeremah-R: To my knowledge, the lines are created based on the networks and addresses learned for each device.
[16-Nov-2007 04:00:09] <Jeremah-R> Hmmm, ok, thanks for the info. trying to figure out why the google maps are drawing the lines the way it is...
[16-Nov-2007 04:03:24] <Jeremah-R> Well then related. Does anyone know how the links are drawn? Not the code but the logic behind how they figure out how to map between two points. I know it is based on network other than that, does each location go to the location where the gateway IP is or ... ?
[16-Nov-2007 04:04:04] <PerlStalker> The links go to the address specified for each Location.
[16-Nov-2007 04:05:08] <PerlStalker> So you create a Location for each place where you have equipment then put your Devices in the proper Locations.
[16-Nov-2007 04:05:14] <Jeremah-R> well I mean if you have 2 locations that are in the same subnet a link gets drawn between them. But what if you have three locations in the same subnet? How does it know where to draw the links?
[16-Nov-2007 04:05:32] <PerlStalker> I think it tries to create a complete graph.
[16-Nov-2007 04:05:39] <PerlStalker> All three points are linked.
[16-Nov-2007 04:06:09] <PerlStalker> It would be nice if those links could be setup manually instead.
[16-Nov-2007 04:06:49] <PerlStalker> Especially since, in my case, I want to monitor the bridges between certain of my routers.
[16-Nov-2007 04:06:52] <Jeremah-R> yeah that is what I have been seeing, but it is incorrect based on the routing on the devices so I was wondering what the actual logic behind them is. It would seem logical that it would draw to what ever location contained the gateway IP but it doesnt seem to be doing that.
[16-Nov-2007 04:06:57] <Jeremah-R> yeah same kind of thing here

[16-Nov-2007 17:42:39] <PerlStalker> MoreDakka_: I don't know about your Google Maps thing but I know that if you can get the data into zenoss, you can generate alerts on it.
[16-Nov-2007 17:43:21] <MoreDakka_> I'm wondering if anyone has built a zenpack for something like that.
[16-Nov-2007 17:43:34] <PerlStalker> Perhaps but I haven't seen one.
