[Hyperic-hq-discuss] problem with solaris 9, ifconfig/sigar & Sun JDK 64 bits

[JeanDagenais2 <sig...@hy...>]

Hello,

We have deployed a new agent on Solaris 9, and I am seeing an exception with the ifconfig command of sigar.

The problem happen with this method invocation:

/** Extract metrics from sigar interface */
String[] ifNames= sigar.getNetInterfaceList();
which cause this exception:

org.hyperic.sigar.SigarFileNotFoundException: No such file or directory
        at org.hyperic.sigar.Sigar.getNetInterfaceList(Native Method)
        at com.performance.agent.AppEnvironmentMonitor.sampleNetwork(AppEnvironmentMonitor.java:1454)
        at com.performance.agent.AppEnvironmentMonitor.start(AppEnvironmentMonitor.java:349)
        at com.performance.agent.AppEnvironmentMonitor.main(AppEnvironmentMonitor.java:142)
5/10/10 06:27:52 PM PDT [ERROR] [com.performance.agent.AppEnvironmentMonitor] Exception when getting metrics from SIGAR


When I run the SIGAR program, this is what I get:
