[opennms-discuss] Cpu Util for Win32, happy joy joy,

[Ted K. <te...@op...>]

Started looking into getting OpenNMS to collect all win32 cpu data
OpenNMS default is setup for Win2K/2000.
>From datacollection-config.xml

<group name = "windows-host" ifType = "ignore">
   <mibObj oid=".1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.3.1.2" instance="1"
alias="cpuPercentBusy" type="integer" />

This appears to only be valid for single cpu boxes.
Mulitple cpu boxes will return individual cpu values for instance
1,2,3,4 etc. So I have to assume that OpenNMS is only graphing
the first CPU's load. 

Also, XP pro throws a monkey wrench into this as well.
I don't even see any response at all for instance 1 or 2.
The XP Pro box I am testing against is a single CPU hyperthreaded box.
It responds for instance 3 and 4.

My near term approach will be to generate the rrd's out of band, the
question is are their plans to address this type of data collection
issues, and what is the desired approach.

I am thinking maybe a new table(s) somehwere to identify hyper threading
and smp boxes. Then use this to decide how to collect the data. Will
leave it to the experts to figure out how to make it work :-)
