[Devmon] Template Help

[Chuck B. <cb...@vi...>]

I'm working on a custom template, F5 specifically, and have a question for
those  who have been through this before.  I'm attempting to generate an
alert when the pool member node count drops to a certain point.

 

Oid:

PoolName : .1.3.6.1.4.1.3375.2.2.5.1.2.1.1 : branch

PoolNodeCount : .1.3.6.1.4.1.3375.2.2.5.1.2.1.8 : branch

 

Threshold:

PoolNodeCount : yellow : <4 : {PoolName} Active Node Count {PoolNodeCount}

PoolNodeCount : red : <2 : {PoolName} Active Node Count {PoolNodeCount}

 

PoolNodeCount contains expected values as indicated in the message file, but
alerts are never generated.  Running devmon in verbose mode doesn't yield
any useful information.  What is the best way to troubleshoot this?  Any
thoughts would be appreciated.

 

Thanks,

What version are you using ? 0.3.0-beta2 had a problem with numbeic 
thresholds, it is fixed in svn (I think this is the change that fixed it: 
http://devmon.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/devmon/trunk/modules/dm_tests.pm?r1=3&r2=10)

Could you test with current svn ? If not, I think we will try and release a 
new beta or rc this week.

I would agree to release a new beta call 0.3.0-beta4 and see any bug =20
report in order to fix then.

Personally i have set the 0.3.0-beta4 in production.
It is polling all Firewalls (316) and Network (306) devices.

Note that the typical response to a bug report is a suggestion to try =20
the latest version first (svn). So please try doing that first, and =20
always include which versions you use of relevant software when =20
reporting bugs (minimum: devmon (devmon -V), devices type you are =20
trying to contact with the template.

Currently using beta4.  Snmpwalk returns a repeater type integer of =
expected values.

Did you use {PoolNodeCount.color} in your message file ? If you don't, no 
colors are applied ...

If you don't come right, please supply the message file. Unfortunately, it's 
not easy to add logging of matching of thresholds (the function is written in 
such a way that it returns when matching a threshold), but besides adding a 
{alias.color} tag, there's almost nothing to troubleshoot. When I did it 
myself, I wasted a lot of time before noticing that I needed to make this 
change:
