[HOWTO] Install and configure the Net-SNMP agent for Unix

[fmangeant]

Can you try the lib/functions.php from this thread ?

If that doesn't work, I guess you'll have to open a bug

[Smux]

No, this issue dont work for me. I create a issue for my problem here

I've updated the HowTo with Bull links.

Nice HOWTO!

But 'exec' is now deprecated. Got a HOWTO on using 'extend' ?

[fmangeant]

Hi

in fact 'exec' still works with 5.4 :

Code: Select all

$ /usr/sbin/snmpd --version

NET-SNMP version:  5.4.1
Web:               http://www.net-snmp.org/
Email:             net-snmp-coders@lists.sourceforge.net

Code: Select all

$ cat /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf
rocommunity public
disk /
exec foo /tmp/foo.sh

Code: Select all

$ snmpwalk -v 1 -c public localhost exttable
UCD-SNMP-MIB::extIndex.1 = INTEGER: 1
UCD-SNMP-MIB::extNames.1 = STRING: foo
UCD-SNMP-MIB::extCommand.1 = STRING: /tmp/foo.sh
UCD-SNMP-MIB::extResult.1 = INTEGER: 0
UCD-SNMP-MIB::extOutput.1 = STRING: 123
UCD-SNMP-MIB::extErrFix.1 = INTEGER: noError(0)
UCD-SNMP-MIB::extErrFixCmd.1 = STRING:

But the 'exec' keyword does not work anymore with custom OIDs...

I'll update the HowTo soon.

[utdrmac]

But the 'exec' keyword does not work anymore with custom OIDs...

Exactly. And when I use 'extend' like this:

Code: Select all

extend .1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.69 sysLoad /root/sysload_snmp.sh

I get incredibly long OIDs like this:

Code: Select all

.1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.69.3.1.1.13.114.101.106.101.99.116.84.114.97.102.102.105.99

It works; just doesn't look right.

Hi

Cacti is installed on Xp et I want to recover informations from CentOs.
When I save a new device, I have a snmp error.

I followed the tutorial :

com2sec Local 192.168.1.105 public
group ROGroup v1 Local
view all included .1
access ROGroup "" v1 noauth exact all none none


I saved and I restarted the snmp Daemon ...

Hi,

I did an snmpwalk on the .1.3.6.1.4.1.2021 (ucdavis)
to check all the stuff that is available.
But the extTable 1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.8 doesn't seem to be there.
prTable and dskTable are there but not extTable.
How can I add this part?

I can't seem to understand how any of this works.

One point in particular confounds me: How do you know the OID of any particular process? Is there some way to list all of the OIDs currently in use, or a way to get an OID for a process? Would process x have the same OID on every machine or a unique one on any machine running it?

No. But if you create a script that first examines all "process name to index" correlations, you will then know the index to use for e.g. CPU usage.

For me, I've been struggling to graph the snmp "STRING" outputs.
For example:
snmpwalk -v2c -c cdsro228 1.2.3.4 .1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.8.1.101.2
UCD-SNMP-MIB::extOutput.2 = STRING: 10

I setup the SNMP OID Graph Template as stated in the http://forums.cacti.net/viewtopic.php?t=15353 webpage

However, my graphs aren't showing up. I'm getting nan, but whenever the snmp result changes, I see a spike in my graph and then it goes back to zero.

Ideally, I am expecting result between 0 and 100, but whenever this spike happens, I see something like 70m 50u etc.

Is there anything I'm getting wrong? I've tried exec, extend, pass commands of snmp and I'm not making headway at all.

Any Help will be highly appreciated.
