[mrtg] Re: Monitoring Novell servers

[Garth K. Williams]

Check out my web site (www.wtcs.org/snmp4tpc), under Implementation/SNMP4NW.
You will find information there about how to set it up, what NLMs to run,
and what OIDs to monitor for various counters (see Management/MRTG).

You will find a link to James Drews MRTG extension NLM for MRTG, and if you
use a name brand server (i.e. Compaq), then I would recommend you load their
management support SNMP agents, and query them for CPU and other counters
(they tend to be a biut more accurate.

Regards and Good Luck!


Garth

Hi Everyone,


I sure hope someone has experience with Novell servers - I am trying to
figure out which MIB to use to poll a Novell server for it's CPU
utilization.

Browsing through Novells own MIB files, didn't help me much - all I could
find was that the server was cabable of sending SNMP traps if the CPU util
exceeds a threshold.

Anyway - i am looking forward to some input on this issue.

Another thing now i'm at it - i'm having problems with my MRTG - sometimes
it seems to stop updating the weekly graphs. I'm running MRTG in Daemon
mode on a Linux server. When I restart MRTG, the graphs are updating,
showing all available data.


Med venlig hilsen/Best regards
