[mrtg] Re: hrSystemUptime

[Mike Wren]

My interest in UpTime was so I could graph it.  I wanted to know how
often during a year that a device had been rebooted.  I created two
similar script files, one used system.sysUpTime.0 and the other used the
host.hrSystem.hrSystemUptime.0 OID.  With the Routers and switches is
use the system.sysUpTime.0 and computers I use the
host.hrSystem.hrSystemUptime.0.  The script files are the same except
for the OID and are named GetUptime and GetUptimeHr.  Also I got caught
by the fact that system.sysUpTime.0 is the uptime of the SNMP agent, and
if it is stopped and started the value will not reflect that actual
uptime of the computer.

Here is the script file GetUptime:

#!/bin/sh
#script GetUptime so I can graph a devices uptime
#
RESPONSE=`snmpget -Ov -c $1 $2 system.sysUpTime.0`
VALUE=`echo $RESPONSE | cut -d'(' -f2 | cut -d')' -f1`
CHARVAL=`echo $RESPONSE | cut -d' ' --fields=3-5`
UPTIME=`echo "scale=0; $VALUE / 8640000" | bc`
echo $UPTIME
echo $UPTIME
echo $CHARVAL
echo $2


The entry in my template file looks like this:
