[mrtg] Re: Monitoring Exchange 5.5

[Brander, Eric]

You have an extra period (.) after the ampersand (&).  If that is indeed the
case, and not an anomaly in the cutting/pasting/emailing, then that would
cause a problem I think.  HOWEVER, the error message indicates a different
problem I think.  When you used GetIf, did you actually get a value for that
OID?  Have you tried walking from that point on to see if there were any
instance numbers?

Subject: [mrtg] Monitoring Exchange 5.5



I would like to monitor the exchange MTA queues in out enviroment

I tried the template available at http://crc.somix.com/cgi-bin/mib2mrtg.exe#
but was unable to find that OID.

I found the OID .1.3.6.1.4.1.311.1.1.3.1.1.21.1.8 using getif which is the
equivalent of:
.iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.microsoft.software.systems.os.winn
t.performance.exchmtaconnmSExchangeMTA-ConnectionsTable.exchmtaconnmSExchang
eMTA-ConnectionsEntry.exchmtaconnQueueLength

I think this is what I'm looking for. This is what my config looks like:

##Exchange BC4CON01

Target[IPADDRESS_MTA]:
.1.3.6.1.4.1.311.1.1.3.1.1.21.1.8&..1.3.6.1.4.1.311.1.1.3.1.1.21.1.8:COMMUNI

Title[IPADDRESS_MTA]: Exchange BC4CON01 MTA Queue
PageTop[IPADDRESS_MTA]: <H1>Exchange BC4CON01 MTA Queue</H1>

However, I get the following out put when this is run:

SNMP Error: Received SNMP response with error code error status: noSuchName
index 1 (OID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.311.1.1.3.1.1.21.1.8.0) SNMPv1_Session (remote
host: "IPADDRESS_MTA" [IPADDRESS_MTA].161)
I know when I added the counter for 2000 CPU I had to add a 1 to the end of
the OID. I tried that here, but it doesn't work. Please can someone provide
me with a template to do this. Thanks

Brendon
