[mrtg] Re: Bea Weblogic monitoring?

[Britt Tabor]

Pavleck,

	I know that the OIDs will return a large string of numbers but you
should still be able to refer to their explicit OID and have the value
returned. example:

I monitor pagefile usage and the explicit OID for that is:
1.3.6.1.4.1.311.1.1.3.1.1.6.1.3.0

If I run a get on this a get a value (integer 3), if I do a snmpwalk on:
1.3.6.1.4.1.311.1.1.3.1.1.6.1.3

it returns:
1.3.6.1.4.1.311.1.1.3.1.1.6.1.3.101.123.104.45.12.140.115.128: integer 3

So even though the OID that shows in a walk is long and doesn't seem correct
or changes you should still be able to GET the explicit OID value.

Try that and let me know how it goes...

There's a whole slew of OIDs that we monitor, things like Heap size,
heap free, connections, etc - the only problem is is that it's not
simple to do - you have to call the OIDs explicitly and they will change
at random times. Something like the IdleThreadCount at
.1.3.6.1.4.1.140.625.180.1.25 will pull back a slew of OIDs with their
values like
.1.3.6.1.4.1.140.625.180.1.25.32.49.54.52.49.51.102.54.56.102.97.57.52.4
8.52.51.97.57.48.57.54.101.52.97.57.55.55.56.51.52.48.54.102 , etc. That
we add up to graph. But seeing as Weblogic uses a nonstandard SNMP
wrapper (You have to enable NoMib2) and we have it on a non-standard
port, there aren't a lot of tools I can use to script something logical.
I was hoping someone would have an answer out there, but it looks like
no one really does!

I use weblogic and MRTG but don't use MRTG to monitor WL. I didn't
realize that they had SNMP hooks imbedded in the application. What
exactly are you trying to monitor???

Is anybody out there monitoring BEA WebLogic server with MRTG? I'd like
to find out how you're doing it - as it's a pain in the butt to
reconstruct the config everytime the OIDs change (Not to mention all the
additon and what not).
