Subject: [mrtg] getting bogus values from snmp ?? 
Message-ID: <17215.22664.63497.161863@jerusalem.litteratus.org>


	I recently installed mrtg (2.12.2,1) and snmp
(net-snmp-5.2.1.2) under FreeBSD -CURRENT.
	After making what I though were appropriate chamges to the cfg
file, the program runs nicely ...
	... with the exception that I don't believe the traffic numbers
reported.  For one, the in and out values are identical; also they
(or at least the in count) are much lower than reasonable (count
varies between 250 and 1200 bits/sec, but one application alone
reports using ~ 15,000 bits/sec).
	Before I go investigating the snmp side, I'd like to know I've
got mrtg behaving correctly.  I've read the comments in the config
file and searched the FAG; I've also Googled what seem to be the
most interesting bits.  My config file (minus comment lines) is
appended as it a sample entry when run with logging and debug=snpo.
	Help - please!

Subject: [mrtg] Interpreting MRTG data log files
Message-ID: <s3418d84.063@GAOGWIA1.GAO.GOV>

Hello,
   I have MRTG monitoring a network switch.  I would like to take data from one of the interfaces from this switch (e.g. please see MRTG log file below from a specific interface) and import it into Opnet IT Guru.  
  However, I realize that mrtg runs continuously (24 hours x 7 days a week).  My boss would only like to view data from this interface during normal  core business hours (e.g. M-Fri from 6:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.).   Is there any way I can look at the log file below  that is created by MRTG  and extract information that pertains  to the specific hours of the day (e.g. 6 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. )?    In addition, could someone please be kind enough to explain what each column of data represents within the log file so that I can explain it to my boss?  Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

                Wes   


Below is raw MRTG data coming out of one of the network interfaces on a switch in the network:

1128382502 2294816997 1490019116    <- It appears that the first column only has three columns.  Can someone please tell me what each column represents
1128382502 3810 6902 3810 6902          <-From this point on, there are four columns...Please advise (e.g. is the information in seconds?)

Subject: [mrtg] Two questions about MRTG
Message-ID: <8ee7548c0510031800t6f69cbdbq3da86eb4902ef38@mail.gmail.com>

MRTG is very very great! Ican feel it's power function, although I just
touch it recently.
Now I have two questions about MRTG and this mail list.

First is about this Mail list.
Does anybody know how to search previous articles. As you know, I think
there maybe has other people asked same question and somebody had resolved
it when I try to put my question on this mail list. I try to search article,
but I couldn't find any place I can search previous.

The second is about MRTG configuration
My switch has 24 ports, port 2-6 belong to Vlan2 and other port belong to
VLAN1. Use cfgmaker, I can create a cfg file that monitor traffic on each
port. But know I want to new cfg file that summarize VLAN2 traffic on
picture. It means I need to summarize Port 2-6 traffic to one objective. I
try port2+port3+port4+port5+port6:public at myswitch, but I doesn't work at
all.

Anybody knows how to resolve it?

Thanks

Subject: [mrtg] Vlan Issues with 6509 Switches
Message-ID: <LFEOLBMGJNNDNAIAFBJGMEEFKIAA.martinr@hotkey.net.au>

Peeps,

We have 2 diff styles of 6509 Cisco switches in use and
have been having issues enabling 64 bit counters.

2 machines work perfect with this cfgmaker options.

./cfgmaker --snmp-options=:::::2 public at 192.168.1.1 -o help.cfg

we get these responses on some of the interfaces

--base: snmpget public at 192.168.1.1:::::2:v4only for ifHighSpeed.208 -> 0
Mb/s
--base: snmpget public at 192.168.1.1:::::2:v4only for ifHCInOctets.208 ->
--base: check for HighspeedCounters failed ... Dropping back to V1

and then on the working ones

--base: snmpget wSeW-GC4 at 192.168.227.131:::::2:v4only for ifHighSpeed.171 ->
0 Mb/s
--base: snmpget wSeW-GC4 at 192.168.227.131:::::2:v4only for
ifHCInOctets.171 -> 5258407777344
--base: check for HighspeedCounters failed ... Dropping back to V1

This seems very releated to what its called an unrouted Vlan ?

Has anyone seen this or any experience with this on 6509 and can help me ?

Thanks
Martin

Is this anything like a HP9000?

I've been graphing them here and it works quite well.

For example, my root free (not used) space is
1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.1.2.2.1.5.1073741827.6, and the total size is
1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.3.1.2.2.1.4.1073741827.6

It was just trial and error on my part finding out which was which,
although I'm sure there's a better way.

Subject: [mrtg] cfgmaker for host information, rather than network information
Message-ID: <20176361.1128416374072.JavaMail.www@wwinf3102>

Hi all,
cfgmaker that comes with the mrtg distribution is pretty neat in that it snifs out all the network and host information data.
Has anyone developed other cfgmakers, to sniff out other MIB data from hosts ?
Perhaps a win2000cfgmaker, or hpunixcfgmaker, which can be fired off at windows or unix boxes and do a snmpwalk to find which metrics are available and present them graphically.....
Sounds like a good student project.......

Message-ID: <F351B61A81F4F54F92740EA8B510C2B10270A9F0@ESGDASMA5VX0014.ib.gedas.vwg>

Hi all,
 
I installed a new server with Debian Sarge, mrtg 2.12.2 and rrdtool 1.2.10.
The mrtg works fine but not the threshold checking:
 
xarxa at noc2:~/utils/mrtg/cfg$ mrtg mrtg.cfg
WARNING: can't do threshold checking for target
gedab-mac3_-hssi5-0.17_traffic(i) -- No valid current data
WARNING: can't do threshold checking for target
gedab-mac3_-hssi5-0.17_traffic(o) -- No valid current data
 
Running the mrtg in debug mode:
 
xarxa at noc2:~/utils/mrtg/cfg$ mrtg --debug="log" mrtg.cfg
--log: Called:

It seems that the mrtg update the rrdtool database with
1128418933:913273041:3596887415 but when fetch the database to do threshold
checking obtain the values NaN/NaN for the same timestamp.
How can i correct it?
 
Running the same mrtg.cfg without rrdtool, with the log format, the
threshold checking works fine.
 
Best regards,
 
Carlos

That's what host-templates are for.

For example, here is my host-template for dos (Works on dos-NT,dos-2000

fairly easily...

Right, because the roll-over calculations are nearly impossible.

Use rrdtool as your back-end, and router2.cgi as your front-end.  In
each interface, add a tag like:
Target[router.port2]: 2:router at reallyhardcommunitystring
routers.cgi*Graph[router.port2]: router.vlan2
!
Target[router.port3]: 3:router at reallyhardcommunitystring
routers.cgi*Graph[router.port3]: router.vlan2
Then, define the characteristics of the summary graph:

routers.cgi*GraphStyle[router.vlan2]: stack

rotuers.cgi will display your summary stats for you. 

You might be able to generate an if-template to add those tags for you.
See if  $if_vlan_id has the information you need to let cfgmaker build
everything for you.

Message-ID: <000e01c5c915$ae1e6190$32c8840a@NETWORK.QVSD.ORG>

I'm trying to use MRTG to measure ATM traffic on Marconi equipment. Can
anyone give me some pointers as to where I might find suggestions as to how
to accomplish this?

Using the "standard" config, nothing gets measured on these ports; probably
because the traffic is not comprised of Ethernet packets.

Searched the web and so far turned up nothing I could understand or use.

Any help would be greatly appreciated...

Thanks in advance...

Hi all,

Are there any collections of host-templates anywhere for MRTG ?

I have one that works for windows2000 (tahnks to this list), but I am not confident with the memory stats yet.

I'm struggling with anything similar for HP Unix system I am trying to monitor.
I would like to monitor multiple CPU, memory, users/processes, disk volumes etc.

Any suggestions?
Many thanks

Message-ID: <8ee7548c0510060732l9336526i7dc4a92d4bfcffc7@mail.gmail.com>

Hi, all
Does anybody know how to make mrtg running like really service. I mean you
can use command "service mrtg start" and "service mrtg stop" to start and
stop mrtg. Now, I just use a script to run bunch of mrtg daemon at one time.
But if I want to restart, I have to stop them one by one manually, it's so
annony, especially when I test them !! :(

Hi !

I created a batch file with the mrtg startup parameters and
"runasdemon=yes".
Then I installed it as service with "firedeamon".

But it wasn't a great succes, because when i stopped the service it
didn't kill the perl process :S Now i solved it just by using task
manager and running it every 5 minutes.
So it's not a service or deamon anymore.

Hi, all
Does anybody know how to make mrtg running like really service. I mean
you can use command "service mrtg start" and "service mrtg stop" to
start and stop mrtg. Now, I just use a script to run bunch of mrtg
daemon at one time.
But if I want to restart, I have to stop them one by one manually, it's
so annony, especially when I test them !! :(

All the Unix people go on about Cron.
I have just moved to a new Win2003 box, and want MRTG to start 
automatically without a user sign on.
So I found Cron for windows (www.kalab.com) and installed the Service 
version
Configure the Cron.tab file to tell it to start MRTG avery 5 mins (do NOT 
set the .cfg to RunAsDemon) and it all works, and picks up changes as you 
make them.

sure. it's entirely possible to do something like this. i can whip up a
quick shell script for you to do that.

sounds like you're running a red hat/fedora style machine. if you're
not, this script is probably not going to work.

apparently the windows guys all think you're running windows *sigh*

here's the script:



#!/bin/bash

. /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions

# Check that networking is up. It's not going to work otherwise.
[ "${NETWORKING}" = "no" ] && exit 0

# Needs a valid configuration file.
CONFIGFILE=/etc/mrtg/mrtg.cfg
DAEMON_PROG=/usr/bin/mrtg
RUNAS=root
PROG="mrtg"

[ -f $CONFIGFILE ] || exit 0

RETVAL=0

case "$1" in
   start)
      echo -n $"Starting $PROG: "
      daemon --user $RUNAS env LANG=C $DAEMON_PROG $CONFIGFILE
      RETVAL=$?
      [ $RETVAL -eq 0 ] && touch /var/lock/subsys/$PROG
      echo
      ;;
   stop)
      echo -n $"Shutting down $PROG: "
      killproc $PROG
      RETVAL=$?
      [ $RETVAL -eq 0 ] && rm -f /var/lock/subsys/$PROG
      echo
      ;;
   restart|reload)
      $0 stop
      $0 start
      RETVAL=$?
      ;;
   condrestart)
      if [ -f /var/lock/subsys/$PROG ]; then
         $0 stop
         $0 start
      fi
      RETVAL=$?
      ;;
   status)
      status $PROG
      RETVAL=$?
      ;;
   *)
      echo $"Usage: $0 {start|stop|restart|reload|condrestart|status}"
      exit 1
esac

exit $RETVAL



enjoy, hope this does the trick for you.

assuming you are RHL user:

man killall

it is included in psmisc package.

oh yeah, you have to put that script in /etc/init.d -- i called it 
something like mrtg-daemon

then you can do:

service mrtg-daemon (start|stop|restart) etc.

if you want it to start at boot time add symbolic links to /etc/rcX.d 
where X is the runlevel into which you boot your machine. the symbolic 
links have the format:  SXXmrtg-daemon where XX is the order of 
precedence for this daemon. you most definitely want it after SXXnetwork 
... I'd run it as S98mrtg-daemon (but that's just me).

you'll also want to add symlinks K02mrtg-daemon to /etc/rc0.d and 
/etc/rc6.d (so mrtg gets killed when you reboot/halt the machine).

enjoy.

It is much versatile method but on RHL you can simply use:

chkconfig --add mrtg-daemon

you can customize runlevel and precedence by putting a comment 
line into 'mrtg-daemon' script like:
# chkconfig: 2345 75 25

man chkconfig

Looks like lack of Target[minutes] in your config file - one set in the
mrtg-rrd's @config_files of course. Or if you have directory with .cfg
files in @config_files - check if you have doubled target entries
somewhere in it, then remove redundant ones.

Or merge all cfg's in one large file - mrtg-rrd won't mind double
targets from one config file, IIRC it will just use first from the top.

Hi,
After much investigation, I figured out that
my changes in mrtg-rrd.cgi were not correct.
Thanks a lot.

I have another question though. mrtg-rrd averages out
all the results over time. Can I retrieve the results of
given day from database. What I mean to say, can
see the complete graph on day in past week.

I need to do some performance analysis and I was thinking
of using mrtg-rrd as my graphing tool. But I need to
preserve this data for future comparision. I was wondering
if mrtg-rrd can do that. Or else I will have to preserve
my data and use some another graphing (gnuplot) tool which can
generate data from given set. If I can retrieve a set of data set
in past as it is I would love to go with mrtg-rrd.

Thanks for all the help.
Regards,
Manish

Anyone got mrtg-rrd.cgi running with multiple .cfg files? I tried to set
path to entire directory in @config_files, but mrtg-rrd.cgi returns
"Error: Undefined statistics".

There aren't any duplicate targets, everything seems right. Merging all
files into big one resolves problem, but it's slow a bit - .cfg file has ~2
MB. I guess plenty of smaller files could speed up things.

This works me for without any problem. But I dont agree with you that 
having different
config files will really enhance performance. The targets from different 
configuration
files are accumulated in single hash and then processed. So it hardly 
makes any difference
if they are in single file or multiple files, except the managing a 
single huge config file
will be tedious.

Correct me if I have missed anyting.

So it's just problem with large number of targets.

That sucks then. I saw somewhere that 14all don't like large config
files and using several smaller ones help - so I assumed (wrongly, as I
see) that it helps with mrtg-rrd too.

Thanks for help

Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.33.0510070855390.8748-100000@www.abbotts.org>


Maybe I am thinking of this the wrong way but I have setup some unscaled graphs in MRTG using:
MaxBytes:1000000000
So that I can get a picture of how much of the pipe we are filling up on our 100mega bit switch.  I get a good graph, showing that I am filling about half, 53.2Mb/s but then the percentage behind the Max is (6.7%)  Where is that number coming from?  Shouldn't it be 53%?  Is there some additional setting I need to change or am I just not reading it right?

8 bits = 1 Byte
100Megabits = 12,500,000 Bytes
Adjust MaxBytes accordingly.
You may want the Option "bits" too

MRTG polls for octets sent and received. 1 octet = 1 byte = 8 bits.
The percentage calculated by MRTG is based on the MaxBytes value in your cfg file.
To get the right percentage the Maxbytes value should be set to the maximum number of octets that can be sent or received on a specific port. If you know the maximum bit rate of a port devide by 8 and you get the right value for Maxbytes.
Usually cfgmaker will take care of this.

Hth,

Jan.

OK, the complication there is that this document goes to managers who have just begun to grasp the concept that we have a 100Mb switch.  :-) If I change the MaxBytes to 12500000 that will change the number at the top of the graph and though it will be technically correct, not as easy for <ahem> some people with a limited grasp to understand.  Is there any way I can get a 100 at the top with the numbers correct at the bottom?

Thanks for the reply!

I am using getlog.pl on windows to graph performance counters. On a
couple of counters I would like to multiply them to get whole number.
Is it possible to multiply the following line of a config file by say
100 to get whole numbers that MRTG can graph or am I looking at setting
up rrdtools?

Target[test]: `perl c:\mrtg\bin\getlog.pl c:\perflogs\log.csv 
"\\MACHINENAME\Counter"` * 100

... or variants has always worked for me for other types of targets

I think I remember seeing somewhere a config option that allows you to 
manipulate data such as you require ... you might want to consult the 
config file documentation as I do not recall the proper syntax.

Good luck,

Message-ID: <5706AD7376228E458E486975B216BC0702927A33@HQ-MBX-02.ba.ad.ssa.gov>

I'm having trouble understanding a couple of things.  Here is a description
of my situation:

Mrtg 2.10.15 running on Sun V440 on Solaris 8 using rrdtool 1.0.50

15 instances of mrtg are running from cron once a minute at a 15 minute
interval. So there is an instance of mrtg starting every minute. 

Total number of targets almost 60,000

**Serious** I/O problems, which we are working on to resolve by adding
hardware, but in the meantime management wants us to try to "make it work"
on the 2 striped disks we have.

I'm trying to figure out whether each instance is completing within its 15
minutes of allotted time. 

Here are my observations/questions:

Two lockfiles are created, $lockfile and $templock. $templock disappears
early on--haven't figure out when exactly, but by the time the SNMP metrics
are being collected it seems to be gone.  Is this by design? $lockfile
disappears when "Remove lock files" shows up in log (with --debug=base) --
once the entire run has completed.

Once $templock disappears, it seems another instance of mrtg can start up
even though $lockfile is still hanging around.

I've gotten no errors from cron indicating that mrtg could not start up at
any time it was supposed to start though frequently $lockfile persists right
up until the next run and I suspect the previous run didn't complete.

How can I tell if my runs are completing in within 15 minutes? What is going
on here?

Have you tried running your mrtg as daemon? In case of not completed
data gathering it just throws "data collection did not complete within
interval" into the logs and starts collecting from the beginning - and
everything is clear.

Greetings,

I  use  mrtg to get stats from Cisco 3560 switch. All outgoing traffic
from  customers  shows on graphs as incoming (this is correct, because
for  switch  this traffic _incoming_) but customers misunderstand this
graphs.

So  how  can  i  interchange  IN and OUT values to show real bandwidth
graphs for customers?

Thank you!

Hello listmembers!
 

Ok, Windows is really and changes the SNMP oid fort the cpus with every
newly added printer. But in the moment I have a completely strange
issue: My Windows 2003 Servers has to interfaces installed and active:
one for the internal LAN, the other one is connected to my DSL modem. On
the LAN interface SNMP works as I want it to do: I see incoming and
outgoing traffic. On my DSL interface it's working different, I only see
incoming traffic. Ok, that might be problem with the used nic I thought
so I replaced it. First it was an old HP Netserver NIC based on an Intel
Chip, Now it's an Intel(R)-PRO/100+-Management-Adapter, but the problem
is still the same.

 

Is there anybody out there how has an idea about my issue?

 

 

Greetings from sunny Germany

Norbert

Gday again,

After fixing my rrdtool perl issue and upgrading successfully,
I am starting to re-run my mrtg scripts and have found an
issue it seems with Thresholds.

WARNING: can't do threshold checking for target localhost.eth0(i) -- No
valid current data
WARNING: can't do threshold checking for target localhost.disk1(i) -- No
valid current data
WARNING: can't do threshold checking for target localhost.disk2(i) -- No
valid current data
WARNING: can't do threshold checking for target localhost.load1(i) -- No
valid current data

Looking at the data and the graphs produced there is actual values returned
no problem
with these scripts.

Just wondered if anyone had stumbled onto this and solved it.

The .cfg files ran perfectly under mrtg 2.12.2 and rrdtool 1.0.45.

Thanks again
Martin

Subject: [mrtg] IN and OUT


Greetings,

I  use  mrtg to get stats from Cisco 3560 switch. All outgoing traffic from  customers  shows on graphs as incoming (this is correct, because for  switch  this traffic _incoming_) but customers misunderstand this graphs.

So  how  can  i  interchange  IN and OUT values to show real bandwidth graphs for customers?

Thank you!

Hi

Is it possible to consolidate all serial port(s) utilisation & show
one consolidated graph instead of individual grpahs for each serial
port?

Thanks in advance.

Wow, I thought I was the only person running MRTG on a big, 
overpriced, slow Sun box these days. ;) I poll 25,060 two 
variable targets on a five minute interval. I do this on top 
of Solaris 8 on V440 hardware (4 procs, 8 gigs) but I store all 
the RRD files on EMC dasd. Prior to moving the WorkDir to the 
EMC my system was falling over because it was so always really 
I/O bound. I know EMC is a bitter, expensive, pill to swallow, 
but without it, the processing horsepower of a V440 pretty 
much goes to waste (at least in my case it does).

Your 15 config files must be gargantuan! I spread out my 25,000
targets among 80 MRTG invocations running in daemon mode.

If you can't swing the dollars for an EMC frame, you might want
to look into a RAM filesystem - if the V440 can accomodate 
enough RAM that would allow you to put your WorkDir on a RAM 
filesystem that would get around the disk IO issues you have,
but of course then you have volatility issues in the event of
a crash. :(

I'm not sure what $templock is, but you might want to turn
on logging via the...
--logging mrtg.log
...command line directive, but I don't know if that command 
option works outside of daemon mode. I'm thinking that 
debugging the base set will not tell you whether or not
you're meeting the time limits.

If --logging doesn't tell you anything in cron mode, try 
running one of your 15 config files in Daemon mode by putting 
RunAsDaemon:Yes at the top, and then turn on logging via the 
command line. I am certain that an 'interval exceeded' message
will appear in the log file if the poll cycle takes too 
long - I've seen it happen in my own stuff in the past.

Good luck.

Yes this is possible
Look for Multi Target Syntax on http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/mrtg/mrtg-reference.html

Target[myrouter]: 2:public at wellfleetA + 1:public at wellfleetA

Target[myrouter]: 1.3.6.1.4.1.999.1&1.3.6.1.4.1.999.2:public at mydevice /

I've experienced the same thing - with a 30 second default timeout, if
any large switch is down, the whole instance times out.  My general
corrective is to try to change the timeout to 3 seconds, but that
doesn't always solve the issue either.

I've considered ripping the whole polling engine out and re-writing it
to use snmpbulk-get.  But I've long thought that the locking mechanism
wasn't working correctly, and your experience seems to bear that out.

My environment is a single instance with about 5000 targets, run from
cron every 5 minutes.  Assuming everything is up, it runs in about 1.5
minutes.  When a router somewhere goes down, it often just hangs.  The
dead host detection doesn't seem to function - I think that's a fork
problem (where a target in one fork detects a dead target, but the other
forks don't realize it and continue to try to poll it).

This is easy. All you have to do to fix this is change your target 
specifier a little bit:

Change:

Target[blah]: 1:public at foo:

to read:

Target[blah]: -1:public at foo:

Notice the only change is a - sign in front of the target specifier. 
That tells mrtg to swap the incoming/outgoing rate structure.

cheers.

Sure. Depends on the device itself, but if I were to do something like
that on my Cisco 2511 (which has two sync serial ports) it would look
something like this:

Target[c2500_totserial]: #Se0:public at c2500: + #Se1:public at c2500:

(that of course assumes that you will be indexing the interfaces by name
[--ifref=name in cfgmaker]).

I could do the same thing with the 8 Async serial ports if I had IP
running on them (which I do not --- still searching for an OID which
contians the relevant raw byte counters to no avail, but I digress):

Target[c2500_totasync]: #As1:public at c2500: + #As2:public at c2500: +
#As3:public at c2500: + #As4:public at c2500: + #As5:public at c2500: +
#As6:public at c2500: + #As7:public at c2500: + #As8:public at c2500:

Be sure you aggregate MaxBytes[] for that particular interface as well.

Your device may have an OID for aggregate usage, as well. You might want
to look through the vendor-supplied MIB.

Hope this gets you pointed in the right direction.

Hi folks,
I am an IT Specialist working in IBM Sri Lanka.

I am currently doing a research to find out the sensitivity of Database 
and Web traffic to iSCSI traffic in a LAN environment. 

I do need a traffic analysis and graphing tool to peep through the TCP 
traffic behavior on my Cisco switch.

I am planning to use MRTG+RRD tool for this purpose.

The documentation I went through clearly indicates that MRTG along can 
only give me bandwidth utilization statistics in 5 minutes intervals and 
also Florin's "MRTG Implementation Manual" also indicates that even with 
RRD I can obtain only that granularity.

But some of my collegues were claiming that MRTG+RRD can allow me to do 
the traffic analysis with one second intervals.

Therefore I thought of resolving this with the person who wrote the tools. 


Can any one of you let me know whether the combination of the above tools 
allow me to capture and graph traffic statistics at one second intervals. 

As per Toby it required hacking the MRTG code. Have anyone of you done 
this?

Very much appreciate your feedback. Thanks.


Good Luck!

RRDtool, the back-end database piece of MRTG, can take
data as frequently as one sample per second. However, MRTG,
being a front-end data collection mechanism for RRDtool is 
limited to no faster than a five minute poll cycle.
Occasionally I have had the need to poll certain OIDs at
five or ten second intervals. To do this, I wrote a quick
perl script that makes the SNMP call via the SNMP_util module
and then uses the RRDs shared lib to load the RRD files 
with the data. After some number of poll cycles, I use Dave
Plonk's RRGrapher (http://net.doit.wisc.edu/~plonka/RRGrapher/)
utility to plot the data from the RRD files that the perl
script populated.

Here is an example of the perl script:


/*BEING PERL SCRIPT*/
#!/bin/perl -w
#
#
use strict;

use lib "/opt/mrtg/lib/mrtg2/ /opt/rrdtl/lib/perl";

use SNMP_util;
use RRDs;

my ($rrdfile,$host,$community,$router,$gauge1,$counter1,$counter2,
        $counter3);

my $ipgwBbStFctws = ".1.3.6.1.4.1.303.3.3.7.3.1.3.30.0";
my $ipgwEntStPktsDelays = ".1.3.6.1.4.1.303.3.3.7.3.1.1.8.0";
my $ipgwBbStSgwBytesSent = ".1.3.6.1.4.1.303.3.3.7.3.1.3.6.0";
my $ipgwBbStSgwPkts = ".1.3.6.1.4.1.303.3.3.7.3.1.3.7.0";

$community = "public";
$router = "testrouter";

while (1) {

  $rrdfile = "/opt/EJnrrdtl/rrd/testrouter.rrd";
  $host = join "@", $community, $router;
  ($gauge1) = &snmpget("$host",$ipgwBbStFctws);
  ($counter1) = &snmpget("$host",$ipgwEntStPktsDelays);
  ($counter2) = &snmpget("$host",$ipgwBbStSgwBytesSent);
  ($counter3) = &snmpget("$host",$ipgwBbStSgwPkts);
  print "$gauge1 $counter1 $counter2 $counter3\n";
  RRDs::update("$rrdfile","N:$gauge1:$counter1:$counter2:$counter3");
  sleep(10);
}
/*END PERL SCRIPT*/


This particular script polls the data, then sleeps for ten
seconds, then loops back through. You'll need to create the
RRD file first using the 'rrdtool create' command.

This method of short-cycle data collection works pretty well, 
but is obviously not scalable or manageable past a few variables.

Actually, we have Hitachi DASD readily available -- an advantage to working
in a large organization like the US federal government :-) -- and moved all
60,000 files over there.  We are running over 4 load-balancing fiber
channels and the I/O hurdle has now been overcome.  But I'm still wondering
why $templock disappears.

I've done all the things you suggest below (turn on debugging, run in daemon
mode, etc.) and the answer to the $templock issue still eludes me.  But
since the I/O problem has been resolved, I know the runs are completing in
time.

I suppose I don't have a problem "per se" anymore, but if Tobi or anyone
else can shed light on the $templock thing I'd be interested to hear it.

Wow, I thought I was the only person running MRTG on a big, overpriced, slow
Sun box these days. ;) I poll 25,060 two variable targets on a five minute
interval. I do this on top of Solaris 8 on V440 hardware (4 procs, 8 gigs)
but I store all the RRD files on EMC dasd. Prior to moving the WorkDir to
the EMC my system was falling over because it was so always really I/O
bound. I know EMC is a bitter, expensive, pill to swallow, but without it,
the processing horsepower of a V440 pretty much goes to waste (at least in
my case it does).

Your 15 config files must be gargantuan! I spread out my 25,000 targets
among 80 MRTG invocations running in daemon mode.

If you can't swing the dollars for an EMC frame, you might want to look into
a RAM filesystem - if the V440 can accomodate enough RAM that would allow
you to put your WorkDir on a RAM filesystem that would get around the disk
IO issues you have, but of course then you have volatility issues in the
event of a crash. :(

I'm not sure what $templock is, but you might want to turn on logging via
the...
--logging mrtg.log
...command line directive, but I don't know if that command option works
outside of daemon mode. I'm thinking that debugging the base set will not
tell you whether or not you're meeting the time limits.

If --logging doesn't tell you anything in cron mode, try running one of your
15 config files in Daemon mode by putting RunAsDaemon:Yes at the top, and
then turn on logging via the command line. I am certain that an 'interval
exceeded' message will appear in the log file if the poll cycle takes too
long - I've seen it happen in my own stuff in the past.

Good luck.

Although what you're asking to do isn't so difficult, polling traffic 
once per second could cause the SNMP agent on your switch to utilize far 
more CPU time than you anticipate, thereby decreasing overall switch 
bandwith and switching speed. So, your results may very well not be 
accurate if you poll them so frequently. But, if you have a beefy enough 
switch, like a 6509, it may be able to handle the extra load without 
complaining too much.

good luck.

It *does* show your total bandwidth used, as measured in bits/second (a
RATE based measurement). I'm assuming you want gigabytes/month though,
which seems to be what a lot of hosting companies are using. MRTG doesn't
display this a cumulative total directly (you can set the graphs to show
bytes/second though instead of bits/second), but you can use the php
script "MRTG Total Traffic Generator" from "Bj?rn Patrick Swift" that will
compute the gigabyte useage values over a defined period of time for you.

Try http://bjorn.swift.is/traffic/

It's a PHP script to calculate totals from MRTG log files.

Hi folks,
I am carrying out a research in finding out the sensitivity of regular 
traffic to iSCSI traffic in a LAN environment. This requires analysis of 
the traffic profiles of different TCP traffic types and their efffects on 
the queueing. 

I am looking for a tool which can graph different traffic types flowing 
off the same Switch port. Currently I am using the SPAN port with 
Ethereal, but it has some issues. 

Does any one of you know of a tool for out-of-band (should not affect the 
traffic flowing over the monitored port) monitoring of different TCP 
traffic over a LAN switch, preferably using SNMP counters. I want one 
second granularity.

I have a Cisco 2970 L3 switch and it does not support NetFlow. 

Appreciate your adivise. Thanks.

Good Luck!

Message-ID: <7736DD1D5D6EDD4081B590872B56DCCC0C29F6F7@gvlexch01.gvl.is.l-3com.com>

I am running MRTG with RRDTool on a Windows 2000 box.  I got MRTG set up and
[apparently] working properly with Rateup.  Then I switched to RRDTool and
according to the file modified times, I'm updating the databases.  However,
when I got 14all to produce webpages I got a red box with "Error:  Cannot
Create Graph" where each of my graphs should be.  Can anyone help?
 
 
Also, I'm monitoring the CPU, memory (virtual, physical, HDD), and data rate
(ethernet comms usage) of the server with MRTG.  Memory has an example and
seems to work, though it apparently baselines at 0, rather than actual %
used (but I can see a bump in my graph so something's getting monitored)
and, of course, the ethernet communications are being monitored, apprarently
properly.  Memory is always a flatline 0, however.  I'm getting these
results with MRTG with rate-up, no additions (I set up a second box to try
to troubleshoot where my errors are with the first one).  Can anyone provide
me some insight as to why (how do I need to set up my config file?) and how
to get the info I actually want (% mem used and % CPU use)?
 
Thank you,

Gil-
I cannot advise you directly about the ESR-6000; however the following
describes our experience with the ASX-200bx, TNX-210, 
and ASX-4000 ATM switches from Marconi:

================================================


Here is some of what you need to know on the Marconi side: 

	(XXXX is an ASX-200bx ATM switch) 
	You need to be aware that the OID changes based on the version of
Marconi's FT software you are using...
	OIDs (for FT 7.1):
			.1.3.6.1.4.1.326.2.2.2.1.4.1.1.8.port.path.circuit
- # of cells
			.1.3.6.1.4.1.326.2.2.2.1.4.4.1.5.port.path.circuit
- # of cells
	Multiply # of cells by 48 to get bytes [53 byte cells - header]

Target[XXXX]: .1.3.6.1.4.1.326.2.2.2.1.4.1.1.8.0.0.114 & 
	.1.3.6.1.4.1.326.2.2.2.1.4.4.1.5.0.0.114:community at XXXX::::2*48

	Depending on how your VC is built, numbering may also change any
time it is re-created...

I have also found it necessary to fiddle with the code to get cfgmaker to
work correctly for me on these devices. I can share the mods if you are
interested.

I'm trying to use MRTG to measure ATM traffic on Marconi equipment. Can
anyone give me some pointers as to where I might find suggestions as to how
to accomplish this?

Using the "standard" config, nothing gets measured on these ports; probably
because the traffic is not comprised of Ethernet packets.

Searched the web and so far turned up nothing I could understand or use.

Any help would be greatly appreciated...

Thanks in advance...

Gday again,

Im just wondering now if anyone has rrdtool 1.2.11 and mrtg 2.12.2 and
thresholds actually working ?




After fixing my rrdtool perl issue and upgrading successfully,
I am starting to re-run my mrtg scripts and have found an
issue it seems with Thresholds.

WARNING: can't do threshold checking for target localhost.eth0(i) -- No
valid current data
WARNING: can't do threshold checking for target localhost.disk1(i) -- No
valid current data
WARNING: can't do threshold checking for target localhost.disk2(i) -- No
valid current data
WARNING: can't do threshold checking for target localhost.load1(i) -- No
valid current data

Looking at the data and the graphs produced there is actual values returned
no problem
with these scripts.

Just wondered if anyone had stumbled onto this and solved it.

The .cfg files ran perfectly under mrtg 2.12.2 and rrdtool 1.0.45.

Thanks again
Martin

Ti,

mrtg logs rates.  What you're plotting is the number of errors *PER
SECOND* - I'd hope that would be zero!  

Try using:  
Options[s1_0]:perminute  

or tou may like to use the perhour option instead.

I don't try to log errors, there's not enough of them to log unless
you've got a really bad line.

When I tried 14all in my Windoze environment I had to do some extensive 
playing with the path formats. Do you put in drive letters, leading 
slashes, and forward or backslashes. Can't remember the correct variation, 
and not sure if it was the same in each instance.
I ended up changing to Routers2.cgi which I now think is much better

The obvious fault there, is are you using the gauge option? If not, you're 
measuring the rate of change of memory, which will be low.

When I tried 14all in my Windoze environment I had to do some extensive 
playing with the path formats. Do you put in drive letters, leading 
slashes, and forward or backslashes. Can't remember the correct variation, 
and not sure if it was the same in each instance.
I ended up changing to Routers2.cgi which I now think is much better

2970 is a L2 switch.  None of the 35xx or 375x line support netflow with
IOS 12.2SE - a real bummer, since the 3550 used to support it...

But netflow will not give you 1-second granularity - it only reports
when the flow ends.  So a sniffer is really your best tool.  If you are
having trouble with SPAN, then get a splitter from CenturyTap.  But
nothing else will give you anything like the granularity you are looking
for.  You might have to go back and do a manual analysis of the trace
(Sniffer Pro from Network Associates does a better job of back-end
analysis than Ethereal, but the cost/benefit ratio might not be
there)...

Are you talking about a channelized T1 like a bank of PRIs or DS0s for a 
dial up bank or a full T1 circuit that is not "turned up" all the way?

The latter should be the same a monitoring a full 24 channel T1, just 
adjust MaxBytes to match your throughput.

If configured properly, the former will be just as easy. Each channel 
will be its own interface in the rotuer/access server, and the config 
maker tool will detect them all.

Basically, do a "show interface" on your (cisco) router, each interface 
listed is individually monitorable.

It configs just like any other router, I have multiple tasman models and did
nothing other than run cfgmaker against it. It found every interface bundle
I had built. It was also nice and returned information for every physical
interface as well.

If you have specific questions, let me know, I would be more than happy to
help.

Natalie,
I see a potential problem:

the 'bandwidth 1024' statement in your interface config tells me that 
your provider is selling your a T1 throttled to 1024 kilobit/sec.

The 'bandwidth' statement instructs the interface not to exceed 1024 
kbit/sec, this is good. I'm guessing that your provider has limited the 
number of timeslots (channels) that the circuit uses, but your interface 
is currently configured to use all of them (the default).

You can confirm that with "show service-module serial1"
You'll see a line in the output like:

<SNIP>
Fraction has 24 timeslots (64 Kbits/sec each), Net bandwidth is 1536 
Kbits/sec.
<!SNIP>

The interfaces on each end of the circuit need to match, and I'm 
guessing that your provider has the circuit limited to 16 timeslots. It 
would be worth a call to your provider to confirm this.

16 * 64kbps == 1024 kbps

Adding "service-module t1 timeslots 1-16" would limit your interface to 
16 timeslots and (hopefully) fix your problems.

Also, I didn't see a clock source statement in your interface config. It 
would be a good idea to add one. Your provider is probably providing the 
timing for the circuit (another good thing to confirm) so adding 
"service-module t1 clock source line" to the interface would do it.

Hope that helps,
Andrew Hull

Is there a way to show its real value (0.0 b/s)?

If running in daemon mode:

Interval: 1

in the config file will do this.

 From http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/mrtg/mrtg-reference.html:

Note that unless you are using rrdtool you can not set Interval to less 
than 5 minutes. If you are using rrdtool you can set interval down to 1 
minute. Note though, setting the Interval for an rrdtool/mrtg setup will 
influence the initial creation of the database. If you change the 
interval later, all existing databases will remain at the resolution 
they were initially created with.

The lowest poll interval you can do with MRTG is 5 minutes.
Switch to RRDTool to go lower than than.

in a later post, you list the device as "serial1".  I assume it is not a
built-in DSU, and that you are doing the add-drop function at an
external CSU/DSU.  The Cisco router, in that case, has absolutely no
data to work with.  YOu might be able to grab something from the CSU if
it is SNMP enabled.

But the general case is that bits are sliced across all active channels,
so it's not possible for one timeslot to not work and the T1 continue to
function.

I have implemented several Cisco 1720 routers for our T1 customers. They 
have 2 integrated WIC slots for Cisco WIC-1DSU-T1 cards. Those 
interfaces are named Serial0 and Serial1.

So although the scenario you presented is certainly possible, it is not 
by any means an assumption to make.

Subject: [mrtg] image problem on FreeBSD
Message-ID: <20051013211759.GI4456@mitch.veggiechinese.net>

MRTG 2.12.1 (from ports) on FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE

Worked before... if I go to:

http://foo.example.com/cgi-bin/14all-1.1.cgi?dir=traffic/

I can see the images Ok - however, if I go to an individual link, like:

http://foo.example.com/cgi-bin/14all-1.1.cgi?log=somemachine_192.168.0.1

I get an "Error: Cannot create graph" image.

The httpd error log says:

 File does not exist: /usr/local/www/data/usr

(/usr/local/www/data is the DocumentRoot for the virtualhost in Apache;
/usr/local/www/cgi-bin is where the script lives; the MRTG data lives in
/usr/local/var/mrtg/traffic)

The MRTG config has:

WorkDir: /usr/local/var/mrtg
LogDir:  /usr/local/var/mrtg

I realize I haven't given the full configs here yet, but can someone
give me a pointer, or let me know if this rings any obvious bells? I'm
sure it's something really stupid.

Subject: [mrtg] Renaming Label
Message-ID: <20051013212250.AE60937FA98@mxo3.broadbandsupport.net>

Hello

I am trying to find a way to rename the label of the mrtg config file using
cfgmaker.  We have custom applications that looks for a certain name and
until receintly it's been a long manual process.  So instead of cfgmaker
labeling the target[name] I want it to be target[whatIwant1] type deal.
I've played around with the templates which work great except for this
aspect.  Just wondering if anyone else has came across this and what they
did to resolve it.

Thanks,
Cliff

Does anyone have a sample config for using MRTG to graph an APC 7900

I'm mostly interested in graphing power consumption.

There is an APC template available for download at
mrtg.gvolk.com. Among other things it has % Total
Battery life left, and %Load.

I wrote and tested it with around an APC9606 
management card, so I don't know for sure if it
will work against a 7900.

Looks interesting. In this case, it's a PDU, not a UPS type deal, so not
sure if most of the stuff will be applicable, but might be useful as a
rough guide.

Subject: [mrtg] Threshold Problem with rrdtool 1.2.11 and mrtg 2.12.2
Message-ID: <LFEOLBMGJNNDNAIAFBJGCEMPKKAA.martinr@hotkey.net.au>


Gday again,

Have had another go at this and it seems to work when you add options:
unknaszero.

Around line 1700 in the mrtg script it mentions

            $threshval{$dir} = 0 if not defined $threshval{$dir} and
$$rcfg{'options'}{'unknaszero'}{$router};
            warn "WARNING: can't do threshold checking for target
$router($dir) -- No valid current data\n"
                unless defined $threshval{$dir};
       my $value = $threshval{$dir};

and I added unknaszero to the localhost.eth0 options, but has this fixed the
problem or just
made it ignore the threshold completely ?








Im just wondering now if anyone has rrdtool 1.2.11 and mrtg 2.12.2 and
thresholds actually working ?




After fixing my rrdtool perl issue and upgrading successfully,
I am starting to re-run my mrtg scripts and have found an
issue it seems with Thresholds.

WARNING: can't do threshold checking for target localhost.eth0(i) -- No
valid current data
WARNING: can't do threshold checking for target localhost.disk1(i) -- No
valid current data
WARNING: can't do threshold checking for target localhost.disk2(i) -- No
valid current data
WARNING: can't do threshold checking for target localhost.load1(i) -- No
valid current data

Looking at the data and the graphs produced there is actual values returned
no problem
with these scripts.

Just wondered if anyone had stumbled onto this and solved it.

The .cfg files ran perfectly under mrtg 2.12.2 and rrdtool 1.0.45.

Thanks again
Martin

Hello everybody
I use mrtg to monitor the traffic. It's the lastest version. I run MRTG as
Daemon mode. When I login as root, it works OK, only I need to do is to
change the web files' ownership. Becuase I run in root, so all the file
created by MRTG belong to root.root. but when MRTG try to update the data,
it use MRTG privilege and don't have permission to edit these files.
 So I think I can run MRTG under user mrtg, but I get an error messages, it
told me that that user mrtg didn't have permission to create the temperately
lock in /usr/local/mrtg/bin/mrtg file 1640 line.
I check the /usr/local/mrtg/bin/mrtg file, in 1640 it's like this
 open(LOCK,">$template_lock")*******************
 Anybody can give me an idea?
 Thanks

You want the the 'unkaszero' at the options line in your mrtg config file.
>From http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/mrtg/mrtg-reference.html:

"Log unknown data as zero instead of the default behaviour of repeating the last value seen. Be careful with this, often a flat line in the graph is much more obvious than a line at 0."

When MRTG polls a device, the graph flatlines at the last calculated value. Is there a way to show its real value (0.0 b/s)?

I would check the file and directory permissions of where you have your
config files. MRTG creates a temp file in that same directory when it is
running. Assume you have myconfig.cfg, the file will look something like
myconfig.cfg_l_87659 or some other number. Be sure user mrtg has permissions
on all the files and the directory.

aha. herein lies your problem:

adUnitCpuUtil is a class, where adUnitCurrentCpuUtil is an identifier, 
you probably want something like:

adUnitCpuUtil.adUnitCurrentCpuUtil.0&adUnitCpuUtil.adUnitCurrentCpuUtil.0:public at 192.168.1.1:::::2

as your target. If that doesn't work, try removing the .0 from the end 
of the OID. It also appears as though you're running windows. If you 
have the cygwin tools installed or access to a unix box with the 
net-snmp utils installed, you might want to load that MIB into snmpwalk 
and walk the device's tree. That way, you'd know exactly which OID to probe.

Message-ID: <27ae92160510180538x6f524030vf7e91756b3f06517@mail.gmail.com>

Hello,

I'm running MRTG on a Red Hat system, every 5 minutes through cron.

0,5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,55 * * * * /usr/bin/mrtg /etc/mrtg/mrtg.cfg

If MRTG experiences any errors (like a host is down) it sends an email
to root.  I would prefer those e-mails to go to someone else.  So I
tried this...

0,5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,55 * * * * /usr/bin/mrtg
/etc/mrtg/mrtg.cfg 2>&1 | mail -s "MRTG Report"  someone at domain.com

However, that creates an e-mail EVERY 5 minutes, even if things are
okay.  I am guessing it has something to do with stdout vs stderr. 
Any idea how to structure the cron so I get emails to
someone at domain.com, not root.

Thanks
Shane

Shane,
My solution did not use cron, but it achieves the desired results. I 
used a ".forward" file in the user's home dir that runs MRTG.


[mrtg at tbx mrtg]$ cat .forward
\mrtg  		 # This keeps a copy in the local account also
user at domain.com  # Address to send mail to


Just create your own version in the home dir of the user that is running 
MRTG and that should do it. Permissions should be -rw------- (600).

Disclaimer: It is possible to configure Sendmail so that it ignores this 
file, and the uber-security-minded may prefer it that way.

Check out
http://www.feep.net/sendmail/tutorial/intro/forward.html
for a .forward tutorial; google has many more also.

this just pipes both outputs to /dev/null and a mail will still be 
generated every five minutes, albiet empty.

Add a line before your mrtg cron entry which states:

MAILTO=someuser

then one after which reads:

MAILTO=root

that should do what you're looking for.

Put all your MRTG command lines into a batch file and use Task Scheduler
to run the batch file every 5 minutes.  Stay away from trying to make it
a "service" on Windows - it's more trouble than its worth if you have
access to the Scheduler.

You can purchase FireDaemon for a very low price and use it to add as many configs files as individual services as you like.  It's worth it.

Message-ID: <20051019205234.28377.qmail@web81409.mail.yahoo.com>

Greetings,

Two OIDs that I am monitoring on a Windows system
produce strange looking graphs. Here are the URL's to
the images:

Both are counter-type OIDs from the Microsoft http

I've tried specifying varying sizes using XSize and

be greatly appreciated.

They look fine to me. Are you sure you want connections/second on the 
first graph? The legend says current connections, so I'd think you'd 
want the "gauge" option. Other than that, they seem like decent graphs. 
You mentioned size and such, so I'm guessing you're seeing some odd 
stretching or something? I'm not seeing it.

Since they don't look "strange" to me, describe what you think you 
should be expecting to see and maybe we can figure out from there what's 
wrong.

The OID is an ever-incrementing counter; I was just
sloppy with my target definition. It should acutally
be "connections per minute". 

What concerns me about the graph is the sawtooth
looking pattern. I guess I am expecting a nice, smooth
blue line, which is what I had seen for a while. A
server reboot caused an anamolous spike in the values
for these OIDs. I deleted the mrtg log files for the
targets and waited for the new graphs to be generated,
which is when I spotted the sawtooth graphs.

You can purchase FireDaemon for a very low price and use it to add as
many configs files as individual services as you like.  It's worth it.

Put all your MRTG command lines into a batch file and use Task Scheduler
to run the batch file every 5 minutes. Stay away from trying to make it
a "service" on Windows - it's more trouble than its worth if you have
access to the Scheduler.

Subject: [mrtg] Difference between retrieved values and graphed values
Message-ID: <4358F3E4.9060101@geomath.fr>

Hi,

I'm a bit lost with MRTG graphing Squid http requests values.

I run MRTG to retrieve this target :

Directory[httpreq]: proxy/httpreq
Title[httpreq]: les requetes HTTP du proxy
PageTop[httpreq]: les requetes HTTP du proxy</H1>
PNGTitle[httpreq]: Requetes HTTP Hit
Target[httpreq]: 
cacheHttpHits.0&cacheProtoClientHttpRequests.0:public at proxy1:3401::::2
MaxBytes[httpreq]: 100000
Options[httpreq]: nopercent,growright,pngdate,withzeroes
YLegend[httpreq]: Requetes HTTP
ShortLegend[httpreq]: Req.
LegendI[httpreq]: Hits :
LegendO[httpreq]: Tot. :
Legend1[httpreq]: HTTP Hits
Legend2[httpreq]: HTTP Total
Legend3[httpreq]: HTTP Hits
Legend4[httpreq]: HTTP Total
WithPeak[httpreq]: ymw


Retrieved values for total hits are (5 min interval) : 1725286 / 1727246 
/ 1729983 which is OK.
But these values are graphed as integers between 5.0 and 8.0.

I ran "snmpdelta -Cp 300 -c public -v 2c proxy1:3401 
cacheProtoClientHttpRequests.0" and the printed values are the right deltas.
I also try to put MaxBytes to a higher value (higher than the actual 
retrieved values) but this does not help)


According to my target declaration, I do not understand why I don't get 
the 2000 delta I am supposed to see.

Any ideas about this ?


Thanks,
Ionel

Using these options, you'll get the default of a rate of PER SECOND. Do 
you want the number of requests per second? If you want a rate, you may 
want to try the options PERMINUTE or PERHOUR. Or if you just want to 
know the current total, you could use GAUGE.

Hi all,
 
We're trying to plot the operational status of individual ports on a

Basically, we're drilling into the IfOperHack.XYZ portion - can we
specify to MRTG to monitor mod/port?

Hi,

As Eric says, it displays such low values because MRTG divide the 
retrieved values by 300 (which corresspond to 5 minutes, my MRTG delay) 
so it shows values as persecond values.
You can add perminute or perhour to the option list so MRTG displays 
larger values for a perminute or perhour value.

If you want raw values, add the gauge keyword.
If you want delta values but for a 5minutes delta, you may try to do a 
"* 300" to get a perfiveminute stat.

Message-ID: <27ae92160510240529l3d938093o849344104ee2b51e@mail.gmail.com>

Hello,

I have a router, with 48 interfaces (no VLANs).

Four of those segments will be moving to another building, so I want
to graph the total bandwidth of those four.

Using MRTG, I know you can do addition, but I can't get the syntax
right.  How could I add interfaces 23, 24, 25, 26 together to produce
one graph.  Is that possible?

Here's my code for interface 23...

Hi,

Remove the colon at the and of the Target line. Put a plus after a blank.
The write the target line of the other interface. Do the steps for the other
interfaces.

Subject: [mrtg] Adding four interfaces

Hello,

I have a router, with 48 interfaces (no VLANs).

Four of those segments will be moving to another building, so I want to
graph the total bandwidth of those four.

Using MRTG, I know you can do addition, but I can't get the syntax right.
How could I add interfaces 23, 24, 25, 26 together to produce one graph.  Is
that possible?

Here's my code for interface 23...

Look for Multi Target Syntax in the reference.html. It explains it 
better than I can in an email.

I use my own summary cgi script, which sums final rrd databases on the fly.
It is not perfect, I am not programmer, but it is very useful for me
and maybe for others.

mrtgsum.cgi with DEMO pages is available here:

AFAIK, those people just write their own HTML page.

Not too difficult.

you can use indexmaker on your config file and it will output an 
appropriate index page. man indexmaker -- it's really easy. :)

good luck,

What should I do, if I have an equippment that MRTG doesn't support their 
MIB ???

I do a normal cfgmaker but the .cfg file generated is all remarked as 
comment and the interfases are not showed anyway.

I read some at the web, and an option is doing the .cfg manually, but I 
still wondering to know where I can get the MIB of my equippment ??

Can anybody help me ??

If you use the routers2 frontend, then you can use the *Summary directive to
define summary pages.  Use the 'nodetails' option to get an output like the
one you gave as an example.  The default setup generates a summary page
automatically.

You will need to specify snmp v2 (or snmp v3, if you are using a 2.13
beta).  SNMP v1, which your syntax below is referencing, provides
un-reliable results for all data rates greater than about 120mb/s.

> Target[10-77-18-131_317]: 317:public at 10-77-18-131_317: 
add ::::2 to the target statement for snmp V2.

The only graphed items I am interested in are the Max Round Trip Time in mS and the In: values on the third line.
How can I get rid of the extra entries?
My cfg file looks like this...

Title[target]: target HTTP Latency
MaxBytes[target]: 5000
AbsMax[target]: 10000
Options[target]: gauge
Target[target]: `/bin/http_ping -count 1 http://www.target.com | head -1 | awk '{ print $5; print 0 }'`
PageTop[target]: <H1>target HTTP Latency</H1>
        <P>Actually we are measuring the http get time between our web server and target.
YLegend[target]: Round Trip Time (mS)
ShortLegend[target]: ms
Legend1[target]: Max Round Trip Time in mS
#Legend2[target]: Min Round Trip Time in mS
Legend3[target]: Maximal 5 Minute Max RTT (mS)
#Legend4[target]: Maximal 5 Minute Min RTT (mS)
LegendI[target]:
#LegendO[target]:
WithPeak[target]: ymwd   

As you can see I've tried commenting out the unwanted Legends which didn't work.
TIA -Rob-

Just leave them blank after the : like you've done with LegendI.

Subject: [mrtg] MRTG gets the same data from two different ports of the router
Message-ID: <OFC9BC30C9.F35B133D-ON862570A7.0064210C-862570A7.0064AB11@tiger.fhsu.edu>

Hi there,
The subnets of our school is monitored by MRTG, which is set up on a Unix 
server and accesses a router to monitor the network traffic through ports. 
It used to work as we expected. Lately I found MRTG gets the same data 
from two different ports of the router. In other words, MRTG gets data 
from other port that it should not access. Do you have any idea what 
happened with MRTG or SNMP server on my router? Thanks!
Best regards,

John

Subject: [mrtg] Can 14all.cgi be easily configured/modified to use more than two CPUs?
Message-ID: 
 <3C83DDDEC7B8194A83B7A92B5557BE3421E242@nwpsrv07.edj.ad.edwardjones.com>

I recently upgraded my Solaris-on-Sparc system that I run
MRTG on from two CPUs to four CPUs. I got a nice (expected)
boost in polling capacity, but I did not get an increase
in 14all.cgi graphing performance. I wasn't sure if I 
would - I had noticed that while building large index pages,
there were never more than two copies of 14all.cgi running 
simultaneously. So what I'm wondering is if I can easily 
modify 14all.cgi to spawn four copies of itself now that I 
have four processors at my disposal, or are there other 
reasons why only two instances of 14all.cgi can exist at 
one time?

I did see the following reference to forking RRDs towards
the bottom...

>
>    if ($ENV{MOD_PERL}) {
>        # forking a RRDs child doesn't work with mod_perl
>        return (pack("C*", errorpng()), 'image/png');
>    }
>

...but that looks like graphs just won't be generated if 
mod_perl is in use (it is not in use on my apache 
installation).

I don't see any other references to forking or other 
multiprocess management in the 14all.cgi code, but there
are a lot of things going on in there that I don't quite
understand. Has anyone else looked into getting 14all.cgi
to spawn more than two copies of itself? Am I going down
the right path, or should I be investigating some apache
configuration variable?

John,

Without seeing your cfg file its hard to guess. First place I'd look is 
the instance numbers on the target line of the config.

I added gauge. It didn't change anything. I am having the 
same problem on the dskPercent graph also and that one was 
already using gauge.

Try:

Options[target]: noo

to suppress the 'out' (or second) values.  There is a 'noi' option as well
which suppresses the first (or 'in') values.  I leave it to you to find out
why you shouldn't use both options at once :)

ssCpuRaw* is not percentages, use ssCpu* instead if its available.

$ snmpwalk -v 2c -c string agent systemStats
...
UCD-SNMP-MIB::ssCpuUser.0 = INTEGER: 4
UCD-SNMP-MIB::ssCpuSystem.0 = INTEGER: 14
UCD-SNMP-MIB::ssCpuIdle.0 = INTEGER: 80

I think it has to do with Unscaled.  I am only seeming to 
get this problem if the graphs are listed as unscaled.  I 
figured this out because the graph I have it building 
using dskPercent.1 and such are actually percentages but 
the scales are nonsense.  In fact the Min/Max on the 
bottom of the graph are correct and on dskPercent it says 
7, but the scale is nonsense.  Other clues?  Could 14all 
be graphing the scale incorrectly?

While this is true that they are not percentages, the ssCpuRaw* targets 
are more accurate; that is, they reflect the CPU usage over the 
reporting period rather than immediate readings (which the ssCpuUser.0 
and friends reflect). Using the percentage OIDs results in a graph that 
could potentially have many readings which are not representative of 
your target's actual utilization.

I've got my target set up as:

Target[nemesis_cpu0]: \
    ssCpuRawUser.0&ssCpuRawUser.0:public at localhost + \
    ssCpuRawSystem.0&ssCpuRawSystem.0:public at localhost + \
    ssCpuRawNice.0&ssCpuRawNice.0:public at localhost

MaxBytes[nemesis_cpu0]: 100
Options[nemesis_cpu0]: growright, nopercent, noo
Unscaled[nemesis_cpu0]: ymwd

and it works just fine. mrtg 2.10.15 and rrdtool 1.0.49, Linux 2.6, 
1000Hz timer.

I've successfully used this target on probably twenty-five hosts around 
the office with complete success -- different operating systems and 
different kernel releases as well, all using the Net-SNMP agent.

Hopefully you can get yours working. Goodl luck!

snmpget -v 2c -c public -m /usr/local/mrtg/mibs/BlueArc.824w.mib ba-adm
ethernetInBytes.1
ethernetInBytes.1 98153685734632

snmpget -v 2c -c public -m /usr/local/mrtg/mibs/BlueArc.824w.mib ba-adm
ethernetOutBytes.1
ethernetOutBytes.1 309495727944137

I think there are some big differences between what I get from snmpget and
MRTG get.

Anybody has ideas for it?

Thanks

Looks ok - these are counter type data sources - snmpget won't show you
explicit traffic values, if that's your problem. Counters are always
incrementing and mrtg calculates traffic here by measuring differences
between read counter values and dividing it by number of second in
configured interval. I think it's described somewhere on the MRTG
homepage.

Do any templates exist for monitoring a NetCache proxy appliance?

I found some at http://www.wtcs.org/snmp4tpc/mrtg.htm but haven't been
able to make those work.

Thanks!

I just downloaded the newest version of MRTG form the web and I am now
having problems with Unscaled working.  I have 2 DS3 interfaces in a Cisco
router that I am monitoring and even with the unscaled option they are
always scaled.  I am running an older version with the exact scale command
and they work fine.
 
The first time I start up MRTG and there is no graph data everything looks
correct, but as soon as data hits it starts scaling the graphs.
 
Any idea what would cause this?
 
Thanks,

Message-ID: <0F3177E4824EC94698BAA43AF73D1BC7CF6F18@webmail.ocsny.com>

I am using MRTG 2.12.2 just set it up in a new environment. 
 

 

 

Windows 2003 web server, 

 

I used the same configuration scripts that I have been using for years,
and now no matter what I try the descriptions for the cisco interfaces
do not show up in headings of the individual interface graphs for
indexmaker generated .htm files. They do get listed out on the detail
page(s) though when you drill down. Anyone have any ideas?

I use Apache with modperl. You can use more Apache forks.
Using modperl is great speed improvement.
Another big speed improvement is splitting of mrtg config file.
I have many included config files, one per host.

I have speed problems, only when my Linux machine flushes disk
caches about 2GB to disks.

Do any templates exist for monitoring a NetCache proxy appliance?

I found some at http://www.wtcs.org/snmp4tpc/mrtg.htm but haven't been
able to make those work. It seems they were built for an older version
of the NetCache OS.

Thanks!

Why dont you just "walk" the NetApp MIB and determine which OIDs you
need to monitor?

I, for example, monitor things like:
1.3.6.1.4.1.789.1.8.3.1.0 (objects stored)
1.3.6.1.4.1.789.1.8.3.2.0&1.3.6.1.4.1.789.1.8.3.3.0 (bytes from/to clients)
1.3.6.1.4.1.789.1.8.3.6.1.0 (HTTP requests)
1.3.6.1.4.1.789.1.8.3.6.2.0&1.3.6.1.4.1.789.1.8.3.6.3.0 (hits & misses)
etc...

I beleive there is a very comprehensive list of MIB's with explainations
available within the appliance web interface, depending on what appliance
you are using.

Good luck, Jon

Here is my config:

Please let me know if you can figure out why the unscaled option is not
working.  I have put the unscaled on each interface and as a global
parameter and still have the same results.

Thanks,

Content-Type: text/plain;

I just downloaded the newest version of MRTG form the web and I am now
having problems with Unscaled working.  I have 2 DS3 interfaces in a Cisco
router that I am monitoring and even with the unscaled option they are
always scaled.  I am running an older version with the exact scale command
and they work fine.
 
The first time I start up MRTG and there is no graph data everything looks
correct, but as soon as data hits it starts scaling the graphs.
 
Any idea what would cause this?
 
Thanks,
