Network Metrics

Hello.
I'm trying to configure the network metrics as described in the "Metric Reference Manual", on a 10.1.0.3 Grid Control System.
In the manual you can read that there is a lot more of metrics than what appears when you press over the "Manage Metrics" link.
Indeed, if you navigate to the "All Metrics" page, you see a lot of metrics about networking (Input Errors, Output Errors, etc.), that doesn't appear on the "Manage Metrics" page.
Anybody knows how to configure these metrics, or where are the parameters to enable this?
I'm using Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 Update 5 machines, and the Grid Control Version is the 10.1.0.3. I was looking for some answer on the Metalink site, but nothing appears about it.
Thanks a lot in advance.
HeCSa.

Its mentioned somewhere in Metalink that those metrics do not trigger alerts they are there to provide information to the various performance screens. And hence, you cant change the metric thresholds.

Lync Network assessment tool for pre-implementation load simulations?

Does anyone know of a good tool for running simulated traffic and measuring network performance prior to implementing Lync?
I am looking for a tool that would be able to simulate the different types of traffic generated by Lync and uses the associated codecs. I currently use NetIQ Vivinet Assessor for VoIP traffic, but it is limited to only the standard voice codecs. I
would like to be able to measure the performance of a data network prior to implementing any of the Lync servers, so it cannot rely on any of the MS services.
Thanks in advance for any help in identifying a tool.

Hello,
I am just checking to find out if the LSS tool must be executed within the production Network environment in order to determine the actual and useable Network metrics during a Network Traffic Simulation. One of the LSS
related documents (http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=41935) suggest that the tool should be executed in an isolated test environment.
I will also like to know if I can only perform a Network Readiness Assessment Traffic simulation after deploying the planned Lync 2013 Servers\Topology into production.
I will appreciate some help in clarifying these two points.

KP1#
There are two RRs on the network: RR1 (172.18.254.54) and RR2 (172.18.255.254). All PE routers peer with these two RRs.
The VPNv4 prefix 10.1.36.0/24 is advertised by two PE routers; the first is 172.18.254.56 (hostname: SK1) using RD 65001:202, another is 172.18.255.4 (hostname: SK2) using RD 65001:203. This is an Intranet VPN with RT value of 65001:1200.
I understand why KP1 selects the path via SK2 as the best because it matches the BGP best-path selection criteria: "Prefer the path with the lowest IGP metric to the BGP next hop".
I want to load-balance traffic destined to 10.1.36.0/24 across SK1 and SK2. Thus, I modified the config on KP1 as follows:
router bgp 65001
address-family ipv4 vrf V1:TEST
maximum-paths ibgp 2
But still only one best path is selected and installed into the VRF routing tables, as follows:
KP1#sh ip route vrf V1:TEST
Routing Table: V1:TEST
10.0.0.0/24 is subnetted, 6 subnets
B 10.1.36.0 [200/0] via 172.18.255.4, 20:53:01
KP1#sh ip bgp vpnv4 vrf V1:TEST
Network Next Hop Metric LocPrf Weight Path
Route Distinguisher: 10081:204 (default for vrf V1:TEST)
* i10.1.36.0/24 172.18.254.56 0 100 0 ?
*>i 172.18.255.4 0 100 0 ?
KP1 only installs the two paths when I configured the following:
router bgp 65001
address-family ipv4 vrf V1:TEST
maximum-paths ibgp unequal-cost 2 (I can't exactly remember the command. It should be this one.)
Please advise if this is the correct way to install both routes.
Thank you.
B.Rgds,
Lim TS

Hi,
"maximum-path ... unequal-cost" means install two pathes EVEN IF paths have unequal IGP metric. If the metric is identical then the BGP path selection is identical to not configuring "unequal-cost".
This option is used to skip the normal BGP path selection step "closest IGP neighbor" when it comes to decide what to insert into the IP routing table.
So typically you would use "unequal-cost" as for the VPN customer your core network is not interesting (not even visible). So routing decisions based on your core network metrics are (often) not in the customers interest. The customer is usually interested in loading the redundant access lines. This would potentially not be possible because of the SP BGP selection mechanism.
Hope this helps!
Regards, Martin

Explanation Database Time Spent Waiting (%)

*(Metrics "Database Time Spent Waiting (%)" is at 48.36914 for event class "Other")*
i often get this error on my OEM alerts
could some one say me why this wait is happening and what should i do to resolve this time wait.
Thanks and regards

Hi,
These are database waits for different reasons. Network waits could be due to excessive waits on due to slow network. Other waits can be for different reasons. Majority of the waits falling in the other catagory are idle waits.
Run AWR report on your database to find specific issues.

Had the same issue and found that the new servers that have processors on the network cards result in network packet loss with SAP applications. Switch off option on network card to process network via CPU and no the network card processor.
NIPING is a great tool to find the problem! It is a SAP tool that tests the Network Interface Layer (NI) of a SAP a client to a SAP Server (you load it both ends) Download from SAP Market Place. You need the newest NIPING version for this test, please follow SAP note 799428 to get it.
Took this from another site: Option 2 reported network packet loss. Network guys were then able to trace the issue to network card settings.
NIPING Documentation 13 May 2008
Network connection interrupted or poor network performance.
Other terms
Network, SAP GUI, SAPGUI, RFC, ITS, bandwidth, throughput, latency, round trip time, RTT
Solution
To help diagnose the network or measure network metrics you can test the connection using SAP's NIPING program. You can use NIPING to analyze the network connection between any two machines running SAP software, for example between:
Frontend PC and application server
Two application servers, perhaps belonging to different SAP systems
Application server and database server or live cache server
RFC server or client programs and application server
The machines can be connected either by a local area network (LAN) or wide area network (WAN).
In contrast to the normal PING command, NIPING operates on the TCP socket layer, which is the same layer used by SAP application programs. Therefore, NIPING can be used to identify also errors related to the TCP and socket implementation on the platform.
Please fetch the latest version of NIPING from the service market place as described in SAP note 799428. If this is not possible for you, you can use the NIPING which is located in the executables directory on any SAP server.
How to use NIPING
Starting NIPING without arguments displays a short help message. Find a short exlanation of the most important options below:
First start the NIPING server on computer A (e.g., the Application Server) with the command line:
niping -s -I 0 (the last character is zero, not the letter O)
Then start the client (e.g. on the front-end machine) with the command:
niping -c -H [ -B -L -D ]
may also be the host name or the IP address of host A. The remaining arguments are optional.
(default 1000 bytes) determines the size of the data packets. Please test at least the values 500, 1000, 1400, 1500, 4000 and 10000. This test is especially important to find errors related to the maximum transmission unit (MTU). Please also refer to notes 26086, 107407, 67098 and 44803.
is the number of packets sent (default 10). To find spurious erors it may help to simulate high network load using 1000 loops or more. For a permanent test use a number of e.g. 1000000 loops.
If you test during productive hours and don't want to consume too much bandwidth you can set a between requests ( is in milliseconds).
Examples
1) Measuring network metrics (throughput and RTT)
Throughput is the number of bytes per second that an application can send through the network. Measured values will vary according to the actual load of the network. Round trip time (RTT) is the time for a small data packet to be transmitted from the sender to the receiver and back again to the sender. RTT is mainly influenced by network topology and equipment and normally cannot be improved significantly by increasing bandwidth.
Measuring throughput
niping -c -H -B 100000
The use of large blocks reduces impact of network latency. After completion niping will report throughput as value tr2 in kB/s (kilobytes per second).
Measuring RTT
niping -c -H -B 1 -L 100
(The buffersize of 1 may cause an error in older versions of niping. If so please use niping -c -H -B 20 -L 100 instead)
Small blocks and 100 loops are used to measure the average RTT. The value av2 represents the RTT in ms (milliseconds)
2) Long LAN stability test:
niping -c -H -B 10000 -D 100 -L 360000
This test will consume 100000 Bytes/second of bandwidth (about 10% of a 10 mbps Ethernet) and run for 10 hours.
You need the newest NIPING version for this test, please follow SAP note 799428 to get it.
3a) Long WAN test (stability):
niping -c -H -B 200 -D 1000 -L 36000
This test uses about 5% of an ISDN line of 64 kbps and also runs for 10 hours.
Interpreting NIPING's output: In this test, the times measured by NIPING correspond mostly to the network latency (round trip time - RTT). The throughput measurement has no meaning in this case.
3b) Long WAN test (idle timeouts):
niping -c -H -P -D 3600000
This test establishes a TCP connection and sends a test packet every
hour (delay of 3600000ms). It runs for 10 hours. The goal is to see if
the TCP connection is disrupted by some "idle timeout". Most firewalls
apply such timeouts. But SAP applications make use of long lasting TCP
connection and thus may be hit by such idle timeouts.
You need the newest NIPING version for this test, please follow SAP
note 799428 to get it.
4) Short throughput/stability test:
niping -c -H -B 1000000 -L 100
Tests connection with 100 MB of data as fast as possibly. On a 100 Mbps Ethernet this should take about 10 seconds. During the test, other applications may be impaired. On a slow WAN connection, reduce loops to 10 (-L 10).
Interpreting NIPING's output: This test uses large blocks of data. Therefore, it can be used to measure throughput available to NIPING. Check the output "tr2". It states the throughtput in kilo-byte per second measured from all packets except the fastest and the slowest one. Multiply this value by 10 to obtain an estimate of the line bandwidth in kilo-bit per second (kbps). Does this value differ by a large amount (at least a factor of two) from the one expected for the connection you are analyzing? This could be an indication of network problems: Either the line is overloaded, or there are other problems with the connection.
5) MTU test:
See related notes 155147 and 107407 for an explanation of this test (even if you are not analyzing a Windows system).
niping -c -H -B
Vary X according to the values given above (500, 1000, 1400, 1500, 4000, 10000 and 40000)
Note for Windows NT/2000: If client or server are under heavy load while you perform the measurement, you should start NIPING with high priority. To do this, start NIPING with the following command line:
start /b /wait /high niping
Please test the TCP/IP communication between all concerned machines. Using the options described above, you can either do a long time connection test to find intermittent problems or do a short term stress test with large packets to find fundamental connection problems.
NIPING should not abort with an error message under any circumstances. If you can reproduce an error using NIPING then the problem is definitely related to the network layers, not to the application.
Information needed by SAP
If you need further assistance from SAP support, please start both client and server with the additional argument
-V 2 -T
Replace with an appropriate file name for trace output.
Now send both trace files along with a description of what you did to produce the traces to SAP. (For example, attach the files to a problem message).

Multiple network adapters and metric settings

I can't seem to get Windows to use the preferred wired adapter over the wireless. I have set a manual metric value to each adapter and it shows correctly in the route table but that doesn't seem to matter. Its still always defaulting to using
the wireless adapter. I changed the order in the advanced settings on Manage network connections as well but nether seem to work.

My LAN is connected to a router that makes a connection to my office. The wifi is connected to my home wifi.
So if I connected to something in the office and then turn on the wifi i get immediately disconnected and can't get back in until i turn off the wifi. I can also run nslookup and with the wifi turned on it always goes to the wifi router. I use
the wifi to access a shared storage i use with other computers in my house.
At one time this did work with this setup but last week i swapped out my drive for a larger one and re installed windows, hasn't worked since.

Hi,
As this setup did work at one time, so I think all settings you made is right, according to your description, the issue happened after you reinstall Windows, the system might lose some important updates, I suggest you check for updates, and keep all important
updates. Meanwhile, please reinstsall the network adapter driver as a test, it's recommended to look for the driver in the manufacture website.

What is Network In and Network Out Metrics on Cloud Service

Hi,
We have hosted Cloud Services on Azure through Visual Studio Online & Setup basic Performance metrics. However not sure about Network In and Network Out Metrics on Cloud Services hosted through Visual Studio Online.
Please explain.
Regards, Subhash Konduru

Hi,
I dont think it makes any difference if deployed via VSO, as far as i know the the Network In/Out metric include the
Performance Counter
"Bytes Received/Bytes Sent", You will be charged only for the Network Out (Outbound Data).
If you have more questions/doubts I would suggest you create a Free Billing/Subscription ticket from the link below.

Network i/o metric meaning

In the supermetrics page in vROps I see a metric called network i/o -> 4000. What does the "4000" metric refer to ?
Thanks!

Looks like a question not for vRO but for vROps community https://communities.vmware.com/community/vmtn/vcenter/vcops

Forms 9i sizing metrics/ network bandwith

I have a potential customer who are evaluating Forms 9i for their intranet. Their biggest concern is the size of the Forms deployed to the client compared to JSP pages and HTML/Javascript, the size of any java classes that would need to download to the client, on-going communication between the client and app server, and any Jinitiator programs that would need to be installed as all program applications are managed by local IT teams and not the end user.
I need some ballpark facts and figures on the size of Forms and their relative % reduction in footprint in comparison with previous releases of Forms and JSPs.
Also, I need to confirm what exactly other than a browser (the customer's corp standard is IE 5.0.1) has to preinstalled on an end user's PC.

Hi Grant,
Thank you for the info thus far.
I've read through the capacity planning guide. It gives me a good indication of resource usage on the middle tier. However, what about the client?
I understand from what you have stated that the JAR files are cached once regardless of the JVM used. Is this true for JVM supplied with Internet Explorer 5.01? Will this 'older' version of the browser even have a JVM modern enough to cope with the demands of forms 9i? Or will I need JInitiator?
How big is Jinitiator if I do need to download it? 5mb, 10mb, 50mb?
What about the one off JAR file that will get cached? I heard a ball park of 8mb.
When I launch a medium form as a servlet, the capacity planning guide says approx 6.2mb per user. What is this 6.2mb? Is it an approximate .FMX file size, memory, or a combination of the two? Where is this 6.2mb allocated? Is this memory/swap space allocated on the servlet engine on the application server machine or is this 6.2mb downloaded/allocated on the client PC?
What for a typical form is downloaded to the client when I launch a Forms based application as a servlet? Is the entire Forms file downloaded after which there is only minimal traffic going back and forth between the client and middle tier. Or does the servlet act like a screen scraper (i.e., Citrix) and the already cached classes are used to render everything and the extend of the network traffic limited to rendering differences in screen appearance?
I understand that a Forms application is typically aimed for more complex interactive applications. However, if you have skills in both Web PLSQL (to render HTML and Javascript), Java and Forms, it would make sense to leverage those skills that would make you more productive. It is very quick to build a large number of screens in Forms - it would take longer coding from scratch with HTML/Javascript. The application we need to build is large in terms of the number of screens, but not too complex in terms of a demand for a high level of client side validation.
If the trade off in performance is small it would be prudent to develop in Forms if you could get the application built and live in a quarter of the man days. If the trade off is going to be significant then it would be more prudent to go down the HTML/Javascript or JSP route.
I hope this makes sense.
Cheers,

[root@localhost ~]# adsl-setup
Welcome to the ADSL client setup. First, I will run some checks on
your system to make sure the PPPoE client is installed properly...
LOGIN NAME
Enter your Login Name (default root): kris_9929
INTERFACE
Enter the Ethernet interface connected to the ADSL modem
For Solaris, this is likely to be something like /dev/hme0.
For Linux, it will be ethX, where 'X' is a number.
(default eth0): eth1
Do you want the link to come up on demand, or stay up continuously?
If you want it to come up on demand, enter the idle time in seconds
after which the link should be dropped. If you want the link to
stay up permanently, enter 'no' (two letters, lower-case.)
NOTE: Demand-activated links do not interact well with dynamic IP
addresses. You may have some problems with demand-activated links.
Enter the demand value (default no):
DNS
Please enter the IP address of your ISP's primary DNS server.
If your ISP claims that 'the server will provide dynamic DNS addresses',
enter 'server' (all lower-case) here.
If you just press enter, I will assume you know what you are
doing and not modify your DNS setup.
Enter the DNS information here: server
PASSWORD
Please enter your Password:
Please re-enter your Password:
USERCTRL
Please enter 'yes' (three letters, lower-case.) if you want to allow
normal user to start or stop DSL connection (default yes): yes
FIREWALLING
Please choose the firewall rules to use. Note that these rules are
very basic. You are strongly encouraged to use a more sophisticated
firewall setup; however, these will provide basic security. If you
are running any servers on your machine, you must choose 'NONE' and
set up firewalling yourself. Otherwise, the firewall rules will deny
access to all standard servers like Web, e-mail, ftp, etc. If you
are using SSH, the rules will block outgoing SSH connections which
allocate a privileged source port.
The firewall choices are:
0 - NONE: This script will not set any firewall rules. You are responsible
          for ensuring the security of your machine. You are STRONGLY
          recommended to use some kind of firewall rules.
1 - STANDALONE: Appropriate for a basic stand-alone web-surfing workstation
2 - MASQUERADE: Appropriate for a machine acting as an Internet gateway
                for a LAN
Choose a type of firewall (0-2): 1
Start this connection at boot time
Do you want to start this connection at boot time?
Please enter no or yes (default no):no

Network Trouble - eth0 not interface for sis900 controller

I'm not sure how to even state this problem, but I have gone through the guides a couple of times to try and find what I missed or some more enlightening information. Currently, I get nothing if I ping google, or anything else for that matter.
Here's what I have,
useful stuff from my rc.conf file:
# HARDWARE
# MOD_AUTOLOAD: Allow autoloading of modules at boot and when needed
# MOD_BLACKLIST: Prevent udev from loading these modules
# MODULES: Modules to load at boot-up. Prefix with a ! to blacklist.
# NOTE: Use of 'MOD_BLACKLIST' is deprecated. Please use ! in the MODULES array.
MOD_AUTOLOAD="yes"
#MOD_BLACKLIST=() #deprecated
MODULES=(sis900 !snd_pcsp !pcspkr)
# Scan for LVM volume groups at startup, required if you use LVM
USELVM="no"
# NETWORKING
# HOSTNAME: Hostname of machine. Should also be put in /etc/hosts
HOSTNAME="archPC"
# Use 'ifconfig -a' or 'ls /sys/class/net/' to see all available interfaces.
# Interfaces to start at boot-up (in this order)
# Declare each interface then list in INTERFACES
# - prefix an entry in INTERFACES with a ! to disable it
# - no hyphens in your interface names - Bash doesn't like it
# DHCP: Set your interface to "dhcp" (eth0="dhcp")
# Wireless: See network profiles below
#Static IP example
#eth0="eth0 192.168.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255"
eth0="dhcp"
INTERFACES=(eth0)
# Routes to start at boot-up (in this order)
# Declare each route then list in ROUTES
# - prefix an entry in ROUTES with a ! to disable it
gateway="default gw 192.168.0.1"
ROUTES=(!gateway)
# Enable these network profiles at boot-up. These are only useful
# if you happen to need multiple network configurations (ie, laptop users)
# - set to 'menu' to present a menu during boot-up (dialog package required)
# - prefix an entry with a ! to disable it
# Network profiles are found in /etc/network.d
# This now requires the netcfg package
#NETWORKS=(main)
# DAEMONS
# Daemons to start at boot-up (in this order)
# - prefix a daemon with a ! to disable it
# - prefix a daemon with a @ to start it up in the background
DAEMONS=(syslog-ng network netfs crond)
and from /etc/hosts:
# /etc/hosts: static lookup table for host names
#<ip-address> <hostname.domain.org> <hostname>
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost archPC

Is the issue that you don't have an IP address? We can fix that (I think )

[SOLVED] network randomly doesn't work after reboot (e100)

Hi
Lately I have some weird issues with network. I shutdown computer during night, so basicly I reboot it at least once per day and every now and then without any pattern network doesn't work at all and so far only solution I have found is to reboot (again).
Before anything else I'm sure it's not hardware problem, since other OS on same computer don't have any issues, neither is router since other devices in network from laptops to mobile phones work flawless.
Relevant info and what I have found so far (not everything is copy/pasted so there may be some typos):
$less rc.conf (network part)

So basicly network is dead, can't even ping router, cable connection is detected tho (lights are on). I have tried to restart newtork with /etc/rc.d/network stop/start, nothing. Only clue is dmesg.
$dmesg

modrope -r e100 and then reloading it doesn't help either, but reboot does (once I had to reboot twice tho).
Anyone with more clue and ideas then me, it's getting really annoying, it also kill whole KDE plasma-desktop for couple of minutes before plasmoids find out network is really down and I'm not really fan of morning "gamble". I can't pinpoint some hard date/update when this started to happening because like I said it's random but last couple of months should be quite accurate. Thanks in advance.
EDIT: dmesg when network works:

I don't have anything special set at router but I doubt rc.conf play any role. I will try to set it up with dhcp (but I think I have tried that already) if there is any change.
This morning I had to reboot twice, so new kernel didn't help. Fowler, what network card are you using, also e100 (well or some intel)? I dunno, should this be handed to the kernel team? If it will piss me enough one morning I'll just go and buy a new network card, just wanna be sure that will really solve the problem.
UPDATE: OK, this is just silly. I remebered I have acctualy onboard LAN so I edited rc.conf and dived into the dust under my desk to move cable and there I found out it was acctual onboard in use all the time Now this dosen't make much sense to me anymore, when I can't get net up all the stuff in dmesg is e100 related. Anyway, I connected network to e100 and rebooted, suprise, same story. Dmesg reported again link was not ready. I edited rc.conf to
INTERFACES=(eth0 !eth1)
in case this has anything to do with proper timing at assigning whatever needs to be assigned to network cards at boot so I'm sure just 1 card with all info provided get's kicked in at boot. First reboot after that works, it dosen't prove anything yet but at leat it's some kind of progress in recognising proper cause.
UPDATE 2: Nah, still happens. Googling for "no link during initialization" show a lot of familiar problems, almost all on nforce motherboards and mine is nforce too. I just don't get it why this mess seperate PCI network card. In any case it's extremely annoying.

Difficulty obtaining open DNS IP using any network config tool.

Hey everyone... I've searched the thread archives and haven't found a solution to this yet...
I'm having a hard time connecting to any of my school networks. One is a guest network, one is a wpa2 encrypted network.
Using nmcli to connect (after creating the profile) I get the following error:
└─> nmcli con up id <SCHOOL>.edu
Active connection state: activating
Active connection path: /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/ActiveConnection/1
** (process:6888): WARNING **: _nm_object_get_property: Error getting 'State' for /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/ActiveConnection/1: (19) Method "Get" with signature "ss" on interface "org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties" doesn't exist
state: unknown
Error: Connection activation failed.
Using netcfg with the following config, it never connects saying "WPA Authentication/Association Failed"
CONNECTION='wireless'
INTERFACE=wlan0
SECURITY='wpa-configsection'
IP='dhcp'
CONFIGSECTION='
ssid="<SCHOOL>.edu"
key_mgmt=WPA-EAP
eap=PEAP
group=CCMP
pairwise=CCMP
identity="wei001"
password="<PASSWORD>"
priority=1
phase2="auth=MSCHAPV2"'
I would be OK using either of these methods, but neither of them seem to work... any ideas?
EDIT:
This method works, but takes a couple of tries to finally connect.
ifconfig wlan0 down
ifconfig wlan0 up
iwlist wlan0 scan
iwconfig wlan0 essid "network_name"
dhcpcd wlan0

Thanks for looking at this =] I thought i had it working last night, but it takes multiple attempts to finally connect. I did establish a connection a couple of times. As in, 1 out of 20 tries.

Bluetooth Network and Internet sharing issue

I'm trying to set up a network through Bluetooth between two computers having the latest Toshiba Stack installed, and to share the Internet connection with the second computer.
On the firs computer I've set the Internet Connection Sharing, and because of this it automatically sets the TCP/IP adresses for the Bluetooth Personal Area network (192.168.0.1).
On the 2nd computer, i've set everything to obtain it automatically. Firewalls (Kaspersky) disabled.
When I connect the 2 Bluetooth devices, everything looks fine, the 2nd automatically obtains the IP adress, I can ping both computers, and the Internet also works on the 2nd computer, for a few seconds! After that, it appears like the 2nd computer is disconnected from the network... what could be the problem?
In the event viewer under the System tab, I've found Informations like these:
2nd comp:
The system detected that network adapter \DEVICE\TCPIP_{E44D18EB-91F5-4... was connected to the network, and has initiated normal operation over the network adapter.
The browser has forced an election on network \Device\NetBT_Tcpip_{E44D18EB-... because a master browser was stopped.
and at 1st comp also appeares this:
The system detected that network adapter Bluetooth...Area Network - Packet Scheduler Miniport was disconnected from the network, and the adapter's network configuration has been released. If the network adapter was not disconnected, this may indicate that it has malfunctioned. Please contact your vendor for updated drivers.
