SNMP Monitoring
Hi!
I have a requirement. I have set up a Physical Standby and configured Data Guard also. ( Oracle 9i EE ).
As you all know there is no such thing as automatic failover from the Primary to the Standby in 9i. I need a notification be sent incase the Primary goes down..
How do I do it? I was adviced to use SNMP and monitor the Primary by writing scripts...
But I have no clue . Can anyone help me here ?
Thanks,
Radhika
What about Oracle Enterpsie Manager?<br>
--> Set up a test which check the availability.<br>
Or Servers Alive which is free, until you are using not more than 10 tests.<br>
<br>
Another idea would be Nagios, but this is not very easy to setup. But, when it is running, it stays running..<br><br>
Regards<br>

SNMP monitoring of Oracle 10g?
Hi there,
I'm curious about using SNMP technology to monitor Oracle 10g databases.
I've done some light reading on the subject and I'm now at the stage
where I have a few questions.
-What exactly do I need to configure in my Oracle 10g environment?
-Is Enterprise Manager the best and/or only UI available for me
to carry out configuration chores?
-I see no SNMP specific documentation for 10g; why is that?
-I do see a good document for 9i:
Oracle SNMP Support Reference Guide Release 9.2.0 Part Number A96672-01
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/em.920/a96672/toc.htm
Is the above document suitable for configuring SNMP monitoring of Oracle
in a 10g environment?
-moiI'm able to set up traps via the EM website following these instructions:
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/em.102/b40002/notification.htm
However, what I'm really looking for is the ability to do snmp gets. I need functionality similar to how the old school DBSNMP under OMS used to work. These commands seem to be totally missing. I found the following documentation:
http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/em.102/b16244/chap2.htm#sthref74
Which indicates there should be an snmp subfolder under $ORACLE_HOME/sysman, but that folder does not exist in my installation. I installed Oracle EE. Is there another package I need to install in order to make the subagent run like a normal snmp agent?
So far if I do a:
emctl start dbconsole
that starts up the EM Website and I can use that no probelm. If I...
emctl start agent -- I get:
Starting agent ... started.
issuing a 'emctl staus agent' gives me a normal status message. Things start to get strange when I try to start the subagent, which to my understanding is what I need running in order to to talk to net-snmp, which is the master agent running on this host. Here's what happens:
[zaro@cheetah bin]$ ./emctl start subagent
Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Database Control Release 10.2.0.1.0

Sub agent is not running..
I guess my question is how do I get to have the ability I used to have back in 8i to start up dbsnmp and then have my SNMP monitoring app "discover" the agent and use its instrumentation to get data? -
Is there anyway to monitor network traffic on the newer Time Capsules, similar to the SNMP monitoring previously?
Can I use a real router and still have the Time Capsule for backups etc?
Yes, that is what Bridge Mode is for. Just connect the Time Capsule to a LAN <--> Ethernet port on your "main" router. -
Prime\SNMP Monitoring of dynamic interfaces
Hi - Is anyone aware of a method of monitoring the bandwidth utilisation on a dynamic interface on a WLC?
I'd like to monitor the traffic on each dynamic interface to generate usage stats on centrally switched guest and employee SSID's.
ThanksYou have to get that stats from switch where you defined those SVI. WLC dynamic interface not terminate any L3 traffic & switch SVI is the place to go.
If you have netflow monitoring or simple snmp monitoring tool, you can get that stats from the switch.

Recommended product for syslogging and snmp monitoring
Hi,
We currently use KIWI syslog but can anyone recommend a better product for syslogs from Firewalls, Routers and Switches. Our current product creates a seperate text file per day per device. Ideally I would like all these to be combined (or combinable for display purposes) into one log that shows to update realtime and have the ability to filterout "background noise" - stuff we know is acceptable, as well as being able to run simple or quick searches and reports. Ideally for asbout 200+ devices.
Am I too hopeful or is there a product out there that can do this (that also will not break my companies bank account).
Also, recommended products for SNMP monitoring if better than we currently use would be useful - currently using Orion and SNMPc.
Regards
AdrianAdrian,
We use syslog-ng for RHEL. It can do what you need as far as writing to files and filtering out background noise, but it is not a search/reporting tool. If KIWI does the latter, I imagine you could tell it to read from the file that syslog-ng creates.
It is open source for writing files through version 3.1.4. Later versions require licensing to write to files or if you are using a Windows OS.
http://www.balabit.com/downloads/files/syslog-ng/open-source-edition/3.1.4
Here are some other options:
Rsyslog: http://www.rsyslog.com/
Splunk: http://www.splunk.com/
Snare: http://www.intersectalliance.com/projects/index.html
Hope this helps.

SNMP Monitor PIX throught VPN tunnel
I have two Cisco PIX 515e firewalls configured in fail-over. The primary PIX has private address 192.168.1.5 and the secondary PIX (standby) has a private address 192.168.1.6. The PIX firewalls are running IOS 6.3.3. I'm connecting to the PIX firewalls through a VPN tunnel (PIXes terminate VPN tunnel) and my monitoring system uses SNMP to monitor devices behind the PIX firewalls and the primary PIX private IP address. I would also like to monitor the standby IP address 192.168.1.6 from the tunnel and have been unsuccessful thus far. I can do this from behind the PIX, but not through the tunnel (only the primary PIX).
Is there a way I can SNMP monitor (and PING) the IP address of the standby PIX through the VPN tunnel?
Please send email to [email protected]
Thank you,
frankPaul,
Thank you for your email. Yes, we currently use this command to monitor the active private IP of the active PIX firewall through the VPN tunnel. What I would like to be able to monitor is the private IP address of the standby PIX firewall (has a different IP address while in standby mode) would like to make sure that it too is up and running (I can do this today for other PIX firewalls from the inside, but not through the tunnel.
Best regards,
Frank Pikelner
Hi Frank,
Dont think you are going to get that to work due to the routing issues. Sending syslog messages to the snmp server is the only way Ive done it in the past. Have you given this a try?

SCOM 2012 SP1 - Setup SNMP monitoring = ping OK, no response SNMP.
Hello,
I've tried the snmp monitoring in lab domain, everthing work. Now I work in the production environment, but I can't make work the snmp. I've tried only snmp, but the same error occure. The Ping is ok, all my firewalls rules allows snmp and ping over
the domain.
But when I launche the discovery, I've got an error after "No Response SNMP". I've analized the network with wireshark, I see the snmp get send to scom to the network device, but the netowrk device, reply " Destionation unreachable (Port unreachable)".
I've check with "netstat -ano -p udp" but I don't see the port 162, the 161 is open and snmp.exe service use it. But 162 is not open and Healthservice.exe doesn't use it.
I tried to reboot the server, but nothing change. And I check all my configuration, and it's the same in my lab domain and te production.
Anybody have the same issue? Or a workaround?
Thank you in advance.
KimBaxZHello Roger,
1. Windows Firewall
a. SNMP service authorized
b. SNMP trap not authorized
c. PING.exe authorized
d. HealthService.exe authorized
2. SNMP service configuration
a. Security => Community name + Right OK
b. Security => Accept SNMP packets from any host
3. SNMP trap service disabled
4. The network device (cisco switch is already configured and the snmp work well)
a. It's possible to execute a snmp walk on the switch, and we get all the data (we use a différents
computer to do this, like a linux server on the same network)
5. We use snmp v2 on the switch, and during the discovery scom, send v2c snmp get to the switch with the good community name.
6. I tried to forge a snmp v2 packet and send them to the scom server, wireshark see the packet
During the discovery the switch get the snmp request, but he can't reply, the snmp trap port (162) on the scom server is not open. And I don't know why. -
Nagios SNMP Monitoring for NSS devices ?
Has anyone managed to utilise the inbuilt SNMP functions of the NSS with nagios efficiently ?
if so, what plugins are you using and how have you got them configured ?
SteveThere are some threads in this forum regarding this already. It is not as easy as monitoring a switch or router. the controllers combine the AP mac with the oid for unique lines. You can glean some snmp info off the controllers by using some of the generic OIDs and controller specific OIDs, but you will need an snmp monitoring program that you can load the WLC MIBs into and then tailor your monitoring of the controller based on that. I use Cacti, which is really awesome, but I would need to grab the complete OID off each controller based on the APs on it, which is fine as long as the AP is on that particular controller and not another one. snmpwalk is your friend in this case.

SNMP Monitoring behind SCOM Gateway Server
Hi All
Is it possible to monitor Network devices / SNMP that sit behind a SCOM Gateway server? If so, how do these get discovered?
I have a need to monitor devices like HP printers, WAP, JetDirect cards, EPOS equipment etc. on a site that doesn't have SCOM on-premise.
Are there any limitations to this?
ThanksHi,
Yes, it is possible. when you create discovery, you may specify that it should run from gateway server.
On the device you want to monitor, set your SNMP public community string to point to the IP address of the SCOM Gateway server. In the SCOM Administration console, choose Network Devices in the Discovery Managment Wizard choose network device and click next.
In the next screen enter the IP address of the network device you want to monitor and under the mangment server drop down choose the gateway server who’s IP you entered in the SNMP string earlier.
Here is a similar thread for you reference:

In addition, you may check is there any management pack for your devices and import them into your management group.

SNMP Monitoring shows bandwidth x2
I have tried a couple SNMP monitoring applications on both my Mac and Windows machines and both are showing my WAN usage as double what it should be. I have a 15Mbps connection to the Internet and when I do a speedtest it shows as 30Mbps on the mgi1 interface. I have noticed this for awhile (pretty sure several firmware versions) but thought I would reach out to the community finally. I am running 7.6.4 on my TC Gen4.
Hi deepu vc,
For bandwidth monitoring you should use the SNMP Traffic Sensor or a NetFlow Sensor. PRTG offers various versions:
NetFlow 5
NetFlow 9
IPFIX
I linked the corresponding pages of the PRTG manual. Within the next few weeks there will also be a new Trap Receiver Sensor.
I hope this helps...
Kind regards,

Hi,
we use a snmp monitoring software called Nagios in our LAN. Now we have two WLC 4404. Is it possible to monitor values via snmp? Is someone else doing it so?

SCOM 2012 SP1 - Show on event view all snmp trap (SNMP monitoring work)
Hello everybody,
Sorry for my english, I write normaly in french, but we have more result in english.
I have a problem with SCOM 2012. I try to catch all snmp traps sended by a 2960 CISCO switch on a EventView with a specific rule (Authoring->Rule->Collection Rules -> Event Based -> SNMP Trap (Event) based on the object target "Node")
I creat a specific management pack juste for the rule and the views.
SNMP Monitoring - CISOC 2960 => It's OK, I can have the processor state, utilization, etc ...
SNMP Monitoring Ubuntu computer => It's OK, I can have all the state I want.
SNMP Traps => The switch or the computer send traps over the network, and I can see in wireshark, the server receive the traps
SNMP Service (Windows service) => Disabled
SNMP trap (Windows service) => Disabled
Health Service (Windows service) => Enabled
Port 162 UDP => Open and listenning by the MonitoringHost.exe
Firewall rules => Everythinks is OK
SNMP Trap send version is => 2c
SNMP Monitoring device version is => 2c

Computer expert system technologyHello Yan Li,
I read your link, and I found this :
The network devices must be discovered and registered as ICMPSNMP devices.
And when I make the dicovery the first time, ICMP doesn't work, so I put only SNMP. This morning I tried with ICMP and SNMP, but the same problem come to me. And I found the rootcause of the problem with this post : http://www.code4ward.net/main/Blog/tabid/70/EntryId/105/Troubleshooting-Network-Discovery-in-SCOM-2012.aspx
I allowed the SNMP service, ping, and Health Service, just after I try a second time to dicover my device and it's work (ICMP and SNMP).
I recreat all my management pack and the rule. And now it's work! Thank you very much for your help!!
Have a nice day
Best regards

SNMP monitoring of UCS environment
Hello,
We use Level Platforms (Managed Workplace Service Center) to monitor the environments my company supports.
We have an On Site Manager installed within a UCS environment which will monitor host IPs, etc.
The question is the best way to monitor the rest. (blades without service profiles assigned, etc.)
I was configuring new Policy Modules in Service Center and need to import MIBs, and wondered which ones would be needed. There are many for the UCS platform, and I thought maybe I was going about it all wrong.
For reference, we have 6 chassis and @ 42 blades, 2 6248s. Actually, it's a VCE vBlockI'm able to set up traps via the EM website following these instructions:

SNMP Monitoring Agent for OAM (COREid) - Share your experiences
I'm interested in hearing from anyone who has successfully implemented the monitoring agent. I would like to hear how you implemented the agent and how you consume the traps as well as any reactive automation that you may have also implemented to respond to trouble conditions. I'm preparing to use the agent for monitoring our environment (have used other moniroting techniques to date) and I would like to hear from anyone who has been through this process and has helpful guidance for my implementation.
Thanks!
--AaronAlan,
yeah it does come with net-snmp but I was more likely asking if somebody actually tested it or made some experience with integration it into HP OVPI or eHealth.
I thought I ask before I test ... maybe it doesnt work well or another client is better ...

Dear all,
I'm a little bit confused about this piece of hardware.
I wonder if there is possibility of monitoring power supply and fans status (like on the other Cisco devices)?
This info is usually located in ENV-MIB, but seems to me, there is no support of this MIB. Even temperature of box is located in some weird OID.
Does anyone know, where to find above mentioned?
For start, power supply (to see through snmp, something like this via CLI):
Power Supply 1................................... Present, OK
Thanks for ideas.
PavelHi Pavel:
Please know that the wireless LAN controllers were developed by Airespace and prior to their acquisition by Cisco in 2005, they had already created their own SNMP MIBs (the OIDs start .1.3.6.1.4.1.14179). Since the acquisition, several former Airespace objects have been obsoleted and replaced by CISCO-LWAPP-* or other Cisco objects, yet some former Airespace objects remain in use, depending on the software train in use on the wireless LAN controller. There are wireless MIBs for each software train in the Software Center.
All the maintenance releases (i.e. 7.0.240.0, 7.0.230.0, 7.0.220.0, 7.0.172.0, etc.) within a given train (i.e. 7.0.something.something, 6.0.something.something, 5.2.something.something) should have the same objects since maintenance releases are only supposed to contain bug fixes, while trains introduce new features and/or functionality--which, in turn, would require new SNMP objects.

Oracle VM 3.0 and HP Hardware SNMP monitoring
Has anyone successfully installed a SNMP tool to monitor Hard disk status in an HP Proliant server that has OVM 3.x server running on it? Insight Manager seems to require too many RPMs that we can not install and we are playing with ZenOss but it too does not seem to detect the hard disks. Though at the moment, I have CPU, Power Supplies and memory being monitored. Just not the internal RAID set that receives the OVM Server software.
This must be possible.Avi Miller wrote:
If you have Oracle VM Support, you can download the net-snmp RPMs for Oracle VM 3.0 from My Oracle Support.Yes i have done that and installed them as well as all of the other rpms needed. Once that was done and configured Zenoss shows me
Network Routes
Memory Modules
Power Supplies
Interfaces
Fans
Temperature Sensors
FileSystems
IP Services
Processors
but not
Expansion Cards
Hard Disks
Logical Disks
I have these other 3 on other servers, so it must be an agent needs to be started or configured that isn't there. In this case Zenoss might not be the correct solution but I am wondering what others have done to solve this type of issue. We need hard disk monitoring as its vital to knowing if one disk goes bad in the RAID01 array so we can change it out before the other one fails.
Not comfortable of going to production without this monitoring.
