Extreme Networks XOS CPU monitoring

[jay]

Hi

Has anyone had any luck monitoring CPU on Extreme Networks XOS based switches (BD8810, X450's) ?? I'm running various versions of XOS on the network. I'm currently trying to get this working with a BD8810 running 12.0.1.11

I have the mib file installed. Looking at the mib the OID for extremeCpuAggregateUtilization - 1.3.6.1.4.1.1916.1.1.1.28 I don't get any data back from an SNMPWALK

C:\net-snmp\bin>snmpwalk -v 2c -c public 172.27.7.240 1.3.6.1.4.1.1916.1.1.1.2
8
SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.1916.1.1.1.28.0 = INTEGER: 0

I have then tried to walk the extremeCpuTask2Table

-- OID extremeSystemCommon.24 has been deprecated and extremeCpuTasktable
-- has been moved to extremeSystemCommon.29 with new name extremeCpuTask2table


-- The CPU Task table lists all executing tasks
--

Has anyone out there had any luck with monitoring the CPU of XOS switches???

We have the same problem at work.

X200 Switches running Extremeware returns CPU usage correctly

X250, X450 and BD8810 running Extreme OS returns '0' for CPU usage.

I think Extreme Networks may change the oid in wich CPU usage exports OR there's a bug in actual Extreme OS revision that the CPU usage didn't export at all.

Looking for a solution too...

[jay]

I'll raise a TAC with Extreme and see what they see. I'll let you know the response when I get it.

Jay

[djmanou]

Did you receive an explanation from Extreme Networks?

Regards.

[jay]

oooops. Knew there was something I needed to do (

I will get a TAC raised this afternoon and I will update the post as soon as I hear anything.

Jay

[tl1997]

Did you try .1.3.6.1.4.1.1916.1.32.1.4.1.9.11?

I used that for just a basic 0-100% utilization graph on an X450 and an 8810 that I had out for demo about 9 months ago.

A lot of the other OIDs I believe are deprecated from ExtremeWare. At least that was the explanation I recall when I inquired about it sometime ago. I could probably dig back in email and find the full explanation. As I recall the XOS docs make reference to that, but not in a very obvious way.

I've attached the template that I used. I only tried it under 11.6 and 12.0 beta on an X450, and 11.6 on an 8810, but it worked fine and reported accurate results on both versions.

I have another one that does internal temperature if anyone is interested.

Hi Tom

Excellent work. You have just pointed me in the right direction. I have just been looking at the MIB table for 12.0.1.11 and I can see where you get the OID from.

This works for me on a number of BD8810 and X4540's running XOS 12.0.1.11, 11.6.2.9, 11.4.4.7 and also 11.4.3.4

I have yet to download the template and use it yet though.

I will look into seeing if I can create a template where you can monitor the CPU of individual processes. I will post as soon as I have created this.

Hi

What I have noticed is that if you use 1.3.6.1.4.1.1916.1.32.1.4.1.9.11 it only allows you to monitor CPU for the BD's as 11 is the slot id for MSM-A. When you walk the OID for an X450 it gives the ID as 1 so you would need 2 data and graph templates or 1 data with both OIDS in there and 1 graph template. I'm currently testing the latter. I will post if successful.

Jay

[tl1997]

That's a good point. I could have sworn I did than on an X450, but thinking back, I had the X450s earlier, I may have mucked with the template and changed the OID for the 8810. I never really used these in production, I just did a quick check to make sure I could monitor what I wanted to monitor and that was the last I looked at it.

[jay]

Hi

Just to let you know I'm in the process of testing new CPU and Memory templates. I have created data queries so you can reference the correct index rather than having to create multiple data and graph templates for each device.

I will post these as soon as I'm happy they are working correctly.

Hi

I have just posted the new templates for CPU and Memory usage for XOS based switches. See http://forums.cacti.net/viewtopic.php?p=108717#108717

I have just had a look at creating a CPU template to monitor individual processes on XOS switches but it looks like the processname isn't readable within SNMP

SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.1916.1.32.1.3.1.2 = No Such Object available on this age
nt at this OID


Looking at the MIB for 12.0.1.11 this isn't accessible


extremeCpuMonitorProcessName OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX DisplayString (SIZE(1..31))
MAX-ACCESS not-accessible

DESCRIPTION
"Name associated with the reported process id."

Not worth creating the templates without the process name as the ID doesn't mean a thing and you can't see what the ID is on the switch itself. I'll ask Extreme about this. "SIGH"

[jay]

Response from our Extreme Systems Engineer regarding getting the process name added to XOS.

"Features are fixed for the next two releases of code. Once the request has been scoped I will know more about timescales"

Hi Folks,

I have been reading this post and it has been very helpful; I am looking for chassis temperature for a BD8810

Many thanks for you help on this
