HP Networking device statistics

[JamoSS]

Hey all cacti and HPN users,

I´ve seen couple of posts regarding HP Networking device templates:
http://forums.cacti.net/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=43632
http://forums.cacti.net/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=50586

And proposed template is not very scalable, since the fact is that f.ex. OID for CPU usage is not the same for A5500 and A5120 switches.

I have created new data query that is using indexed snmp data. This has been tested against following models:
Switches:
A5500-EI
A5120-EI
A7502
A5900AF

Routers:
A-MSR50-40
A-MSR30-10
A-MSR20-21
A6604

Keypoint here is that "DeviceID" is changing between the models. I have used OID .1.3.6.1.4.1.25506.2.3.1.3.3.1.2 (hh3cSysReloadEntity) to identify the DeviceID and then fetching OID .1.3.6.1.2.1.47.1.1.1.1.7 (entPhysicalName) to get a name for it. When query has been made CPU, Memory and Temperature graphs can be created by enabling the graph for the matching number of DeviceID (hh3cSysReloadEntity).

For above mentioned HW models here are DeviceID´s and matching name for them:
Switches:
A5500-EI DeviceID "65" entPhysicalName "Board"
A5120-EI DeviceID "30" entPhysicalName "Board"
A7502 DeviceID "42" entPhysicalName "Master Board 0"

A5900AF:
IRF stack with 4 switches:
IRF member 1 DeviceID "112" entPhysicalName "Board"
IRF member 2 DeviceID "122" entPhysicalName "Board"
IRF member 3 DeviceID "132" entPhysicalName "Board"
IRF member 4 DeviceID "142" entPhysicalName "Board"

Routers:
A-MSR50-40 DeviceID "3" entPhysicalName "Module Level1"
A-MSR30-10 DeviceID "3" entPhysicalName "Module Level1"
A-MSR20-21 DeviceID "3" entPhysicalName "Module Level1"
A6604 DeviceID "18" entPhysicalName "Level1 Module 0"

OIDs that have been used in that query file are:
hh3cSysReloadEntity = .1.3.6.1.4.1.25506.2.3.1.3.3.1.2
entPhysicalChildIndex = .1.3.6.1.2.1.47.1.3.3.1.1
entPhysicalName = .1.3.6.1.2.1.47.1.1.1.1.7
hh3cEntityExtCpuUsage = .1.3.6.1.4.1.25506.2.6.1.1.1.1.6
hh3cEntityExtMemUsage = .1.3.6.1.4.1.25506.2.6.1.1.1.1.8
hh3cEntityExtMemSize = .1.3.6.1.4.1.25506.2.6.1.1.1.1.10
hh3cEntityExtTemperature = .1.3.6.1.4.1.25506.2.6.1.1.1.1.12

For other models, simply snmpwalk the device with OID hh3cSysReloadEntity and check the name for it with entPhysicalName. As can be seen above, even the name is changing between models quite a lot.

I know this is not the ideal way to do this, but this is doing the needed work.

Attached is the data query and host template xml files. Host template doesn´t include interface statistics, so this needs to be added after importing.

Hi Jamo,

Thanks for this work!

I have some issue when i try to include this template.
I'm using version 0.8.7c of Cacti (in CactiEZ bundle version).

I have modified the hash of the host template file to match the good version.

I successfully imported the host template.

The problem is that when i try to use this template on a device, i have an error in data query.

Data Query [HPN - System Statistics]
Error in data query.

Have you heard about something like this?

Tanks a lot

Hi remyronsse,

At least I found one mistake in my host template. It is pointing to Data Query called "hpn_switch_system_stats.xml". And the file I have attached here is called "hpn_system_stats.xml". Can you check if renaming this data query file will fix the issue?

I will also double check attached files and get them fixed. Problem most likely was caused because I was playing around between our lab and production Cacti setups, and this file is named differently between those.

Cheers,
Jamo

Data query file is now renamed and should be working.

Hello, ( i'm french so my english is poor !!)

I've correctly installed the templates, and i can create without eror in data source the CPU usage ans Temp.
The probleme is that the CPU usage is always at 0 ( in reality 4% )
The temp is always full 16bit var : 65535 °

I think it's probably that i'm on version 7.1.045P11 for the OS of swith.

My model of switch in my IRF of 6 switch are :
- 3 HP 5900AF-48XG-4QSFP+ Switch with 2 Processors
and
- 3 HP 5900AF-48XGT-4QSFP+ Switch with 2 Processors

For the moment i browse the OIDS to find what's wrong ....

If you are encontred this problem and solved it, you're welcome to help me.

If i found the probleme i will make a new post ...

Thanks to all ...

Hi Protor,

As I posted in my first message that 5900AF switch should work if you select the graph to be created for "Board" which is the index numbers 112, 122, 132 and 142 for 4 switch IRF stack. Are you saying using "Board" as physical name is not working for you?

On the other hand, I have noticed that HP 5830AF-96G Switch (JC694A) with 4 switch IRF stack behaves a bit differently. For this model, CPU and Memory graphs can be created by selecting "Level 1 Module 1" as physical name. But this does not work for temperature graph, because it seems this does not provide the temperature value. Instead, to get temperature graphed one or all of the "Sensor1" through "Sensor4" needs to be selected as physical name. I have not searched though on which location or side each sensor is located on the switch motherboard.

Hi Jamo,

I was on hollydays the 2 last week
Thank you for your reply.

Yes, i found how to graph the temp via the SENSOR. ( 3 Sensor on 5900 XGT and 2 for 5900 XG )

Yes i graph the 112 for board temp : 118 and 119 for CPU temp on 5900 XG

I try to found how to graph CPU utilisation and Memory.
I see PSU but don't graph anything good

I'm going to try graph "SubCard" --> i tell you after --> file system probably ( i hope that is memory )

I see the Fan but we aven't the graph template for --> i think is for speed of FAN

There is lot of OID, so I try each one to find the good ONE.

best regards
Protor

Hi there,

I just installed a HP 5500El and i would like to have CPU usage and Memory usage. So i'm in the right thread i think

Problem that for me it's doens't work. I imported template, but it dont showing anything. What i missed ? Can you explain in detail the process to have it ?

Thanks a lot !

This template looks a bit more sophisticated but here's also my simple try of the same thing http://forums.cacti.net/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=52067

Hello,

This template works great for HP 5900, thanks a lot.
But, when i try to do the same operations in my HP 5700, i have no 0 items.

You can see it on screenshots.

The SNMP walk on OID .1.3.6.1.2.1.47.1.3.3.1.1 and .1.3.6.1.2.1.47.1.1.1.1.7 return 0 results.
This OID is maybe different on HP 5700 ?

edit : It's same OID on HP 5900 and HP 5700
