Alteon Application Switch 2208 templates

[guitou]

Ok Gandalf, sorry for this, i'm currently running 0.8.6j. I'll try to upgade my version and give you a feed back asap

Cacti Version - 0.8.6j
Plugin Architecture - 1.1
Poller Type - CMD.php
Server Info - Windows NT 5.2
Web Server - Apache/2.0.55 (Win32) PHP/5.2.1
PHP - 5.2.1
PHP Extensions - bcmath, calendar, com_dotnet, ctype, session, filter, ftp, hash, iconv, json, odbc, pcre, Reflection, date, libxml, standard, tokenizer, zlib, SimpleXML, dom, SPL, wddx, xml, xmlreader, xmlwriter, apache2handler, gd, mysql, snmp, sockets
MySQL - 5.0.37-community-nt
RRDTool - 1.2.15

Plugins

• Global Plugin Settings (settings - v0.2)
  Thresholds (thold - v0.3.5.2)
  Device Monitoring (monitor - v0.7)
  Network Tools (tools - v0.2)

There are two OID for Real server session:
- slbStatRServerCurrSessions .1.3.6.1.4.1.1872.2.5.4.2.2.1.2 type gauge,
- slbStatRServerTotalSessions .1.3.6.1.4.1.1872.2.5.4.2.2.1.3 type counter
With the first you can graph the number of current running sessions, with the second you can graph the number of sessions created per second.
You can merge all this OID for Real Server in one xml file and then make one Data Query for all Real Server graphs (just watch for matching my variables names to your graphs)
My personal host template (in french, sorry) contain the folowings dataqueries:

• 1) Alteon - Real Server
  2) Alteon - Virtual Server
  3) SNMP - Interface Statistics

With them you can create the following graphs:

• Alteon - Real Server Current Sessions
  Alteon - Real Server Failures
  Alteon - Real Server Session Creations
  Alteon - Real Server Traffic
  Alteon - Virtual Server Current Sessions
  Alteon - Virtual Server http headers (seems not to work)
  Alteon - Virtual Server Sessions creation
  Alteon - Virtual Server Traffic

I have tested this on Alteon 2208 and 2208E

[malicorne]

There was a little bug in my data query "Alteon Real server" (bad Associated Graph Templates "failure"), so i have reexport my personal host template and post it there

On user request, please find attached all resources for Alteon 2208 Loadbalancer. Export was done using Cacti 087b, so you will require at least this version.
RECOMMENDATION:
When applying this Host Template to a Device, all Data Quries will use reindex method = "Uptime goes Backwards". In most cases, this is not required. So you will have to delete the Data Queries again and re-apply them again one-by-one using reindex method = "Index Count Changed". A feature to automate this will not be available until Cacti088, sorry

Hi,

I am able to set cacti Version 0.8.7c properly but i get only In traffic in Virtual Server Traffic Graph. How can i get Virtual Server Out traffic also?

[zgamer]

I've had problems getting the virtual servers to show up correctly. The real servers in octets and bps do show up correctly.

[zorme]

is the problem "Unmet Dependency" when imported templates is resolved?

thanks

Sorry for my english ..
