AS400 Template

[bacchus21]

Hello, Members

I'm trying to add IBM AS400 system to add our CACTI server to monitor the system as well as to gather SNMP data. Does anyone know where to get the templates or anyone has exerience to create the templates? Please share your experience/knowledge if any. Thank you in advance.

Run a snmpwalk of the entire device and upload it here as a TGZ. I'll take a peak and let you know what you might be able to use.

Hello, @TheWitness

Sorry for my late response and thank you very much for pay attention to this question.

I ran snmpwalk on some of my devices and attached the output. Replaced domain name as well as server name just in case.

Please take a look and leave me comments/advice. That will be highly appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

This is a pretty generic SNMP Agent. My suggestion is that you do the following:

1) Goto Console > Templates > Device
2) Select the Windows Template
3) From the Drop Down select "Duplicate" and press "Go"
4) Name it "AS400 Device"
5) Create your Graphs using this template.

Since it support 64bit network statistics, you can use snmpv2 and 64bit graphs. Since it support the Host Resource MIB, you should be able to monitor:

CPU Utilization
Disk Utilization which should include Memory, Virtual Memory, and the various mount points.
Processes and Login Users

It's not too much, but it's better than zero. Also, since it does include the HOST RESOURCES MIB, you could also monitor it using the HMIB plugin.
