Basic SMNP output -> Cacti input question.

Post by venquessa »

Hello,

How do I get an SMNP output like:

TP:10 TN:547 FP:3 FN:29 SC:0 NC:8

To be parsed via a Data Template?

I've managed it many a time with script output, but I can't seem to get it to work with SNMP data fetched from an OID.

I remember getting round this before by creating a script to call snmp with an OID as argument, but is there a way to get multi-data sources from the single OID parsed.

Thanks
Paul

Something like?

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash

host=$1
oid=$2

snmpget -c public -v 2c $1 $2 | sed "s/.*STRING: //"
Well it works :)

Thanks

Paul
