Is my template being created properly? No Graph output

Post by redphive »

Hello,

As I continue to write this I am realizing this is going to serve better to keep track of my progress and hopefully help someone else down the road if I (or the board) finds a solution to this.

I have been following this link as it is close to the problem that I have been having templating a class of device. The device I am trying to build a template for has up to two 'shelves' and a varying number of slots. Each card in any slot has 1 port (for what I am looking at), but the base oids for each snmpwalk aren't postfixed by a nice 1,2,3,... pattern. the pattern is:
<base oid>.<shelf>.<slot>.1.

As all of the walked oids had 1 as the last dotted element, I used REGEX to extract the last 3 dotted elements as the index. So the following is a sample of the snmpwalk output

Code: Select all

hcxStatsUpstreamShelfId (base oid: enterprises.1141.2.32.1.1.1 )
enterprises.1141.2.32.1.1.1.1.6.1 = 1
enterprises.1141.2.32.1.1.1.1.7.1 = 1
enterprises.1141.2.32.1.1.1.1.8.1 = 1
enterprises.1141.2.32.1.1.1.1.9.1 = 1
enterprises.1141.2.32.1.1.1.2.2.1 = 2
enterprises.1141.2.32.1.1.1.2.3.1 = 2
enterprises.1141.2.32.1.1.1.2.7.1 = 2
enterprises.1141.2.32.1.1.1.2.8.1 = 2

hcxStatsUpstreamSlotId (base oid: enterprises.1141.2.32.1.1.2 )
enterprises.1141.2.32.1.1.2.1.6.1 = 6
enterprises.1141.2.32.1.1.2.1.7.1 = 7
enterprises.1141.2.32.1.1.2.1.8.1 = 8
enterprises.1141.2.32.1.1.2.1.9.1 = 9
enterprises.1141.2.32.1.1.2.2.2.1 = 2
enterprises.1141.2.32.1.1.2.2.3.1 = 3
enterprises.1141.2.32.1.1.2.2.7.1 = 7
enterprises.1141.2.32.1.1.2.2.8.1 = 8

hcxStatsUpstreamPortId (base oid: enterprises.1141.2.32.1.1.3 )
enterprises.1141.2.32.1.1.3.1.6.1 = 1
enterprises.1141.2.32.1.1.3.1.7.1 = 1
enterprises.1141.2.32.1.1.3.1.8.1 = 1
enterprises.1141.2.32.1.1.3.1.9.1 = 1
enterprises.1141.2.32.1.1.3.2.2.1 = 1
enterprises.1141.2.32.1.1.3.2.3.1 = 1
enterprises.1141.2.32.1.1.3.2.7.1 = 1
enterprises.1141.2.32.1.1.3.2.8.1 = 1
See attached file below for full walk.

I saw that there was at least a unique return value for each shelf of hcxStatsUpstreamSlotId so I I decided that I will make two data queries, one for shelf 1 and one for shelf 2. Not all devices in this class have two shelves, so knowing that they at least have shelf 1, I went ahead with this.

Code: Select all

<query>
        <name>Com21 Shelf 1 Upstream Statistics</name>
        <description>Queries to get the upstream interface data from a shelf 1 on a Com21 HCX</description>
        <oid_index>.1.3.6.1.4.1.1141.2.32.1.1.2.1</oid_index>
        <oid_index_parse>OID/REGEXP:.*\.([0-9]{1,3}\.[1])$</oid_index_parse>
        <index_order_type>numeric</index_order_type>

        <fields>
                <hcxUsShlf1Index>
                        <name>Index</name>
                        <method>walk</method>
                        <source>value</source>
                        <direction>input</direction>
                        <oid>.1.3.6.1.4.1.1141.2.32.1.1.2.1</oid>
                </hcxUsShlf1Index>
                <hcxUsShlf1RxCells>
                        <name>Rx Cells</name>
                        <method>walk</method>
                        <source>value</source>
                        <direction>input</direction>
                        <oid>.1.3.6.1.4.1.1141.2.32.1.1.10.1</oid>
                </hcxUsShlf1RxCells>
         </fields>
</query>
See attached file for full XML.

Following lvm's excellent help in this thread I proceded to create all of the necessary templates (host, graph, data) and queries (from XML).

The Data Query debug information even looks promising:

Code: Select all

Everything I am looking for seems to be where it should be and the values returned match what I am looking for.

In troubleshooting this, what should my next step be?

Thanks in advance


Some additional information:

Everything else works nicely (generic router/interface stuff, the BGP Statistics template [where is that link...])

Oops, hit again. Please change <direction>input</direction> to <direction>output</direction> to see data. For debugging purpose is may be nice to have it your way. But as you see the data comin out, change it as advised in my HowTo (I _really_ tried to emphasize this fact, but it seems not to be ok, yet)

lvm, thanks for that and I have caught that already. Just working on a couple of other things and I will post a reply that will more than likely be a resolution.

Thanks again for your help on this and other posts. :D
