template for windows with 8G memory using snmp informant ?

Post by solar2k »

Hi,
I tried to graph memory usage in a windows 2003 server with 8G memory. I installed SNMP Informant standard, and are using the template from http://forums.cacti.net/about8165-0-asc-15.html

Seems Snmp Informat is using Gauge32, so when the memory is over 4G, the result is not right by snmpget from memoryAvailableBytes.

--standard(1.3.6.1.4.1.9600.1.1)
|

+--memory(2)
| |
| +-- r-n Gauge32 memoryAvailableBytes(1)
| +-- r-n Gauge32 memoryAvailableKBytes(2)
| +-- r-n Gauge32 memoryAvailableMBytes(3)
| +-- r-n Gauge32 memoryCommittedBytes(4)
| +-- r-n Gauge32 memoryCacheBytes(5)

For example, for a server has over 4G available memory, the following result is not right.

$ snmpget -v 2c -c public 10.1.*.* 1.3.6.1.4.1.9600.1.1.2.1.0

SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.9600.1.1.2.1.0 = Gauge32: 3409088512

It should be 7522996 KBytes.
$ snmpget -v 2c -c public 10.1.3.167 1.3.6.1.4.1.9600.1.1.2.2.0
SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.9600.1.1.2.2.0 = Gauge32: 7522996

I tried to change some CDEF in the template from http://forums.cacti.net/about8165-0-asc-15.html , but without success,
anyone has the same issue or has a better template?
Thanks.

Hi,

use the original windows host template delivered with cacti - no problems with servers running up to 16 GB......

That is really only meant for linux boxes.

Report this bug to the snmp-informant people so they can fix it. Until then, you can use a WMI memory script -- there are several on the forum.
