Novell 6.5 memory graph

[tgreaser]

Hello,
I havent looked hard at making a templete to have cacti graph novell servers memory
usage. I thought id ask before reinventing the wheel.. If anyone has already done so
would you mind sharing your work ?

If no one has done so yet id like to see if anyone would like a copy of the code. Just to give me a little more reason to get this project done sooner..
Thanks..
here is the info i have about novell and memory info

Alloc Memory Pool:
.1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.6.2

Cache Buffers (you need to multiply the returned value by 4096 to get the actual value)...
.1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.6.3

Cache Moveable Memory (you need to multiply the returned value by 4096 to get the actual value)...
.1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.6.4

Cache Non-Moveable Memory (you need to multiply the returned value by 4096 to get the actual value)...
.1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.6.5

Code and Data Memory:
.1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.6.6

Walking the NetWare Server (nwSystem) tree:
.1.3.6.1.4.1.23.2.28.1.

Walking Memory Usage Tree:
.1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.

I'd love to grab a copy of the template when you're done if you don't mind. It would be great to finally get graphs on memory usage. The ones I use on Novell is the default one that comes with Cacti and also one that has a ton of Groupwise stuff.

How do some of those like "Walking the NetWare Server (nwSystem) tree" and "Walking Memory Usage Tree" play a part in memory/RAM usage?

just wanted to show what i had with the walk.. Im not a novell person..and i thought it would be a catch all if i missed something.. ie.. if novell has a special memory pool for something..

working on the templete now.

sorry been very busy .. will play around with this and see what i can come up with ..
just posting this so no one thinks im lazy..

Did this ever materialize?

Hi

i have started with a template to monitor the memory of our netware servers but i has no success with the templates.
If you want help me to get the templates running see the attached files

Hi

I've modified your template using "Get SNMP data" instead of "Get SNMP data - indexed" data input methods. It works, but I"m getting strange value for "cache buffer used" :



I've also seen here that the value must be multiplied by 4096, but that's a lot...

Very nice.

I was working with the included query xml and it got me thinking.

Why try to use an indexed query for the template when we're always going to be querying the same 7 OIDs in every case and the index (hrStorageIndex) contains other items we don't want? Wouldn't it be easy to just use normal snmp data (non indexed) data templates?

*edit* - Looks like someone just beat me to it ^.

I couldn't figure out how you could make this work as an indexed query. I tried and got it pulling the index correctly but selecting multiple memory items created extra data sources relative to the number selected.

Would it possible to make this work as an indexed query by consolidating the data templates down to just 1 with 14 tabs?

Hi fmangeant

I also has changed the Data Template to non indexed. So i has one Data Template for one OID. My idea was to save work with the indexed method. I has seen it at the squid Templates. But this does not work with this OID.

I know this a old thread... but is there any complete package (with xml and readme) for Novell Netware 6.5 server memory graphics.

Thanx for your answer
