Hi,

I deleted Agent from list of resources on one windows workstation. Now i decided that i want to monitor it again.

 

How to add it? it does not shows agent in autodiscovered resources anymore, most likely because it was deleted by hand. Can i somehow to force automatic discovery to run?

ProcessFinder issue with PID and Java process.

$
0
0

Hello everyone,

 

I have an issue with the Java API and the method find of ProcessFinder. I'm want to obtain the PID of a java process, it works very well with the following code :

 

processFinder.find("State.Name.sw=java,Args.*.eq=" + args[0]);

 

With args[0] the comand line option. It return the PID of my java process without any problem. The problem is when the process doesn't exist. In this case, a java process is created with a random pid and I get a value instead of a void return.

 

However, when I'm using the sigar.jar in command line and when I try to identify a process that doesn't exist ( ps "State.Name.sw=java,Args.*.ct=QWERTY") it return nothing. It's what I want, nothing if the process doesn't exist !

 

When I'm using the same code to obtain a non-java process, this problem doesn't exist, I get my void return if the process doesn't exist.

 

Any idea ? I'm working on Windows xp 32b with sigar 1.6.4.

Is there any way that any application runing at Amazon Cloud can be moved to Vmware infra using vFabric etc? If yes, then how does Vmware platform will recognize the applications extensions which was hosted at Amazon cloud?

How to receive/show SNMP trap and create alert/notification using them in vFabric Hyperic 5.0

$
0
0

We are trying to use Hyperic to monitor our ESB, and have set up two boxes (VMs):
- Box A is the ESB.  It is Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.9 (Tikanga) (Kernel 2.6.18).
- Box B is the Monitoring solution.  It runs MS Windows Server 2008 R2 and have Hyperic HQ Enterprise Server and Agent, both v.5.0 installed on this box.  We have also installed a trap receiver (some free tool) to look into the traffic.

 

Steps performed:
1. We configured Hyperic using this document: http://pubs.vmware.com/vfabric5/index.jsp?topic=/com.vmware.vfabric.hyperic.4.6/Configuring_Hyperic_as_an_SNMP_Trap_Receiver.html.
2. The Linux box (box A) has been added as a “network device”.
3. The SMNP community string has been verified.
4. snmpTrapReceiver.listenAddress=udp:0.0.0.0/162 has been added in the config file agent.properties.
5. After the setup, we can see that the port 162 is open by java.exe.  We assume that this proves that the Agent should receive SNMP TRAPs.
6. The Trap Receiver has been configured to receive SNMP messages to the port 163.
7. Layer 7 SecureSpan Gateway sent a series of messages, and confirmed that the same number of packages was received by both port 162 on java.exe and port 163 by the Trap Receiver.

 

Questions:
1. How do we verify that the connection between Hyperic Server and Agent is working properly and Hyperic Server receives the information (SNMP TRAPs) sent from the ESB.
2. How do we present this information on the Hyperic Server Web Console?

hq tracking events/logs below highest set

$

Hi,

 

Setup: Hyperic HQ Server 4.6.6 and Agent 4.6.6 on a Solaris 11 Virtual Machine.
Issue: The Event/Logs Tracking for a process is showing all logs/events and not the specific logs/events which I set the configuration to filter.
My Configuration Properties for the process are:
service.log_track.level = Error
service.log_track.files = /path/to/log/file/log.out
service.log_track.enable = true
The process I am monitoring is a simple java application which logs log4j messages to a log.out file.
The messages look like:
0    [main] WARN  app.App  - Sample warn message
I expect that in the Monitor view i should only be seeing log levels of Error and above.  However the tracking view is showing Warn, Info, Debug also.
Any advice on how I can configure hq to only track Error events for this service.
Thank you

monitor a Microsoft SQL cluster

Anybody use Hyperic to monitor a two node Microsoft SQL cluster?  I've installed the Hyperic Agent (5.8.0) onto the two nodes but the Agent has no awareness of what is clustered.  If there is a failover alarms on disks missing or the SQL service being down fly.  They I reconfigure the agents and the next time the failover occurs it happens all over again.  It's not maintainable in an environment where there are clusters.

Nagios, Hyperic, and vCops

$

Good afternoon,

 

I don't know a lot about the integration between Nagios and Hyperic.  From what I'm reading when you install the Hyperic agent onto a server with Nagios installed it will be able to pull information from what Nagios is monitoring into Hyperic.  From Hyperic you can view quality of service and create alarms based on the Nagios monitoring.  Can this information that has been pulled into Hyperic be viewed in vCOPS?

Hyperic Windows Event Logs Alerting

$

Hello.

 

Trying to setup Alert definitions based on Windows Event IDs. All good everything works fine except  that the alert  is generated totally random. I can see that the events are collected in the Event Center but it doesn`t always generates an alert for the same Event it was created. In the Alert condition set I did not checked "Generate one alert and then disable alert definition until fixed" so every time the condition is met an alert should generate. Sometimes it generates one sometimes it  doesn`t.

 

Anyone had this issue?

Thanks.

Dynamic Service Type plugin methods not invoked

$

I'm working on a Dynamic Service Type plugin for 5.8.2 using the guidance in vFabric Hyperic Product Plug-in Development v.5.7 and while my plugin gets instantiated, none of the expected methods (discoverServiceTypes, and discoverServices) are invoked.

 

I've set up the agent such that the jvm waits for a debug connection from eclipse before proceeding so I can debug it. Further, it appears from inspecting the 5.8.2.2 source code that the plugin must specify the measurement-class, control-class, and template properties.

 

Can anyone offer suggestions about what might be going on, or where I should look for further details?

 

This is kind of an odd plugin in that it receives metric data on a server socket, and intends to create the service instance and metric details from its own inventory.

 

hq-plugin.xml isn't very big, so it's appended.

Filesystem mount "No metric data available"

$
0
0

Recently added new san disks to a server and upresented the old ones.  They are from the same san, new ones are just faster.  HQ sees the new disks but I can't get any throughput metric data for filesystem mount or the "Disk Service Time" from the utilization group.  All the things I'm dying to know after moving the storage.

 

I've restarted the agent, reinstalled the agent, installed lastest agent version, reenabled the metrics for 5 minute intervals at the filesystem mount level and on each of the individual mount points.  I also deleted the old disks from the inventory.  Four of the mount points are new disks on previously existing mount points.  Two disks are new and have mount points that did not previously exist.  I can see this data for the local boot disk (not on the san).

 

I don't see any errors in the agent.log or server.log regarding the collection of the additional metrics.  The additional metrics were working for the old disks prior to adding new ones.  Hq server is open source version 5.0.0 on windows 2008r2.  Hq agent's I've have tried are 5.0.0, 5.8.1, 4.6.6.  Agent is running on solaris 10 on sparc server.  Filesystem's are all ufs.

 

Any ideas on getting these throughput metrics going?

Changing resorce view back to default

Somehow I have changed the view under resources to this from the default view. I have looked and can't find where to chage it back. It is 5.8.3

 

Has anyone used the Nagios plugin with Hyperic 5.8?

$

I know vmware removed it from 5.8 but it's a pretty useful plugin.

I extracted the jar from hyperic 5.7 and installed it in 5.8 however i'm only getting availability for the nagios server.

 

It's not pulling my nagios checks even thought it sees the cfg file.
