    SNMP Timeticks conversion

    Hi,
    I am monitoring a Draytek Vigor 2800. I am trying to monitor the uptime of the router. I use SNMP v2 and a OID of:
    .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.3.0 = Timeticks: (5746280) 15:57:42.80
    This is the sysUpTimeInstance object.

    Zabbix is getting the value 5746280 which equals over 2 month if I use seconds as the unit type (i'm now guessing timeticks != seconds).

    How do I convert timeticks into seconds so I can display an accurate uptime?

    Thanks,
    Garry

      Sorry. They are 100ths of a second so having a multiplier of 0.01 works. Although it's not perfect. I'm getting this: 16h33m6.3300000000017s

      Better than is was though.

          Hi

          Did you find an accurate solution for this? I'm having the same problem on a few of my systems.

              Use Units = uptime

                  Currently my configuration is
                  Type of information : Numeric (Unsigned)
                  Data type : Decimal
                  Units : uptime
                  Custom Multiplier : 0.01

                  This is returning a value of at most 7 days and some hours, but nothing like months...

                          Changed it to float, still getting 7 days, 16:14:14

                          Weird... will play around with it a bit more and see.

                          Thanks for the assistance thus far

                              I found out that the uptime is multiplied by 24. So I set 0.04166666666666666667 for custom multiplier and it is working for me.

                                  How you did it?
                                  Where I put this value ( 0.04166666666666666667 ) ?



                                  I found where put the custom multiplier, but it not work for Me.
                                  My configuration:


                                  zabbix 4.4
                                  type snmpv2
                                  type of information numeric (unsigned)
                                  units uptime

                                  and in preprocessing
                                  custom multiplier 0.04166666666666666667

                                  and my result is it 86 days, 04:47:53

                                  but the hardware have only 2 days in poweron state.
