Need help with Key entry

[rajan.s.ravi]

Hi,

I need to monitor one of the Cisco units (uses UCSDAVIS SNMP space) and i can't install zabbix agents on it. Hence i am planning to use SNMP queries.

In the items section, i am adding the OID and other stuffs.

But what do i put in the Key ?

As per the manual, we can put anything which makes sense, but once i do it, i goes to unsupported mode.

Pls help.

Regards,
Ravi

Hi,

are you sure you compiled with --with-net-snmp option?


Attached a screen shot

[rajan.s.ravi]

Yes, i have compiled with -net-snmp option.

Following is the error i see in error log

007743:20060727:174435 SNMP error [(noSuchName) There is no such variable name in this MIB.]
007743:20060727:174435 Parameter [memTotalReal] is not supported by agent on host [AVSTest] Old status [0]
007743:20060727:174435 SNMP error in packet. Reason: (noSuchName) There is no such variable name in this MIB.

i try to ask to a cisco system (% cpu use) like that :
-> snmpwalk -v2c -c xxx 64.1.1.5 .1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.109.1.1.1.1.3
-> SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.9.9.109.1.1.1.1.3.1 = Gauge32: 45
work but not in zabbix in log i had :
-> SNMP error in packet. Reason: (noSuchName) There is no such variable name in this MIB.
-> 031120:20061003:145459 SNMP error [(noSuchName) There is no such variable name in this MIB.]
but we try sysname
-> snmpwalk -v2c -c xxx 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.5.0
-> SNMPv2-MIB::sysName.0 = STRING: swi-039.tus.fr.thales

quick comment on getting snmp working on my device

I have a sonicwall firewall with SNMP turned on. I was able to gather about half of the items using the snmp template (the other half didn't work with my device), but there were also a few items outside of the normal snmpwalk under the "enterprises" branch. I was able to find the full OID for them and get the data using "snmpget", but inside zabbix the OID didn't work. I got the same "nosuchname" items in the server log.

So I proceeded to play around with snmpget and eventually figured out that in order to access these "enterprise keys" in zabbix I had to add a .0 to the end of the OID (I also changed the key name to sonicwallCPUkey.0, but I'm not sure if this is necessary). Using snmpwalk/get you can use the OID with or without the .0, but in zabbix it had to be there.

Now I get the data and the error messages are gone.
