Wrong or missing values in summary

Hi,

we use cricket v1.0.5 and moved the installation from an Debian Sarge to
an Debian Etch server. Both servers are running on amd64 architecture.
After moving all files (config, cricket-data, source) there is the
problem, that we get wrong current values in summary. If I remove the
corresponding rrd file, the current values in newly created graph are
correct, but the maximum value is missing. The generated png files are
correct all time.

I guess, the problem is caused by a wrong section in RRD/Format.pm. Our
values there are the following:

--- snip ---
        $self->{'statHead'} = "a4 a5 x7 d Q Q Q x80";
        $self->{'dsDef'} = "a20 a20 Q d d x56";
        $self->{'rraDef'} = "a20 x4 Q Q d x72";
        $self->{'liveHead'} = "Q Q";
        $self->{'liveHead3'} = "Q Q";
        $self->{'pdpDef'} = "a30 x2 Q d x64";
        $self->{'cdpDef'} = "d Q x64";
        $self->{'rraPtr'} = "Q";
        $self->{'element'} = "d";
--- snap ---

Can anybody tell me, whether these entries are right or not? If they are
correct, I need another possible explanation for this issue and a way to
fix this.

Thank you in advance.

instance mapping fails

Hi,

i do have some miscellaneous problems concerning instance mapping on a
Nortel switch.

Some configuration details (v1.0.5) ...

Target  --default--
    inst                =   map(interface-name)

datasource ifInErrors
    ds-source   =   snmp://%snmp%/ifInErrors.%inst%

target INT1
        interface-name    =    INT1
        short-description =    "INT1"

target INT2
        interface-name    =    INT2
        short-description =    "INT2"

Default OIDs are used.

If instance mapping runs automatically than INT1 returns ID 137 instead
of 129. If I definde inst=129 manually it works.
Collecting data manually via snmp is also working. Nothing noticable.

Does anyone has an idea where the wrong instance id could occure?

Tx

Try doing an snmpwalk on the OID for IfDescr and see if instances 129
and 137 are duplicate names.

$ snmpwalk -v 2c -c <whatever> <switch address> <OID>

Received SNMP response with error code noSuchName. OID: 1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.6.155

Hi,

I built cricket with version 1.0.5 on solaris 2.9. It works with my own perl script to collect data from
counters with 64 bits on cisco routers. When I issue a manual command of :
snmpget -v 2c -c xxxx xxxxxxxx 1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.6.155 
I get a correct output:
IF-MIB::ifHCInOctets.155 = Counter64: 1575225528121462

But when I use the collector I get for all my devices the error of:
Received SNMP response with error code noSuchName. OID: 1.3.6.1.2.1.31.1.1.1.6.155

I do not know if it matter, but I tried both snmp version setting of 2 and 2c in my Default file with no difference:
snmp-version = 2c
  and 
snmp-version = 2

I searched and could not identify what I am doing wrong.

Thanks in advance for your help in pointing me into the right direction.

No response from network element

This one has me stumped. I get this
No response from "MDR-IP20e" [10.72.0.155].161

but if I do a 
/usr/local/bin/snmpwalk -v2c -c xxxxx MDR-IP20e:161 ifDescr
I get a reply. The community is the same as in the nearest Defaults file
and works for other nodes (in a differant part of the network).
This network element is behind a firewall and the only thing I can think
of is that Cricket does something else to test connectivity 1st (but I
can't find any mention in the documentation).

Anyone got any ideas on what this could be?

Cheers
Wayne

Re: how we can stop cricket messages

Hi Neno,

Could you be a little bit more specific?

OS,  cricket version you are using, filenames of the files that grow, ...

Br,
  Oliver

Help with Defaults file and QoS stats collection from a router

Hi
I am new to the user group .... and configuring Cricket.

I am trying to add QoS stats from Cisco routers and getting the following error from the collector.

[27-Aug-2008 07:56:05 ] Starting collector: Cricket version 1.0.4 (2003-11-22)
[27-Aug-2008 07:56:07*] No ds tag found for target type cisco-generic-router.
[27-Aug-2008 07:56:07*] No ds tag found for target type device-traffic.
[27-Aug-2008 07:56:07*] No ds tag found for target type cisco-cbwfq-qos.

I am assuming this is because my Default file has no info about these collections, OID's and does not have a
data source defined.
Anyone have any idea what these values need to be and what my Default file should look like ?

Thanks
Tim

Re: Help with Defaults file and QoS stats collection from a router

Hello Tim,

Try to use genDevConfig to generate your QoS statistics. This should 
give you quote a bit of information.

genDevcConfig is a utility that will generate the config tree for you. 
It includes all the necessary Default files for you.

This should cover the basic stuff such as CAR and more advanced stats 
for class based QoS. To get more accurate stats you should run periodic 
NBAR on your routers or export the netflow data from it or even run 
sniffer/ntop.

Cheers
