I am new to hobbit and as per the description it seems that hobbit can monitor http/https site.

Can It monitor sequence of sites, almost like a simulated Synthetic transaction?

Correct.

No, Hobbit will only do a single http request - not a sequence of requests.

Hullo Henrik,

As i was researching the internet for any knowledge about monitoring using SNMP quering...i saw something like this stated by you "sometime later this year, I'll probably look into adding some SNMP support to Hobbit, in the form of an SNMP module that can query SNMP-enabled devices for status information, thereby integrating support for SNMP devices into Hobbit." so i was wondering...is this SNMP support already added onto hobbit??

Thank you, regards Allen

Hi Allen,

it's being worked on. The current snapshot has some support for collecting SNMP data from network devices (essentially, I wrote it so Hobbit can replace an aging MRTG server we have), but it will be extended so you can use it to collect other types of data and have it fed into hobbit.

Regards, Henrik

Henrik,

Could you please explain a little about the differences of using the SNMP module in hobbit and using DEVMON ?

I'm busy in switching from Big Brother to hobbit and at the same time want to implement the old MRTG graphs of our cisco routers and switches into the hobbit monitoring. Which one should I use, Devmon of your new feature ?

Regards and thanks for the good work of hobbit,

Right now, you should use Devmon. It works, it is - from what I know - a lot more flexible, and it works with a lot of different types of network gear.

There are really just two reasons why I started doing some SNMP tools myself: 1) I was curious to see how it worked, and 2) I am not sure how Devmon would handle the 12.000 network interfaces that I must poll every 5 minutes. It might work just fine, I haven't really looked very much into how Devmon works.

New subject: Hobbit Devmon question / help needed

I downloaded Devmon and have it running just fine.

However, I am having a problem with getting the stats from a Devmon if_load status into rrd. The rrd's never get created. I did do the other parts and since I am creating a tmp file from the extra-rrd.pl, that would indicate that the code is executing !

Here is where I believe the problem is.

...

Code start ------------ #!/usr/bin/perl

Input parameters: Hostname, testname (column), and messagefile

#$HOSTNAME=$ARGV[0]; ; $TESTNAME=$ARGV[1]; ; $FNAME=$ARGV[2]; ; $filename="/tmp/if_log";

Read the entire files

open (FILEHANDLE,$FNAME) || die ("cant read file\n"); @input = <FILEHANDLE>; close (FILEHANDLE);

if ( $TESTNAME eq "if_load") {

       # Analyze the message we got
       open(OUT, ">", $filename);
       print OUT "This is the stuff\n at input";
       foreach $line (@input) {
               if ($line =~ /(^[A-Z].*) (\d+):(\d+)$/ ) {
                       # The RRD dataset definitions
                       print "DS:in:DERIVE:600:0:U\n";
                       print "DS:out:DERIVE:600:0:U\n";

                       # The filename
                       print "if_load_$1.rrd\n";

                       # The data
                       print "$2:$3\n";
               }
       }
    close (OUT);

} Code stop -----------------------

I added some code to create and show what is in the if_load stat in the /tmp/if_log file for debugging.

The /tmp/if_log file I see is:

bash-3.00$ cat /tmp/if_log This is the stuff status INET-7204.if_load green Sun Oct 7 09:29:05 2007

Devmon version 0.3.0-beta2 running on

Here is a copy of the message file from devmon/templates/cisco-7206/if_load

The message file for the device (7206) shows:

<b>Interface error rates:</b> Input load: yellow={ifInLoad.thresh:yellow}%, red={ifInLoad.thresh:red}% Output load: yellow={ifOutLoad.thresh:yellow}%, red={ifOutLoad.thresh:red}% TABLE:rrd(DS:ds0:ifInOctets:COUNTER; DS:ds1:ifOutOctets:COUNTER) Ifc name|Ifc Speed|Rate in (load %)|Rate out (load %) {ifName}{ifAliasBox}|{ifSpeed}|{ifInLoad.color}{ifInSpeed} ({ifInLoad}%){ifInLoa d.errors}|{ifOutLoad.color}{ifOutSpeed} ({ifOutLoad}%){ifOutLoad.errors}

I suspect the message file is wrong? But I have only started this on Friday, so I figured the experts could point me to the right direction.

I've been looking at your message file but can't find anything strange in it. What I did see was that there was no interface informatie in de RRD part of your output.
The RRD file of my output file looks like <!--DEVMON RRD: if_load 0 0 DS:ds0:COUNTER:600:0:U DS:ds1:COUNTER:600:0:U Gi1_1 3631408838:1068715647

Did you correctly identify the ifInOctets and ifOutOctets ?

Hi all, I am trying to read the sysDescr from the snmp device, i wanted to know if i can reach the snmp device via snmp, and whether i am using the correct read only community string. But this is the error i get...any ideas on what am missing out or doing wrong?. TM:/home/hobbit/server/etc # snmpget -v1 -c afol-public TM [10.176.10.69] Error in packet Reason: (noSuchName) There is no such variable name in this MIB. Failed object: SNMPv2-TM::rfc1157Proxy.

To get a response from snmpget you should also enter a objectid.

Your snmpget command should look something like

snmpget -v1 -c afol-public hostname .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1.0

Tom,

the is no RRD inferface information in your html file. Only the definiton of the RRD file, but no actual information. So no information will be send to the rrd file bij the extra-rrd.script.

You have to look at the devmon site for why there is no information.

I downloaded Devmon and have it running just fine.

Here is where I believe the problem is.

...

Code start ------------ #!/usr/bin/perl

Input parameters: Hostname, testname (column), and messagefile

#$HOSTNAME=$ARGV[0]; ; $TESTNAME=$ARGV[1]; ; $FNAME=$ARGV[2]; ; $filename="/tmp/if_log";

Read the entire files

open (FILEHANDLE,$FNAME) || die ("cant read file\n"); @input = <FILEHANDLE>; close (FILEHANDLE);

if ( $TESTNAME eq "if_load") {

       # Analyze the message we got
       open(OUT, ">", $filename);
       print OUT "This is the stuff\n at input";
       foreach $line (@input) {
               if ($line =~ /(^[A-Z].*) (\d+):(\d+)$/ ) {
                       # The RRD dataset definitions
                       print "DS:in:DERIVE:600:0:U\n";
                       print "DS:out:DERIVE:600:0:U\n";

                       # The filename
                       print "if_load_$1.rrd\n";

                       # The data
                       print "$2:$3\n";
               }
       }
    close (OUT);

} Code stop -----------------------

I added some code to create and show what is in the if_load stat in the /tmp/if_log file for debugging.

The /tmp/if_log file I see is:

bash-3.00$ cat /tmp/if_log This is the stuff status INET-7204.if_load green Sun Oct 7 09:29:05 2007

Something I have noticed now is that none of the interfaces in your html start Gi. These are the only interface names that graph for me, im not sure what/where this is specified. Your Se starting ports may be ignored. I know my Fa ports currently are and I only see data sent for Gi ports.

Tom,

the is no RRD inferface information in your html file. Only the definiton of the RRD file, but no actual information. So no information will be send to the rrd file bij the extra-rrd.script.

You have to look at the devmon site for why there is no information.

Regards,

Bert Klomp

Thank you for the information but it still did not give me the RRD detail.

Tom

The following code produces rrd files for me (straight copy and paste):

#!/usr/bin/perl

#Input parameters:Hostname,testname(column),and messagefile $HOSTNAME=$ARGV[0];; $TESTNAME=$ARGV[1];; $FNAME=$ARGV[2];;

#Read the entire files open(FILEHANDLE,$FNAME)||die("can't read file\n"); @input=<FILEHANDLE>; close(FILEHANDLE);

if ( $TESTNAME eq "if_load") {

       # Analyze the message we got
       #open(OUT, ">", $filename);
       foreach $line (@input) {
               if ($line =~ /(^[A-Z].*) (\d+):(\d+)$/ ) {
                       # The RRD dataset definitions
                       print "DS:in:DERIVE:600:0:U\n";

OK,

I have partially solved the problem. I actually found this by accident !!

I was trying to fix the alarm issue and removed the Ge.+ and added Se.+|Fa.+ to the exceptions file under if_load. Now I am getting graphs on the three interfaces (I don't have a Ge* interface on the box) ! My only problem now is that the alarm still doesn't seem to be working, even thought my warning status is set to 50% on the Se interface and it is currently running above 60%.

New subject: [hobbit] Hobbit Devmon question / help needed

I was using the standard message from the Cisco-7206 template. Although in working with the Network team, the box is actually a 7204. I don't know if there would be that much of a difference between the two models. The hobbit screen gives me all the right detail of usage, so I would suspect it is OK. I don't know if there is any difference in the interface type. The two boxes we wanted to start gathering data are DS3. I noticed the message file has ds0 and ds1, but I need to get more information about the message file. I looked at all the doc and could not find much.

Thank you, Tom
