Hi.

U get current error because this computed attribute CurentUtilization is propagated from Instrumentation CPU_Performance_ .

If u created Instrumentation class for CPU monitoring, so should refine CurentUtilization field in Instrumentation class

For example:

interface CPU_Performance_xAcmePacket : Processor_Performance

{

          instrument SNMP {

                    CpuUtil = ".1.3.6.1.4.1.9148.3.2.1.1.1"

          };

          readonly instrumented attribute int CpuUtil

          "Percentage of CPU utilization";

          refine computed CurrentUtilization

          = CpuUtil;

}

Hello

I would suggest to create a separate class and attribute with dynamic modeling.

interface Processor_Fault_ _ :Processor_Fault

{

  stored attribute float _Value ''some help text goes here" = 0;

  refine computed CurrentValue '''some help tet goes here' = _Value;

}

Compile it with dynmodel and reload APM.

Like that you can set the value of the Processor.

dmctl -s > put Processor_Fault_ _ :: :: _Value 10

I haven't tried it but I would do it like that.

Hi All,

It seems that you are both telling me the same thing and I understand what you are explaining but I think that it has just opened up another question.

I have set up this new class, Dunc_Performance based on the Processor_Performance class and compiled it without any errors. When I start the APM domain I see the interface being created correctly.

What do I need to do to the oid2type_Field file to make it reference this new class?

I have made the following change and restarted the domain but I still don't see any references to my new class.

INSTRUMENTATION:

Environment                 = Dunc:DeviceID

Sorry if these are basic questions but the documentation is far from comprehensive.

Thanks in advance,

Duncan

Hi Duncan, can u provide the code of model where u create CPU_Performance_Alaxala6300 class?

Hi,

Thanks for that help,

Here is the oid2type_Field section:

.1.3.6.1.4.1.21839.1.2.8 {

    TYPE = Switch

    VENDOR = Alaxala

    CERTIFICATION = TEMPLATE

    CONT = Alaxala-6300

    VLAN = Dot1q

INSTRUMENTATION:

    Environment                 = Alaxala6300:DeviceID

    Interface-Fault             = MIB2

    Interface-Performance       = MIB2

    Port-Fault                  = MIB2

    Port-Performance            = MIB2

    Port-Ethernet-Performance   = dot3_Ethernet   

}

From your example above, I will change the class to CPU_Performance_Alaxala6300

Thanks again,

Best Regards,

Duncan

Hi!

1) Monitoring of processor is not in Environment INSTRUMENTATION  section, use "CPU/Memory" section

2) Rename your class, it should be like "CPU_Performance_Dunc" inherited from "Processor_Performance"

Please post code of oid2Type section and model.

Hi,

Here is the mdl file:

[root@smartsdemo model]# more DD-Devices.mdl

interface Alaxala6300_Performance:Processor_Performance

{

        instrument SNMP {

        cpuUtil="1.3.6.1.4.1.21839.2.2.8.2.2.1.1.16.1"

        };

        readonly instrumented attribute int cpuUtil

        "Percentage of CPU Utilisation";

        refine computed CurrentUtilization

        = cpuUtil;

}

[root@smartsdemo model]# vi DD-Devices.mdl

When starting up, this is seen in the log file:

[11-Oct-2011 11:29:22 AM+825ms BST] t@-175203440 LDM file processing #1

DYN-W-CLASS_DEFINITION_CREATED- Interface CPU_Performance_Alaxala6300 created

    from DD-Devices.mdl:2

Querying the device using the oid above gives:

[root@smartsdemo logs]# sm_snmp -d 10.2.0.178 walk .1.3.6.1.4.1.21839.2.2.8.2.2.1.1.16.1

SNMP Walk MIB starting at .1.3.6.1.4.1.21839.2.2.8.2.2.1.1.16.1

.1.3.6.1.4.1.21839.2.2.8.2.2.1.1.16.1.1 = 98

.1.3.6.1.4.1.21839.2.2.8.2.2.1.1.16.1.2 = -1

Thanks again,

Duncan

Hi,

Thanks a lot for that, it now works wonderfully.

Best Regards,

Duncan
