Can anybody help me with this one?
I have configured three custom pollers in the Orion Universal Device Poller:
- laLoad (1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.10.1.3) - measures the load average of a Unix server in the last minute, the last 5 minutes and the last 15 minutes. Orion reports this as a metric with three values, one value per row.
- rsVPagesIn (1.3.6.1.4.1.42.3.13.9) - measures the number of pages read from disk, one value per row.
- rsVPagesOut (1.3.6.1.4.1.42.3.13.10) - measures the number of pages written to disk, one value per row.
I can graph all of these values on the Orion NPM interface; however, historical queries to laLoad only return NULL values. I only get answers when I select the "Status" column. Consequently, I can't summarize the laLoad values and thus I get a large number of data points per server; much larger than desktop applications such as Excel support ( > 65536 data rows).
For rsVPagesIn and rsVPages out, this does not happen and their values are correctly summarized. Does this happen because Orion NPM does not summarize data unless I use a single OID for each custom poller?
We run Orion NPM 9.1 SP5 here.
TIA,
Zarastro
