  • 1.  Monitoring HACMP Clusters With Cacti

    I have been using the Cacti AIX host template to monitor some LPARS running AIX5.3
    and it has been extremely successful. The problem is, when I try to monitor machines that are running HACMP, I get nothing back at all!
    This is particularly frustrating as the results with non-HACMP LPARS are fantastic.

    Is anyone able to suggest what the problem is with this, or if there is anything I can do to enable monitoring of the HACMP LPARS in the same way?

    Which version of SNMP are you using?

    Depending on the version of HACMP, it may be using SNMPv1. This used to be a requirement.

    On the AIX side, its a "vanilla" install with whatever changes HACMP makes to SNMP. On the Linux (Cacti side), Cacti should be able to cope with either SNMP v1 or v2. It certainly has no problems with the Non-HACMP LPARS.

    I think the changes made by HACMP:

    code
    /etc/snmpd.conf
    smux 1.3.6.1.4.1.2.3.1.2.1.5 "clsmuxpd_password" # HACMP clsmuxpd

    /etc/snmpd.peers
    clsmuxpd 1.3.6.1.4.1.2.3.1.2.1.5 "clsmuxpd_password" # HACMP clsmuxpd
    [/code]

    Are what are causing problems for Cacti.
