Hi Dave,
175 out of 176 devices is a good sign, however, it looks like some of
your devices are rejecting the OID requests .
After a configuration cycle, zenperfsnmp will query a device for all the
OIDs that are configured against it. If a device fails to respond to
individual OIDs, or gives an error on that OID, it is removed from the
list of OIDs for that device until the next configuration cycle.
When the OID is removed, you get that log message. The collects between
config cycles should be fairly quiet.
Some causes for the failure:
- snmpinformant is not installed on your windows device
- your net-snmp is not configured on your unix device to send all
the OIDs
- your device doesn't really support the OIDs you are requesting
- SELinux is configured on your machine and net-snmp cannot provide
the data
I would look for a trend in the collection: what graphs aren't being
collect, and against what devices?
For example, are they are all windows devices? Are they all from the
same brand of router? Are they all from RedHat Linux machines?
You may want to remove odin and re-add it to see if you can iron out the
situation with it's IP address.

Ok, after combing through the logs I did find the timing message
2006-11-13 14:03:06 INFO zen.zenperfsnmp: collected 175 of 176 devices

2006-11-13 14:03:12 ERROR zen.zenperfsnmp: Device odin is reporting

My question is, should I be getting all those oid error messages? I am
not getting graphs consistently.
If I can supply any other information, or try anything else out, please
give me a shout.

Hi Dave,
If you could check a few things for me:
what is your SNMP cycle time (Monitors- >Performance-
localhost)?
Make sure that the step and heartbeat agree with this number:
$ cd $ZENHOME
$ find . - name *.rrd - print0 | xargs - 0 -- max- lines=1
rrdtool dump |
egrep 'step|heartbeat'
The heartbeat should be 3x the step.
Next, we need to make sure that zenperfsnmp is running through all
it's
devices. Run it with debug output:
$ zenperfsnmp run - v 10 -- cycle
It should stop collecting when it gets to:
INFO: collected 303 of 304 devices in 42.15
If you fail to see this message, or get wild numbers like "2 of 100"
then you know something is failing.
This "reporting more than once" might happen if devices are modeled
under multiple IP addresses, but that's not supposed to happen. We
can
check for things like that if the stuff above checks out.

But what is causing the error of getting more than one report back
from the
device? I have tried re- installing 0.23 from scratch but the
problem still
exists. I have played with zenstep a number of different times, but
I still
cannot get the graphing to work without some sort of gaps in it.
Can I retrograde to 0.22 with the current schema structure or will
that
cause problems?

Dave,
This is most likely the reason for the other errors you are getting
(about minimum update times). The "other" Eric is out for a couple
of days maybe he will have more insight...

I have tried a number of things over the weekend, but none seem to
change the problem I am seeing. Any suggestions would be
appreciated, I am stumped at the moment.
