So I dug deeper into the docs today to see what I could do for adding some basic port monitoring (eg, Oracle's listener on tcp 1521 and sshd on 22).
Reference: http://www.zenoss.com/community/docs/zenoss-guide/2.1.1/ch11s02.html This page is a wee bit sparse, but I think I've managed to extrapolate the intent. :) After rooting around, I discovered that ports 1521 and 22 have already been defined deeper down. But there are a handful of custom services on non-standard ports that I've added as well. I put those under: /Services/IpService/MyStuff just to keep it separate from everything else. For now, anyway. Shortly after creating the new checks, I half-expected (per the docs) to see those start to populate with devices being monitored. No such luck, so I completely restarted Zenoss. It's been at least a couple hours now, and still nothing. As for the port 1521 stuff, that's there of course. It had a different definition so I renamed it to something more meaningful. But at least it had the appropriate devices listed under it. As for the port 22 stuff, still nothing. Which is odd, because that's been around since the first system I started monitoring. And yes, I've flipped the Monitor option on all the above from False to True. Hours ago. I went into one of the devices, clicked on OS, then under IP Services clicked Add IpService, set it to TCP, started typing 'ssh' which of course auto-completed, clicked on that, then saw it had been added to that host. I drilled into it and clicked on the Service Class (per the docs) and found that only the host I'd just added plus one other host (the very first host in Zenoss that I started monitoring, aside from the Zenoss server itself). So what am I missing here? How do I get Zenoss to wake up and actually check devices for services which I'm basically saying "Yes, I want these ports monitored" on? The docs seem to imply this is automatic. You define the service you're interested in, and voom, Zenoss does the rest. Where have I mis-stepped? -------------------- m2f -------------------- Read this topic online here: http://community.zenoss.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=16700#16700 -------------------- m2f -------------------- _______________________________________________ zenoss-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.zenoss.org/mailman/listinfo/zenoss-users
