Thanks, Jeremy, didn't realise they were still using it... You'd think they'd rename it or something after, what, 10-15 years?

As HP bought out Compaq, they inherited and recycled the Compaq OIDs. These are the correct OIDs you're looking for.

Compaq? From your hostname, it is an HP server? I haven't used DEVMON, I just write my own scripts as we only rarely use SNMP,  ...but... you probably need to substitute that OID for something more relevant. In my experience, just walking an SNMP tree doesn't go far w/o the 'proprietary' MIBs. See if you can find something relevant from the manufacturer and either install it on the DEVMON server (or read the thing) and work out using walks as to where the OIDs of interest are.


This is one reason why I don't use DEVMON... 😉


Hope that helps. Cheers, Phil

Hi all

We're using DEVMON with Xymon to monitor a bunch of hosts, mostly Linux with some Windows.  Windows 2008R2 works fine but I've found that the 2012R2 (don't have any 2012) hosts don't work.

For example, for the RAID test I get:
Missing repeater data for primary OID logDrvIndex
Missing repeater data for primary OID phyDrvIndex

When running snmpwalk manually, I get
snmpwalk -v2c -c hpscada srv2012 1.3.6.1.4.1.232.3.2.3.1.1.2
CPQHOST-MIB::compaq.3.2.3.1.1.2 = No more variables left in this MIB View (It is past the end of the MIB tree)

When doing the same on a 2008R2 server I get:
snmpwalk -v2c -c hpscada srv2008 1.3.6.1.4.1.232.3.2.3.1.1.2
CPQHOST-MIB::compaq.3.2.3.1.1.2.0.1 = INTEGER: 1

Any ideas on this?

Thanks

CC
