Hello,

In Centreon there is a Netscaler plugin that monitors the Hardware but it does not provide us with information about memory and CPU consumption.  So we are creating a script to monitor these parameters via SNMP (through the OIDS and snmpwalk). Once assigned, the OIDS indicated by the manufacturer do not appear. We believe that when this happens it is necessary to add the MIBs file.

It is right? And if it is, how should it be done?

 

Thanks

Hi,

Netscaler Plugin has the check cpu, storage and so one

for example

/centreon_netscaler.pl --plugin=network::citrix::netscaler::snmp::plugin --mode=storage --hostname='192.168.1.1' --snmp-version='1' --snmp-community='12345'  --filter-name='' --warning-usage='80' --critical-usage='90' --verbose

 

Storage '/var' Usage Total: 13.88 GB Used: 4.87 GB (35.06%) Free: 9.01 GB (64.94%)


or  CPU

/centreon_netscaler.pl --plugin=network::citrix::netscaler::snmp::plugin --mode=cpu --hostname='192.168.1.1.' --snmp-version='1' --snmp-community='12345'  --warning-usage='80' --critical-usage='90' --verbose

OK: All CPUs are ok | 'cpu_Mgmt CPU'=0.00%;0:80;0:90;0;100 'cpu_Packet CPU 0'=0.00%;0:80;0:90;0;100
CPU 'Mgmt CPU' usage: 0.00 %
CPU 'Packet CPU 0' usage: 0.00 %

Hi,

I'm sorry but I made a mistake, the device is Citrix SDX and not Citrix Netscaler

Hello @carnabil 

This products was renamed from NetScaler to Citrix NetScaler, NetScaler ADC, Citrix ADC and maybe many others names. That’s really trivial 😭

Initialy plugins and plugin packs was named NetScaler MPX8000 and after it was simplified on NetScaler.

As indicated by ahartung NetScaler plugin can provide CPU, Memory and Storage usage for MPX and VPX, docs are really light Netscaler MPX 8000 | Centreon Documentation Citrix Netscaler | Centreon Documentation (The MPX 8000 could be a bug, because the plugins is not provided on EL8 and 22.04)

About ADC SDX the plugins is Citrix SDX centreon-plugins/plugin.pm at master · centreon/centreon-plugins · GitHub Docs about SDX is also light Citrix SDX | Centreon Documentation

MIBS of ADC SDX are downloadable as indicated here How to Obtain SNMP MIB File for NetScaler SDX Appliance (citrix.com) or here https://docs.citrix.com/en-us/sdx/current-release/manage-monitor-appliance-network-configuration/configuring-snmp-trap-destination.html#downloading-mib-files you could see the MIB by command like indicated here visibly : snmpmib - Citrix NetScaler SDX 12.0 Command Reference

I found this MIB online https://mibs.observium.org/mib/SDX-ROOT-MIB 

But maybe you want others metrics ?

And maybe you want that’s https://mibs.observium.org/mib/SDX-ROOT-MIB#netscalerTable

You could also post an issue to centreon-plugins repo Issues · centreon/centreon-plugins · GitHub to have an answer about the mode of Citrix SDX and you could give a ouput of snmpwalk to give result of the others metrics you want.

Regards,

Greg
