In response to the infrastructure needs of our company's service, I've created a small API that sends SNMP queries to InterSystems to visualize relevant data for retrieval when the infrastructure implements monitoring.
However, I'm experiencing a timeout issue when attempting to collect information using an SNMP walk. Here is the code for my API's SNMP service:
Since most of our customers moved to Caché 2015.1, some admins became abused with CPUPct warnings (sometimes alerts) in console log without other signs of lacking CPU power. Documentation states that:
I'm looking to set up monitoring for several interfaces. I understand that I can set an Inactivity Timeout. However, obviously there are messages coming through more frequently during certain hours than other hours.
Is there a way to set an Inactivity Timeout for each hour of the day instead of one value that is used all day long?
I believe most of you have encounted this problem: a healthconnect/ensemble user get a slow response and ask measurement on how long it takes ensmeble to process this request, the ensemble 'activity data' gives no clue of the delay.
The reason is HealthConnect message measurement was based on ensemble message, which can’t give a correct answer on when ensmeble recevie the request and what time it send back response. when there is delay on inbound/outbound adpter, or csp gateway, there is no way to find out the delay from "activity data" .
In the Business Operation, how do we get to know which source is currently sending primary request if there are multiple requests coming at the same time?
Hi I would like to follow any change made in the production IE - date,time, user,production,service/process/operation - name, item changed, value before change, value after change. Is there a way I can get this data & trap the act of change in order to log this data. Thanks Simcha
I've setup ODBC connection so I can access Cache data within SQL Server.
I want to be able to write SQL queries for internal monitoring purposes, similar to what's possible with SQL Server. Specifically I want to be able to check mirroring status (i.e. check which is the current primary mirror member), check the status of any Ensemble productions (started/stopped), check the status of business hosts etc. I want to do all of this from SQL Server to go with our other system monitoring solutions.
UPDATE: It turns out it was just me being a dummy, and the snmpd was correctly telling me there is no value associated with that exact key. I should have used snmpwalk instead of snmpget to display the whole tree.

Hello! I'm trying to set up SNMP monitoring on Caché, using documentation and this article
I built a monitoring system in Grafana using the IRIS API /api/monitor/metrics (reading with Prometheus) but I noticed that the RAM usage shown was below that shown by the operating system. I installed the Zabbix agent and the usage values were higher, but with a line with the same highs and lows but shifted.
I want to create a dashboard with a line graph that shows system availability over time. I used this code to create a Dashboard:
Set tItem = ##class(%DeepSee.UserLibrary.Link).%New()
Set tItem.fullName = "Availability"
Set tPage = "Availability.UI.CSVImport.zen"
Set tItem.href = $system.CSP.GetPortalApp($namespace,tPage)_tPage
Set tItem.title = "Availability"
Set tSC = tItem.%Save()
after updating from 2018.2.1 to 2021.1 we observe a change in the behaviour of the Messagebank Enterprise Monitor.
In 2018.2.1, when clicking on a specific line inside the configured systems the system dashboard opened, giving insights about queue counts and error conditions.
At the Global Summit several folks had mention that they developed their own production monitor. I am looking to create a monitor similar to eGate that we only display those Services/Processes/Operations that are in trouble, and those Errors that are showing up in the Event Log. Does anyone have any examples of this?
Is it possible to dynamically adjust the RetryInterval andFailureTimeout settings in a BPL?
I've got a business process that calls a web service operation to get a session ID from an external system. There is a string property returned in the body of the response that indicate an exception occurred in the external system. I have code in the BPL that examines the property and sets the status property to an error status when that occurs.
I'm a DBA and support Caché databases on AIX. I coded shell scripts for monitoring journaling status, databases size, license end date.
We recently got a new instance of Caché on Windows. I'm just curious to know whether anyone coded database monitoring scripts on Windows using PowerShell or any other scripting language.
We have multiple implementations spanning many namespaces and edges. I would like to see if I could identify a single place, perhaps on HSREGISTRY or HSBUS, that I could capture certain events like searches (from all customers) and record transfers (with requester and provider).
The goal is to have a dashboard that would show simple stats such as searches by participant, records shared by participant and records consumed by participant. These are the 3 most important.
I appreciated the feedback on the other question of "how" but now I'm hoping to find the "Where".
Caché Version String: Cache for UNIX (Red Hat Enterprise Linux for x86-64) 2016.2.1
We have a mirrored Ensemble system (110, backup and 210, primary). At one time (14:00) there is a disruption in the production. The messages are not being processed.
Im trying configure the Caché Monitor Manager (^MONMGR) utility for send alert e-mails. Following the steps I have doubs to configure the options in "Set Server" to send e-mails for hotmail or outlook (smtp-mail.outlook.com). I dont know how can I configure Mail server SSLConfiguration for hotmail or outlook. Could you give me help? Thank you!
We are constantly running into issues where there are billions of Orphaned messages in our system that cause problems, and we have to manually run a cleanup to fix performance issues.
I have Ensemble/Healthshare running in a production environment which is setup with a mirror failover and an arbiter sitting between them.
In the event of a failover we have a number of connections that need stopping/monitoring and starting in a certain order.
Is there a programmatic way we can detect the failover and stop certain services and operations immediately and then start them up again in the required order, checking their connection state before starting the next connection.
Off the back of the Interface Monitoring post I had created a class that queries the Ens.AlertRequest global and returns the entries between 6pm the night before and 6am in the morning.
I tested this build in our T&D environments and the build worked very well.
However in our production environment the query is being truncated, by what I believe to be a timeout and I get a partial query output.
In the System>SQL pages my 12 hour query times out.
Currently we are using an older Healthshare instance but I am not opposed to using IRIS as we will upgrade eventually.
Currently for monitoring productions we have a Montior screen. We have both the Queues page and a Deepsee dashboard which has current status of our services. The issue with the Deepsee method we currently have with traffic lights is 1) the page is a bit slow to load the metrics 2) any new services from the team a new widget needs created and although this is easy enough to do it just is time consuming.
A long time ago I enabled Activity Monitoring to be able to save myself headaches in the future when looking at the performance of various message routes through our productions. It's served it's purpose of answering questions on how many messages we process a week etc but I had not had the chance to really dig down into the stats for specific message types or destinations to pin point issues.
As per the documentation of QueueCountAlert: Number of messages on this item's queue needed to trigger an Alert message to be sent. Note that no further alerts will be sent unless the number of messages on the queue drops below 80% of this number and then rises again to this number. Note that this alert will be sent even if AlertOnError is False. Zero means no alerts of this type will be sent.
Now, the question is, If QueueCountAlert is set to 10, and the queue size become 11 we will be getting email once.
