We have a situation where we have to set up a server to send traps with information regarding CPU, memory usage, etc. I know snmpd can be set up to allow another process to request snmp information about the server, but can it be done the other way around (have a host send information about itself to another server through snmp)?
View 4 RepliesI have an issue when sending snmp traps. I have an embedded system connected to a SNMP manager. I am sending traps from the box to the manager continuosly. After sometime I don't see any trpas coming out.
I get this error message.
Cannot open file /proc/net/tcp ...
: Too many open files
Cannot open file /proc/net/snmp ...
: Too many open files
What could be the reason for such an error?
I have created this thread as it sis realy hard for me to send traps from my Linux workstation... I m lost with v1/v2/v3 snmp... So here is the initial configuration: (without traps)
rocommunity myrocom
rwcommunity MyL33tP4ss 10.5.32.202
rwcommunity MyL33tP4ss 127.0.0.1
syslocation "FR"
syscontact root
From there i can "poll" my system. But what should i do if i want my Linux system sending traps when disks are full or system overloaded etc...I have found information on Internet but not easily understandable It is for v3:
rwuser admin
createUser admin MD5 mypasword
#
# From there i would have to comment the lines regarding the communities

10.5.32.202 is my management host ... is this config ok ? But it seems that trap2sink is for v2 ? How does it work ?
I'm trying to configure SNMP service to send traps to SNMP server. I've installed net-snmp-utils, now I need to configure the "snmpd.conf" file...

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a favor to ask, I've been having a really hard time trying to understand how snmp traps work, what can they do for you, and why they are useful. I've done some research and I've even set up snmp clients on linux systems, not necessarily the traps. I know they communicate on port 161 and 162 and I also know that you set them up to connect to a community string. Still I cant grasp the concept. If you don't mind can any one break it down for me, in very basic terms.

Last weekend i've set up my first headless ubuntu home file server and torrent downloader with ubuntu 9.10.Very cool but CPU is way too fast for a home server: P4 HT 2.8Ghz, unfortunatly it has only 256Mb of ram, so no X server and no VNC (old HP office pc) At the moment memory usage is only 40Mb without X server.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a VPS running a web application served using Apache, that on average deals with 20-50 requests per second. It's usually above this point (50 requests per second) that the amount of memory that Apache uses is too high for the VPS and errors start occuring - web pages crash and VPS falls over for a minute or two before going back to normal levels.
I believe that MaxClients is the best way to reduce the amount of RAM that Apache uses and I am planning to reduce MaxClients from 256 (default value) to around 100. Each Apache process uses ~15MB and the server has 1900MB of ram in total - the server does nothing else other than run Apache and a few crons.
Current setting are:
Code:
KeepAlive On
MaxKeepAliveRequests 100
KeepAliveTimeout 3
# prefork MPM
# StartServers: number of server processes to start
[Code].....
I tried reducing MaxClients before which lead to massive slowness, so I need some other options as well.
Does my suggestion of reducing MaxClients to ~100 seems sensible? What are my options if the server experiences slowness again - optimise the application? What's the best way to reduce memory usage - move images to another web server?
Top only show the memory usage for individual processes. Apache often runs hundreds of processes, each of which may use only a small amount of memory, however the total memory consumed by all apache processes can be fairly large.Is there a way to see the total memory usage for all apache processes?

View 14 Replies View RelatedNagios had alerted me that the server had a very high load average exceeding the critical level (17+), when logging onto the server I found that all 4GB of the swap was in use despite the fact that there was 15GB+ of free memory (and that's not even including memory from cache and buffers!) Because it seems all heavily used pages were being stored in swap, the I/O wait on the server became very high, and 4 kswapd daemons were taking up nearly 100% available CPU. This did coincide with an error reported by Bacula during a backup job while changing to a bad tape...

Well to cut a long story short, I fixed the problem by disabling the swap partition with 'swapoff'. After about 30 mins all the swap was freed and the server went back to normal. I don't dare reactivate the swap partition and unfortunately as this is a live server which currently has no fail over, I can't reboot either
Server Spec:
4 * Dual-Core AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 8214
32GB DDR2 ECC RAM
RHEL 5.5, 2.6.18-194.11.3.el5 SMP x86_64
Running many KVM VMs (All CentOS x64) and kksmd is used.
bacula-dir Version: 5.0.0
IBM Tape Drive using lin_tape module version 1.34.0 according to modinfo
And before anybody asks
# sysctl vm.swappiness
vm.swappiness = 10
