DCI Parameters

Notes on using particular DCIs

ChildStatus

ChildStatus can be used to check status of child items of the nodes, particularly:

  1. Network Service
  2. Interface

While using ChildStatus to check status of the interface, keep in mind, that depending on the device/vendor object ID of the interface might change between the configuration polls. For Cisco switches there's way to preserve ifIndex for the interfaces using snmp-server ifindex persist command (read more about that on Interface Index (ifIndex) Persistence)

Node interface

Notes on working with node interfaces

Parameters

Required poll count

NetXMS will consider interface down only after given number of unsuccessful polls.

Event Processing Policy

Missing Events

Please note, that no events processed from the node after receiving SYS_NODE_DOWN even, until SYS_NODE_NORMAL received from that node.

Macros for Event Processing

Note, that different set of macros available for Activation and De-activation of alarms. For example, if you use unique DCI ID for alarm generation (%5), you should use different macro to de-activate this alarm (%3)
