Hi, I use Dude to monitor services and network bandwidth mainly. I just moved my Dude server on to a virtual server (running on VMWare ESXi) Since I moved it all the probes i created to monitor services and disk space now don't work. I cannot even do an SNMP walk on the server however I can ping it....

Is there anyway to export history information to get data in the form of numbers rather than picture graphs.

It would be useful to manipulate the histroy info and get averages etc.

Any ideas?

Sorry lebowski, shoulda given more info, I did mention that I have 'I have some experience with the 'DUDE"' but I could have been more specific. My main experience to date is with monitoring servers and their services. None really with router and bandwidth probes or links. Anyway I have suss’ed...

Thanks for that...as helpful as it was to post a link for the entire manual I need some more help than the basic manual provides. I am assuming that bandwidth can be monitored by using links. What I am having trouble is working how to use the 'interface' section of the link. I am not sure how I am s...

Hi,

I need to set up a bandwidth probe or something to help me measure the how much bandwidth is being used at our division routers. I have some expereince with the 'DUDE" but I have no idea where to start with this.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks

Thanks heaps

I need to provide the correct ports that the DUDE uses to communicate with other devices so I can get bandwidth data on our sub-branch internet routers.

Can any one help me?

Does anyone know if there is a way to get probe warnings to display on separate lines rather than separated by commas. If you get multiple failures, your network object expands out horizontally across the page.

Is it possible to create a probe to monitor the amount of memory that a particular process is using - like Dude.exe for instance. I would like to monitor this process and have a service restart command run when the alert is raised for reaching a particular memory usage for the dude.exe service. As s...

I managed to find the issue though i do not understand why it needs to be done. Instead of having the whol eOID as numbers it wanted a combination of both and now works perfectly e.g:

[oid("iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.318.1.1.1.2.2.1.0")]%

Actually i did it a slightly different way, i simple specified each different CPU oid and added them together and divided by the number of CPUs e.g: [(oid("1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.3.1.2.7")+oid("1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.3.1.2.8"))/2]%. This works nicely, but as i said for some reason if i have ...

I have an odd issue, i have set up all our servers to show CPU, HDD and RAM information by adding the appropriate OID information in the label window of the appearance properties. This is working very well, except that the 2 servers that we have that are single processor CPUs, they show the OID ie:'...

Thanks, i will give it a try. I would also liketo find out where there is detailed documentation of the commands used in these preobes eg: what does 'array_find' mean and the '>0, 1, 0)' specification at the end of the available line. Also, the information about copying the lmmib2.mib file into the ...

How can i successfully monitor a windows service using a function probe when the OID keeps changing for the service-i understand this happens every reboot, in fact i think it happens even when a processor service is restarted. I think this must be the PID of the process. i tried to fashion one using...

How can i successfully monitor a windows service using a function probe when the OID keeps changing for the service- I think this must be the PID of the process.
i tried to fashion one using the example in the forums that uses looks for 'OUTLOOK.EXE' but it didn't seem to work.

Help please.

I am trying to figure out using a probe for HDD_USAGE. I have seen a previous post regarding this and it suggested doing the following: Create a new probe: Type: function Available: if(hdd_usage()>0, 1, -1) Error: if(hdd_usage()<90, "", "Disk usage > 89%") Value: hdd_usage() Unit...

Excellent mate, thanks. Works a treat

Yeah, i am kind of resigned to doing that, but is there a command that can be schedules to do it. I tried a few but no joy. It would be easier to seta scheduled task to do it once a day.

I have installed dude 2.2 on my Win2K3 server. I find this program immensly useful and fun to use. I have layed out our entire network of about 140 devices in total. It works very well but i have noticed that i have a memory leak. While dude is running there are always 2 dude.exe processes in the ta...
