TS - Adding an ICON

Hello Tom,

Added the setting of the ICON to the code for the Juniper SSLVPN pair.
To set the ICON:
	BB=/home/xymon/server/bin/bb
	BBDISP-127.0.0.1
	DEVICE=SSLVPN1 or SSLVPN2
	COLUNM="online"
	COLOR=green       for 'online'  server
           =clear       for 'offline' server
	MSG="<the message to show when you click the icon>"
	$BB $BBDISP "status $DEVICE.$COLUMN $COLOR `date`
	
	${MSG}
	

Nice idea: set the status to "clear" if a node in a cluster is inactive. In this way there is no need to remember the previous state in the script, while a status change does not result in a warning or error message being sent.

FYI:  I found that the Primary server has all the information if you do
an
	snmpbulkwalk -v2c -c public IP-of-server1 or 2 .1 >FILENAME
The size of the file is very large for the online server compared to the
offline server.
I did the command above for both servers and then did a diff of the 2
files.
I then looked for the Virtual IP address using:  grep -I "<virtual-IP>"
*
  

So the variable to be tested is  "ipAdEntAddr.<Virtual-IP>".

If you find a better alternative, please let me know.
  

No alternative yet found; I am glad that there is an easily accessible variable at all which contains this information.

Your idea's are now incorporated in my juniper (server-side) script, which started out as a measurement of the number of web users.

Hello Tom,

  

I am using a MIB check to verify that a device (in a set of HA devices) is the current one using the virtual IP address.

I can tell from my scripting that the device has switched to the other
    

of the HA pair.

(A Juniper SSL-VPN pair).

I will be using NET-SNMP on the XYMON server to gather the info using a crontab script.

    

Which MIB variable (OID) can be used to determine which device is the one using the virtual IP address?

Regards,
  Wim Nelis.

  Wim Nelis.
