NoSystemInfo

Path: /model/data_collection/nosysteminfo.mod

This behavior model determines which devices are missing system information (name, description, and contact). If you assign trouble tickets based on the value in the contact field, for example, that information is very important.

You can use this model as a template to create other alarms that verify the presence of particular MIB data that you require in your environment.

Property

The following property must be in the property group for the nodes you want to monitor:

NO_PROP

Trigger Generators

Below is a list of the objects that generate triggers:

• GotSystemInfo (poll)

Events Sent to OpenView

NoSystemInfo sends no events to OpenView.

For more information about integrating NerveCenter with OpenView, or the other NerveCenter-supported network manager platforms, refer to the book Integrating NerveCenter with a Network Management Platform.

Optional Customization

Below is a list of behavior model settings that you might want to customize to suit the requirements of your site.

   It's a good practice to rename the behavior model objects that you modify. Whenever you import a model, NerveCenter will overwrite objects with the same name.

• Poll intervals
• If a subset of managed nodes is required to have system data initialized, change the GotSystemInfo poll's property to target those devices.
• Add actions to the noSystemInfo transition to log the occurrence or send e-mail to the person responsible for maintaining the agent's system data. Add an SNMP Set action to set the system data if the attribute values are known and the agents are configured to allow writes.
