Issue/Introduction

Incorrect value generated for snmpcollector Monitor NbrofPhysProcessorsConsumedbyLPAR. The metric expression shown in "Run Vendor Certification" against
Empire SystemEDGE LPAR -> SysEdgeLparApp 0 indicates that the value should be whole number + two digits (#.##)  but the value returns whole numbers.

 

Example seen with all  SystemEdge for AIX systems

Metric expression in Vendor Certification as followed:

totalLparPC :: 1.3.6.1.4.1.546.1.1.12.1.6.0 = 668 :: 668
NbrofPhysProcessorsConsumedbyLPAR :: 6 :: (totalLparPC/100)

In the above example the value is 6 when the value should be 6.68

Environment

Release : 9.2.0

Component : UIM - SNMPCOLLECTOR

Resolution

1) Deactivate the snmpcollector probe.

2) Edit the below changes in "snmp-sysedge-lpar-pc.xml" file in nimsoft probe directory

( eg:- ...\Nimsoft\probes\network\snmpcollector\VendorCertifications)

Current value : - (totalLparPC/100)

Changed value : - (totalLparPC/100L)

3) Activate the snmpcollector probe.

4. Wait several poll cycles and check data point values displayed for "QOS_EMPIRESYSTEMEDGELPAR_NBROFPHYSPROCESSORSCONSUMEDBYLPAR" in USM.
It should now display the whole number + 2 decimal digits vs just the whole number
