Zenoss not updating completely after modeling

After I model a server, it completes successfully by pulling all of my components, graphs are populated as well.  My issue is if I look under the tab 'File Systems', my 'Total Bytes are correct, however my 'Used Bytes' and 'Free Bytes' are 0.00B.  % Util is 'Unknown.

 

This is not happening on all of my servers.  About half are having the issue.  It appears to be majority of W2K8 servers and some W2K3 servers are affected.  I have W2k8 and W2K3 servers which populate fine.  I am using the same templates for all of servers.

 

I use the community DellMon 2.43,devAdvDetail 2.7 zenpacks by Egor

 

Zenoss Core 3.2.1

Cenos 5.7 x64

 

Any help is much appreciated.

 

Thanks,

 

Randy

    I've seen this reported a bunch on the forums, but no commonalities - everything varies. I'm assuming the problem servers have the same patch levels as the working ones? There are no Zenoss events re WMI or SNMP on them? I don't use the DellMon, but have you considered trying the Windows Perf WMI packs from Egor? That works for me...

    Time often fixes this.  Also, try remodelling a sample device again - that may do it.

    Cheers,

    Randy:

     

    Are you modelling these via snmp or WMI?

    Randy:

     

    Can you su zenoss then zenmodel run now -v10 -d 'thisDeviceName' and post the result?

    Randy:

     

    From the result it looks like it didn't bother to model the device. If you dont mind can you zenmodeler run wno -v10 -d 'ip address' instead? Also, no -- before now.

     

    Thanks!

    Re: Zenoss not updating completely after modeling

    It looks like this has largely succeeded though I do see at least one SNMP failure message.  Your initial output posting suggested that the device was down (didn't respond at all) when you modeled it.  Is this a busy device or at the end of a slow piece of network??  It may be worth increasing the snmp timeout value in the configuration of the device or device class if you are seeing inconsistent results.

     

    The other thing I see is that in addition to the various Dell modeler plugins, you also have the /Server/Windows default InformantHardDisk Map plugin.  Do you actually have the Informant agent installed on your target system??  I suspect that was the plugin that caused the SNMP timeout and I think it will be that plugin that sets up the used bytes and free bytes.

     

    If you don't have the Informant SNMP agent, that probably explains your problem.

     

    If that is the case, and if your Windows systems support the standard SNMP Host Resources MIB, then I would remove the Informant modeler and add the HRFileSytemMap modeler.

     

    Cheers,

    Jane
