Question : How to Create a Custom Monitor in OpManager Version 7 and above ?

Solution :Follow the Steps

1)Edit the HostResource.XML file and create a custom category for the custom monitor. Add the custom category under the correct poll id, i.e Linux, solaris etc.

Check the link below to know more about the HostResource.XML file and to create the custom monitors.

2) Goto the Device Template for the particular category and add a bulk monitor , where the SNMP OID is the Category ID (from HostResource.XML file) and save it and then modify the template, but do not apply the changes to the devices.

3) After following the above steps, connect to the Database and execute the queries below.

i)update graphdetails set protocolid=2 where graphname like %<Category id>%';

ii)delete from devicepackagetograph where graphid=<graphid value for the custom monitor in graphdetails table>;

iii)delete from vendorgraphdetails where graphid=<graphid value for the custom monitor in graphdetails table>;

iv)insert into standardgraphdetails values (3,<graphid value for the custom monitor in graphdetails table>);

4)Now go to the particular template and apply the monitor to all the devices.
