Subject: RE: [NV-L] How to capture "down since" information
Hello again,
I seem to have sent this before I completely finished it....
The quicktest command shows the same as the nmdemandpoll output, so it appears
to use the same information.
A quick method of reporting on all these things might be something like:
for SELECTIONNAME in `/usr/OV/bin/nvUtil e '((isNode=true) && (("IP Status" =
Critical) || ("IP Status" = Marginal) || ("IP Status" = Unreachable)))'`; do
/usr/OV/bin/ovtopodump -v $SELECTIONNAME | egrep -p -v "STATUS: +Up" | egrep
"(HOSTNAME|STATUS:|IP ADDR|LAST SUCCESSFUL)"
done
At least it should work in theory for reporting the last successful poll on
interfaces for Nodes that are showing as Critical, Marginal, or Unreachable....
;-)

RE: [NV-L] How to capture "down since" information
Hello,
ovtopodump -v is the correct place to find this information... While the SYMBOL
CHANGE TIME will have information that can be useful, it is not what is
indicated in the "(down since...)" part of the nmdemandpoll output. The
date/time displayed there is found in the LAST SUCCESSFUL POLL line of the
INTERFACE sections of the ovtopodump output. With nmdemandpoll, I believe this
value is only displayed for interfaces with a STATUS of "Down" (also found in
the ovtopodump output).
Hope this helps.

RE: [NV-L] How to capture "down since" information
Ovtopodump -v will give you a detailed display where the SYMBOL CHANGE TIME
will contain the information you want. It will also tell you when the device
came up or went marginal or was unmanaged. There will also be a symbol change
time for each interface so the Unix command to use for the whole time string on
the device is:
ovtopodump -v <hostname> | grep "SYMBOL CHANGE TIME" | awk 'NR==1' | cut -d":"

Subject: [NV-L] How to capture "down since" information
Hi List,
I generate a report of critical, unreachable and marginal nodes three times a
day.
I would like to include the "down since" timestamp for each node.
I know a quicktest will provide the "down since" timestamp, but I am assuming
that information is in one of the databases already.
Does anyone know where that timestamp is, or how I could get that information
for each node?
NV7.1.4, FP5 on AIX 5.2
Thanks
Randal Dold
