IRIS supports SNMP extended ( own your scripts )

IRIS customers have always asked for the ability to write their own scripts to push data into the IRIS graphing engine. Now with IRIS SNMP extend function built into our polling routines, this is now an easy way for our customers to write their own scripts to collect data, then graph / display that data in IRIS.

This gives our customers the freedom to custom monitor anything in the infrastructure using the power of IRIS.

This powerful new feature allows the data source and graph definitions to be built on the fly based on data found in the customer controlled script - you are in control of the data and the look of the graph.

Simply adding the profile to IRIS, assigning it to a device and IRIS is ready to start polling.

Example script options:

#!/bin/sh

# ? ? ? eg: extend IRIS-SNMPextend /bin/sh /usr/local/iris/scripts/IRIS-SNMPextend.sh
#
# CHECK:
# ? ? ? snmpbulkwalk -Oe -t 5 -v2c -c public localhost NET-SNMP-EXTEND-MIB::nsExtendOutputFull
#
# DESCRIBE:
# source01: ? ? The first datasource up to 4
# title:? ? ? ? Title on the graph
# decimals: ? ? Number of decimials in the legend
# color:? ? ? ? HTML color code of the line on the graph
# label:? ? ? ? Label of the source01
# tier1:? ? ? ? The first "tier / Catagory" in the Graph Browser
# tier2:? ? ? ? The second "tier / Catagory" in the Graph Browser

We are hoping this feature gives our customers that extra step to visualise more of their environment.
