<p><span style="font-size: 11pt; color: rgb(31, 73, 125);">Thanks for the reply. With 4.1(3) and other Windows builds, PRI
information and other statistics could be gathered through the MGCP stats on
the server. It appears that no one on the forums for Cacti have been able to accomplish
the same for the appliance model. I have the standard Interface statistics
being monitored at this point, but thanks for the tip on the Get Processor
Information. I was assuming that the underlying SNMP daemon was running UCD /
NetSNMP, so I figured the ucd/net would give me what I wanted. It looks like
you can gather partition information as well. I'll let you know how that looks
after I get a few polling cycles done.</span></p>

<p style="margin-bottom: 12pt;">So far just device registration
info and CPU via SNMP.. I'm using the "SNMP - Get Processor
Information" canned data query for CPU. The results I'm getting appear to
be accurate just comparing it to the RTMT report archive. I will try to find
what OID it's hitting though.<br>
<br>
You can also query the ethernet interfaces on those servers, the "SNMP -
Interface Statistics" seems to work good for that if your inclined. <br>
<br>
Just starting to dabble in the SOAP interface but that's something I'd like to
do down the road with cacti.<br>
<br>
Also using cacti to graph recurring IP SLA results.<br>
<br>
CM5.1 btw.<br>

<p style="margin-bottom: 12pt;">FWIW I'm using splunk for sysloging.. more of
an after-the-fact research tool than a monitoring tool for us but the search
capabilities are very nice and it was relatively easy to setup. Its free as
long as your not going to be logging gobs of stuff at it.<br>
<br>
RTMT, What's UP, Cacti, IP SLA running across some key links, etc otherwise
like alot of folks.<br>
<br>
Tried ops manager in its previous ciscoworks incarnation and really didnt like
it. Not sure how its improved yet under the new product name.<br>
<br>
I only have 2 clusters to manage though so ymmv.</p>

<p>Hi everyone,<br>
<br>
What are the most common methods used to monitor a large enterprise<br>
VOIP environment (multiple clusters) ? All clusters are running CM<br>
5.x or 6.x (locked down appliances).<br>
<br>
Ops Manager ?<br>
RTMT ?<br>
SNMP MIBs ?<br>
...etc<br>
<br>
Has anyone had any success with ops manager ? I have had nothing but<br>
problems with ops manager. Your suggestions/input would be greatly<br>
appreciated.<br>
<br>
