Where is snmp data stored in database

Post by chrisfritz »

Hello, we are trying to pull snmp information such as (sysName.0 and sysDescr.0) from the NagiosXI database to display to an external website. I would appreciate any assistance locating the specific tables and or fields where this snmp information is stored in the database. Thank you.

CentOS 5.5
manual install

Thanks for replying, that was originally my post. The information provided there was a good start but it does not provide any information to where the snmp data is stored. Thanks again for any help.

I've been poking around in the databases a bit, and so far I've seen no evidence that it actually is stored at all, actually.

Unfortunately thats what I was afraid of, I searched just about every table and field in both the postgres and mysql databases. It appears that it is just displaying the data real time as nagios receives the snmp data. Is there a way this can be confirmed? Should I send this inquiry to the support email? Thanks again for your help, the ability to do what I have requested is very important to our organization.

My apologies as I overlooked that you were the author of that thread. I will do some digging around here to try and get you more information pertaining to this issue.
