Hello m8s,
As you know in system administration field , the monitoring is essentials part daily stuff.
In Linux based OS , if you need to extract some numerical values from main-board sensors you will accomplished with no-more than….5 click..i mean commands.
And everything will just work as you expect…but there is also other side – some call it Windows 😀
As you know, running stuff on Windows sometimes becomes so fantastic journey (with point of no return ^_^), that you just may not able to remember where you start…and how the hell you made the deam thing to work 🙂
In next..not so few steps i will show you how drawing thought SNMP numerical values from your main-board sensors.
I will use windows SNMP services + Speed Fan + all of my knowledge do guide you.
Installing and config snmp sensors with Windows 7
– Navigate to “Control Panel” -> “Programs and Features”
– In left part select “Turn Windows features on or off“
– Search in “Windows Features” for “Simple Network Managment Protocol (SNMP)” -> and put check . Now wait until install complete
– Navigate to services control pannel: Start Menu -> Run -> services.msc than search for “SNMP Services“ and righ click – Properties.
– Select “Agents” tab and type the correct values in Name and Location. For example: “Pavlin.Chervenkov” “Floor2” and then hit apply
– Select “Traps” tabs and type in “Community name” type “desktop” then hit apply.
– Select “Security” tab and add to “Accepted community names” the name from previous step – “desktop” and “Community rights” (READ ONLY)
– Add desire host to “Accept SNMP packets from these hosts” or use “Accept SNMP packets from any host”
Then Apply and OK
– It is a MUST to stopl services and put it on Manual mode ! We shall start it later
– Check windows firewall !
Speedfan + snmp extension
– Install installspeedfan439.exe
– Install speedfan snmp extension http://deve.loping.net/projects/sfsnmp/downloads/
– Start speedfan with full path like this: Start > Run > C:\Program Files (x86)\SpeedFan\Injector.exe
Windows fixs
Control Panel > All Control Panel Items > User Accounts > Change user account control settings – “Never notify”
Go to speedfan folder: C:\Program Files (x86)\SpeedFan\
right click on injector.exe > Properties > Compatabillity > Set checkbox ON “Run this program as an administrator”
Task Scheduler
We have to create two scheduler task to run everything smoothl.
1. Speedfan
Start > Run amd type: %windir%\system32\taskschd.msc /s
Action > Create Taks
General:
Name: speedfan
Configure for: Windows 7
Triggers > New:
Begin the task: At log on
Delay task for: 30 seconds
Actions > New:
Start a program:
“C:\Program Files (x86)\SpeedFan\injector.exe”
2. SNMP Task
Action > Create Taks
General:
Name: snmp
Configure for: Windows 7
Triggers > New:
Begin the task: At log on
Delay task for: 1minute
Actions > New:
Start a program:
“D:\Install\snmpstart.bat”
This is content of snmpstart.bat
“net start snmp” <- Without the quotes !
Speedfan settings
Rum Smart fan from above path for the first time:
Start > Run: C:\Program Files (x86)\SpeedFan\injector.exe
Select “Configure” then “Options”
+ “Start minimized”
+ “Minimize on close”
That is ! Now restart and pray.
