Cacti

hi, figured it out eventually. tuned some mysql parameters according to output from mysqltuner.pl also since the box was up for something like 950 days, a reboot was in order to clear any possible memory leaks and such. as much as i am NOT a fan of rebooting boxes, this time it sounds like it was re...

Hi, did some further troubleshooting, and what I see for sure is that the data ending up in the rrd files is incorrect. see below Also it looks like for some reason I cant figure out, its taking longer for the poller to do its job. the expected time is about 80 sec. now its going way over. Can this ...

Hi Gandalf, graphs are all set to 64 bit counters. the graph i attached as an example happened to be just about on 100Mb so I see why you asked :) I have other graphs graphing over 114Mbps and even Gbps of traffic with the same spiky behaviour as of a few hours. for some reason the spiky behaviour i...

Hello All, my cacti server has been running well for years. today i had a small network outage such that the cacti machine could not access the network its monitoring for a few minutes. when network connectivity was restored the graosh resumed but there are showing a large number of spikes - see bel...

thanks, so whenever i delete the data source, does the rrd file remain there ? hmmm so ive got some cleaning up to do as i always thought the rrd file would get deleted when deleting the data source.

Hi, I deleted some graphs but left the data sources intact. now im trying to create those graphs again, but on the create graphs screen, the graphs i want to create are grayed out - like they still exist. dont know if anyone can help me - since i dont want to delete the data sources which contain qu...

OID change is due to an software change on the box (IOS change on cisco CMTS). will get the old and new OID for this and post it asap

thanks

Hi, i have the following situation, which i thought would be faq, but didnt find a specific solution on the forum: i am graphing an OID via an indexed data query and resulting graph works fine. then (for reasons i wont go into detail about at this point), i have a change of OID for obtaining the sam...

Hi, I have setup an XML file for snmp query and the associated data query, and data and graph templates, but graphs remain at zero I have done cacti debugging and it turns out that I am not getting a valid result from the snmp query. the general snmp query from an xml file would be 'oid'.'index' how...

thanks for the info.

i'll add a little more complexity to that:

whats the table to query to get the graph title or data source name corresponding to the rrd file.

And is the host id the primary key to use if multiple tables are required in the mysql query.


cheers

Hi, I need to be able to make up a list of all the rrd filenames associated with a particular device/host which exists in cacti. Ive browsed around the mysql database, and I guess the info is there somewhere, but I thought I'd ask if anyone can point me to the right tables, or some other way of obta...

the log i pasted above shows the links plugin, but it happens for the haloe plugin and weathermap plugin too. i did not modify any of the code, except the default config to get it to work, so i was just asking why it is trying root access to mysql since the cacti data is held under username cacti no...

Hi, i have had cacti 0.86h running fine on freebsd5.5. mysql had a blank root password, so i decided to fix this. now every so often, cacti or a plugin tab hangs and i get this in apache error log: [Mon Nov 20 12:53:13 2006] [error] [client 212.56.129.212] PHP Warning: mysql_pconnect() [<a href='fun...

Hi, im running cacti0.86h on freebsd5.5 and all is working ok except for the log file. from 'console > system utilities > view cacti log file' i could see the cacti log file, but over the past few days, no logs show up when i click. the log file in /usr/local/share/cacti/log/cacti.log is still being...

hi again fixed my own issue - you have to click the green circle to reload the updated data from the device, and only then should you 're-apply names', since otherwise the non-updated names will be re-applied which is quite useless. the documentation needs some updating, since there are so many litt...
