Cacti

Well, I have absolutely no idea how it happened, but somehow overnight last night, the SNMP connections started working. It seems sort of suspicious, but all of my devices are shown as up now and are collecting data.

I'm getting the following in my /var/mail/root file (along with the typical to/from tags and other info) when the poller runs: 02/08/2011 03:35:03 PM - SYSTEM STATS: Time:1.1221 Method:cmd.php Processes:1 Threads:N/A Hosts:1 HostsPerProcess:1 DataSources:0 RRDsProcessed:0 The line shown above is the...

I think that it may have had to do with somethin...
