Cacti

This thread appears to have split into two directions: SNMP and some perl script. Is anyone successfully pulling SNMP data from VMWare?

*bump*

Anyone have information about tracking disk service times via net-snmpd? My searching has turned up very little.

So AIX support on Cacti is dead?

Is anybody working on the AIX host template? Any debugging hints?

Bumping thread... Does the ESX VMWare Server Template work with Cacti 0.8.7d?

(edited for clarification)

Nothing, then. OK.

lg: I'm hoping that there are not multiple conflicting definitions of the term "template" in the context of cacti. At http://docs.cacti.net/templates, there are sections for "Official Host Templates" and "Contributed Host Templates". Is anyone taking point on getting so...

Any ETA on the AIX host template?

AIX 5.3.8.

Is there a generic debug procedure posted on this site?

EDIT: Found one here.

ok, looks like the aix scripts in /resource/snmp_queries were missing. I added them (aix_{fs,vg,page,disk}.xml).

Now: it looks like the OIDs in the script don't match anything being returned by the snmpwalk query.

For an AIX 5.3.8 target host, querying "native" SNMPD, Cacti is throwing these errors: ======================================== Graph Templates Graph Template Name Create: AIX CPU Utilization Create: Data Query [AIX - Get File Systems] Reload Associated Query Error in data query. Notice: U...

I believe I'm experiencing a similar issue. Can't authenticate to the cacti login page after install. Nothing helpful in apache or cacti logs.

I don't think anyone has successfully pulled data from the native AIX snmpd. It's been described as a "convoluted mess"; my experience reinforces that impression. I will certainly post anything I can get working, but confidence is low. Even getting net-snmpd to work is tricky on AIX.

It's hard to hide my disappointment regarding Cacti and AIX. I've chunked through everything in the Forum that a search for AIX+SNMP provided... just several big piles of disorganized mutterings. As often as not, it is unclear whether the posters are working in the context of net-SNMP or the native ...
