Has there been any further development on this? Nope, as Gandalf pointed out, and as I had suspected this isn't a problem with cacti. Rather it's a limitation of the old/standard snmpd MIB for reporting disk space which at the time probably didn't expect to ever see disks above 2 or 4 TB. I haven't...

Is there an alternate MIB that can be used which supports larger values? Is there something that I can change in the snmpd client source such that recompiling i...

Disk size greater than 2TB or 4TB, > 2 Tera Bytes, >2T

I'm running Cacti Version 0.8.7b with SNMPv2 on and against a variety of platforms including Linux (Ubuntu & Debian), FreeBSD, and Windows (2000, XP, Vista). The problem I'm encountering is with disks larger than 2TB or 4TB. I believe that the problem is due to the 16 bit values that are returne...
