Cacti

I posted the 'cacti cluster' files under the 'distributed cacti' topic - http://forums.cacti.net/viewtopic.php?p=120908

Thanks for the links.. I will try the new rrdtool and see how it effects performance.

Here are the 'cacti cluster' files. Please read the whitepaper first and README.first

I am also glad to see the direction that cacti is taking. Here is a whitepaper I started to write describing our current cacti implementation (so it is not entirely complete). Our goal was to have a semi-symmetrical, linearly-scaled architecture that would provide data and polling resiliency. This w...

We currently use a HA clustered mysql cacti solution, using: - mysql 5.0 real-time clustering/replication - GFS on a 14-disk raid5 array (HP/compaq msa500) with two servers SCSI-attached (dl380g3) - custom poller that divides polling amongst active nodes - load-balanced web front-end with cisco CSS ...

I have been away from this project for a while -

I would appreciate if the contributors could send me a PM or email me - aurelio_desimone@yahoo.com - so I can get caught up on the fixed bugs and the exisiting ones -

I want to make sure thold will be compatable with 8.6e and 9...

thanks

raderjm: looks like the rrd files actually store the value in BYTES not BITS; and so you are seeing the value in thold has BYTES. (That still does not add up because 87590 * 8 = 700,720). Try setting your thold to 150000, which is equal to 1200000 bits (1.2mbit). I hope to make this easier in the fu...

solefald: yes, an external program should be easy to implement. Would you want it as a per-datasource setting or global setting? neophyte: I would check your crontab. Also, make sure debug=1 on [cactiroot]/thold/check-thold.php and look at the logfile - [cactiroot]/log/thold.log . You can also try r...

vluce: you are better off rounding up / down your thresholds because check-thold.php will do so when extracting the values from the rrd files.

ok... I'll answer my own question - this can be done using the rrdtool_function_graph() function (duh!) and output into an email as an attachment ..

i'll include it in the next release

encoding can be done via PHP, but how would I export just one graph? the cacti export() function doesn't take any variables.

any help would be appreciated

it may be possible - it would probably require using the base64_encode function (and the dynamic picture is an issue I forsaw with firewalls, especially if you are checking your email from the outside). I'll put it on the todo list.

addlema: the problem may be with the source email address; what email address do your other scripts use? This will default to the local user that is running the cron job, along with the local domain. If this is not valid, your mailserver may not be allowing you to relay out (or there are other restr...

rpingar: try this install batch file - orgininally posted by benhanson - also, see this link for email options for both windows & unix - http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.mail.php starkie: php uses your system's default mailsystem (i.e. sendmail for *nix) - unless you change the php options (see ...
