I wonder if setting the data_query to "Verify All Fields" would help through the IP change, if the IP is in the input fields of course.
edit: Or maybe removing the IP from the input fields as a test..

After upgrading to g, my data_queries are collecting data, but i can't re-index them. Verbose Querying, gives me "No SNMP data return" for default and custom data queries. ############# + Running data query [15]. + Found type = '3' [snmp query]. + Found data query XML file at '/usr/local/c...

have you lookup at the RRAs.
When you create a data source / template, you specify how much history you want by associating RRAs.

Different RRAs can be configured in Data Source / RRAs..

(this thread might be related to the graph duplication one.)

just in case it would save anyone's time. after some testing: - I'm pretty sure this was caused by the fact that my data template which is bound to a data_query did not have the following options checked as (Use Per-Data Source..) - Use Per-Data Source Value - Index Type - Index Value - Output Type ...

I had this sort of issue after duplicating,
but now i got it again by just adding a "Data Source Item" to a data template and saving it.

maybe it's not bound to a duplication bug specifically..

e.g. if Cacti server's clock is in UTC...

yummy.

on that topic having a data_query "Suggested Values" option for data source filenames would be cool too.

"Suggested Values"
-> "Data Source Fields"
-> "Data Source Path"

i heard that this may be possible with rrdtool, but not through Cacti yet.

I need this too, but couldn't research yet.

I know that MyISAM tables tend to corrupt when the database shut's down abruptly. When i'm in this situation, i generally: - verify tables with >show table status - if any table looks like crap, run a > mysqlcheck on them - then a > mysqlrepair if needed.

I'm looking into this also,
in my case i'd like Nagios to poll and forward to Cacti,
so that alarming is done before graphing.

for "quick usage", i use the -m option to specify the mib file location. snmpwalk -On hostname -c community -m /usr/share/snmp/mibs/tsight-mib.txt enterprises.corad.tSight.watchpoints.watchpointStatsCurrent .1.3.6.1.4.1.9723.1.1.4.1.1.1.1 = INTEGER: 1 .1.3.6.1.4.1.9723.1.1.4.1.1.1.2 = INTE...

I experienced similar after duplicating a graph template and applying to my data_query, all graph had stop collecting..

I'm curious to make sure if you're using data_queries for this?
