Re: Use/Convert snmp STRING to a useable output value

My first fix for this was a php script to pull the point and return (print dsname:value) it as a data point, using the string manipulations in php. I feel like this is very SLOW. I'd like to redo this in the cacti scripting engine ( where PHP and DB hooks exist already ) and see what sort of improve...

Re: batch CHANGE of host ip adresses

I was looking at the database tables yesterday. I think the magic you are talking about is an update of the poller_item table, updating hostname, matching on host_id. I found a couple of items in this table which seemed to be broken ( wrong hostname information ), when I opened the host and re-saved...

Cacti-EZ -- issue with SPINE & string SNMP results

This took me some time to isolate, but the current packages and ISOs of Cacti-EZ have a spine binary which is compiled with NO_SNMP_STRING_RETURNS turned off/undefined. ( from looking at the snmp.c file, I'm guessing that is the option. If you are polling devices which return data such as " 52....

Re: How large is your weathermap?

I guess I'm doing a great deal of OVERLIB graph pointing and INFOURL. My output folder for the map looks like this: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 13M Jan 26 11:38 3920c69daf11e0753edb.html -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 48K Jan 26 11:38 3920c69daf11e0753edb.png -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 14K Jan 26 11:38 3920c69daf11e...

Raritan PX 2/3 MIB changes

Hello everyone - I have a cacti system with the Raritan PX series host templates installed. All the PX series units work great. Someone just purchased a bunch of PX3 units for us which use the PDU2 MIB. These have a completely different point layout and I'm staring at the XML definitions without rea...

How large is your weathermap?

Hello everyone,

I am working on a single-page alerting pane for the wall in our NOC.

I have a working map, but the load-to-browser size is around 17mb, wondering how that compares with other users large maps?

Re: TARGET {variables from other nodes}

I think I have a work-around, and it should be fairly nice. I have a non-plugin script to return the number of hosts down, selected from the pool of cactihosts by a keyword in the host.notes field. The script also returns the number of matching hosts. I will be storing this data in an .rra file for ...

Re: TARGET {variables from other nodes}

Understandable from a distrusting environment perspective. I've been unable to define a TARGET such as TARGET {this:node:rravariablefilenamefromset}. The dependency layers do make sense for further trouble in resolving. Perhaps another custom cactiboolhostgroup custom data source to report any nodes...

TARGET {variables from other nodes}

Hello everyone, I'm working on a hierarchical alerting / status map. I am able to display a value from a remote node (same map) but I'm unable to TARGET the same value string. The goal is host group behavior... such as this: Site A HostGroup A-1 HostGroup A-2 ThresholdGroup X ThresholdGroup W I have...

Re: 0.8.8f Plugin Management problem

I'm seeing the same issue, it looks like the setup is attempting to detect plugins, but the select/join is failing. I'm looking into it further.
