Cacti

Sounds pretty cool. I would be interested to see the output...

We are looking to add additional cacti servers to allow polling from multiple geographic locations and for redundancy. I really do not want the configuration of each to become an island. - What methods has the communitiy used to keep configurations, rrd's, etc in sync? - Do you only do administratio...

Any suggestions on how to get the plugins working?

After the syslog DB filled up my filesystem, I was unable to remove these entries through mysql. The following procedure worked for me: cd /var/lib/mysql/syslog rm syslog_incoming.MYD rm syslog.MYD touch syslog_incoming.MYD touch syslog.MYD chown apache:apache *.MYD #################################...

The format is slightly off from what cacti needs, but that is easily modified. usage statemen...

Has anyone made any progress on this front?

All three promised to do all of the above and then some. In the end they all got shelved because they were too complex, required...

wouldn't that be considered off-site backup?

I was talking to a coworker about this today and the question came up how would you know from looking at a fixed graph whether it had been fixed or not... I suppose you could fake this out by shifting extrapolated values to graph under a different data point, then use a different color to show the f...

In the event a polled host is down or there is some other problem preventing cacti from reaching its intended target, your graphs will end up with broken sections during the time the outage occurred. Is there any plug-in available that will retroactively fix the graphs by averaging out the data betw...

I just loaded the cactiez-0.4 and it also is not working on ESX. Is there a fix for this?
