I like Bulek's idea of using multiple cmd.php processes. So I took it a step further. I think a lot of the delay that develops from overlapping processes lies in when multiple processes are hitting the same host with SNMP queries. So I modified the select statement like so: select * from data_input_...

I played around with nice and cactid, yesterday. I have NO PROBLEMS running cactid 0.8.1 :D at least that I could see anyway.

Here's a question/suggestion: Can multiple GETs be performed in a single connection to an SNMP device? If so could you write the poller to gather all SNMP GETs per host into a single chunk and grab them all at once?

BTW: The delays I get seem to be more of an SNMP get delay than a processing power problem. If I do an snmpget from the command line, it takes 3-5 seco...

Hi Fred, I usually obtain unknown SNMP OIDs from hosts by running the following commands on a Linux box: shell> snmpwalk <hostname> <community> .1 > oids.alpha shell> snmpwalk -On <hostname> <community> .1 > oids.numeric Then open both output files in separate windows, side by side and scan through ...
