Cacti

Keep in mind that when you add a graph it does take time to populate, usually a poll cycle to show an empty graph or about 3 poll cycles to show a graph with a little data. Also this system does not show data for before a graph was built.

I have a Cacti 1.2.7 deployment that we just started a couple weeks ago. We are working to create automation rules to get graph creation and tree creation working. We have the tree part of the automation working. We just can't seem to get the data queries to automatically create the graphs. Auto gra...

I get that the interface statistics will get the info I gave as an example. However bandwidth is not what I'm actually tracking. I'm looking to get information from proprietary sensor packs via the connected controllers at a chemical plant. The controller does not have snmp capability beyond sending...

I need to pull some unique info of of a device. I have torn the MIB files apart multiple times and there are no OID's that poll the information I need. I am however able to telnet into the device to see the data. Think interface statistics, one version of the device may have 4 interfaces, another de...

Sounds like an RRD max value issue. What is the highest value it graphs before it chops off? is it around 117 Mb? Was this grpah orriginally built as a 32 bit counter and converted to a 64 bit counter?

Does anyone have an install guide for the dev version on cacati 1.x? I would like to start labbing some things up and for some reason its giving me more fits an not working (as in not installing at all).

Yes, the template changed with the major revision change from 0.x to 1.x

First off your values look to be off. 2.9 meg is not 29% of a 1 gig interface, its .29%.

check out the aggregate plugin/function

I'm going to take a wild guess and say you did your update on the morning of the 13th. Did you backup your database before the upgrade? Did you restore it after the upgrade?

what does the graph look like for this time slot?

If you have changed the script and in particular the way the variables are output from the script into your graph template then try ripping out the graph and rebuilding it.

I am aiming for August now, being realistic.

I'm curious how things are going. Is there light at the end of the proverbial tunnel?

Looking at the image screen shot it looks as if the device is only reporting traffic going one way on that particular interface. I know with some cisco devices they do interfaces that act like this, in particular UBR's do this with upstream and down stream interfaces. What does the device itself say...

I want to thank you. Between what you showed me and the use of our production system, a lab system, and a look through the cacti schema I was able to get my templates fixed. Very much appreciated.
