Cacti

I did a search, (not real in depth) but was not able to find a guide to getting cacti going on 10.4 server. So, here is a quick intro to getting it running. First things first, go to this webpage http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/rrdtool/doc/rrdbuild.en.html and follow the instructions. I h...

Yep, have cleared it more than once, I am really stumped.
Thanks for responding! I was starting to think that no one read the post lately....

[5] command: perl /usr/local/www/data-dist/cacti/scripts/ping.pl 10.10.1.252, output: 0.875 RRDCMD: update '/usr/local/www/data-dist/cacti/rra/cisco_router_in_server_room_ping_1668.rrd' --template ping N:0.875 [22] command: perl /usr/local/www/data-dist/cacti/scripts/ping.pl 10.13.102.1, output: 4.3...

Anyone have any ideas on this one? Any one?

I switched to cactid 'cause cmd.php was flirting with 5 minutes to complete (it now takes under 30 seconds), now none of my ping graphs work. There seems to be data in the database, using rrdtool info <rrdname> shows information, and the date on the file is updated like the rest, but cacti graphs sh...

Use a CDEF to show colors and multiple graph items from one data source. ex. For my APC battery backup units, I want to know how warm they are. I have one data source, and 3 graph items. (In my situation, I convert from celsius to farenheit first) Here are cdefs that I use: This one will filter temp...

Thanks!!

Are you seeing the results in the log file? Is it showing N:U?
Do you have the max value set correctly for the ds?

I get the following error message when trying to rebuild the poller cache, Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in /usr/local/www/data-dist/cacti/include/config_settings.php on line 242 I can't find where this timeout value is set. I need to increase it so that my poller cache ...

I figured out how to do it, needed to use the limit function in the cdef and use only one data source. Was able to do the temp conversions and all with CDEF, but I sure wish that this was in the FAQ cause there are lots of things that I want to do this with and it would have saved me lots of time......

Rax, is there a tutorial somewhere on how to do this? You were able to do this with the school district,
http://www.bigspring.k12.pa.us/cacti/gr ... &tree_id=6
and others are too. I am sure that its simple, but obviously I have setup something wrong.

Make it look like this but show temps insted of ping times...

It seems that when cacti tries to update the info, it is using the wrong template. For example, if the data falls into the "normal" range of 18-26 degrees Celsius, it still tries to update with the high template. The high DS is from 27-100 degrees celsius. I THINK that this is the problem,...

I did some digging, the data is not being entered into the RRD eventhough cacti says that it is. Doing rrdtool info <database> shows all NaN for entries. Running cmd.php manually shows the same thing as tailing the logfile, it says that its updateing the rrd and it never does. Tried to manually upda...

I am trying to graph the battery temperature on my APC smartups, so I setup the ds template to have 3 datasources. -17C to 20C is called batt_temp_low, 20C to 26C is called batt_temp_normal, and 26C to 100C is called batt_temp_high. On the graphs, I use purple for the low, green for the normal, and ...
