RRD files doesn't create

Post by hinojosa89 »

Hi to all
We are trying to monitor some w2003 servers, We create 2 graphs, one for cpu and another for memory. The first work perfect but for the second we saw that the rrd file is not created. We read many post in the forum but we don't find any solution.

Thnaks.

Please find the OID for that reading (e.g. from System Utilities -> View Poller Cache) and run an snmpget manually against that OID to see if the device responds to it. See second link of my sig for more

When i go to the log file i can see that it is working fine, but the problem it is that the rrd file doesn't create. I'm desesperated because i read many post and of course i read the second link but i can't find any answer.

Any help???

i am having the same problem as this, actually, in case you havnt noticed, I am having the same problem in about 3 or 4 different topics here.

I ran the snmpget manuall against an OID as you had mentioned to the previous user and got this ...

-=(( cactiuser = Samba ))=-
( /var/www/html/cacti/scripts )
$ snmpget -c 192.168.15.2 -v 2c 192.168.15.2 .1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11.51.0
UCD-SNMP-MIB::ssCpuRawNice.0 1043005

I'm not totally sure if that is a desired return. I also read the instructions per the 2nd link on your sig and failed at the php test. i get this ....

-=(( cactiuser = Samba ))=-
( /var/www/html/cacti )
$ php -q cmd.php 14 14

-=(( cactiuser = Samba ))=-
( /var/www/html/cacti )
$

Nothin....

if i run the cmd.php alone i get this ...

-=(( cactiuser = Samba ))=-
( /var/www/html/cacti )
$ php cmd.php
X-Powered-By: PHP/5.2.1
Content-type: text/html


-=(( cactiuser = Samba ))=-
( /var/www/html/cacti )
$

and poller.php as crontab would run...

-=(( cactiuser = Samba ))=-
( /var/www/html/cacti )
$ php poller.php
X-Powered-By: PHP/5.2.1
Content-type: text/html


-=(( cactiuser = Samba ))=-
( /var/www/html/cacti )
$


Any clues on what I can do to get past this. I think the whole cmd.php not running properly with the poll is what is preventing me from getting graphs to produce properly.

Thanks 8)

In my case all is working fine, because now i graph more or less about 50 or 60 graphs, and it is creating rrd files ok, but with this not, and i can't find anything wrong.

Please run again in DEBUG mode and find the "rrdtool update" statement for your example above. Please run this from cli, replacing the timestamp by an "N" and post results

Yep, correct answer, I was blind.
What do you get if running spine using --verbosity=5 against this host only?

I'm having the same problem.

I got correct values from snmp queries but graphs are not created.

Debugging i got this statement creating the rrd file:

Code: Select all

c:/rrdtool/rrdtool.exe create C:/cacti/rra/sw_inet_dmzext_1_traffic_in_57.rrd --step 60 DS:traffic_in:COUNTER:120:0:100000000 DS:traffic_out:COUNTER:120:0:100000000 DS:traffic_out:COUNTER:120:0:100000000 DS:traffic_in:COUNTER:120:0:100000000 RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:500 RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:600 RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:6:700 RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:24:775 RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:288:797 RRA:MAX:0.5:1:500 RRA:MAX:0.5:1:600 RRA:MAX:0.5:6:700 RRA:MAX:0.5:24:775 RRA:MAX:0.5:288:797
But executing it from command line got a "ERROR: Duplicate DS name: traffic_out".

How can i fix this error?

Thanks in advance:)

That's a very old, well known error. And there's a sticky topic for it in the General Forum
