Refresh interface descriptions through script?

[greginmadison]

I've got about 1400 Cisco routers and switches and would like a way to automate the refresh of the device interfaces so that it picks up the new descriptions for my Cisco router/switch interfaces.

How can this be done instead of selecting each device and clicking on the green circle under the Associated Data Queries for SNMP- Interface Statistics?

I did find the thread http://forums.cacti.net/viewtopic.php?t ... highlight=

But am unclear on the use of poller_reindex_hosts.php and then the poller_graphs_reapply_names.php

Thanks in advanced for any help you may have.

Found the answer after a google search of the Cacti forms. The command is php /www/htdocs/cacti/cli/poller_reindex_hosts.php -id=All

But must stop the poller from running before executing this command.
