Please increase the Data Query field length as well. Perform a Reload of that Data Query and recreate that graph (you may "Reapply Suggested Names" from Graph Management instead).

Then please choose the "Bytes" Graph when creating the traffic graph instead of the "Bits" Graph

You are not too clear as to what's wrong. You mind knows, but the translation to the keyboard is broken. In other words, be more specific.

I am sorry for my lousy english.I try my best to explain & give more details of my issue.

Please refer to config.jpg for my cacti configuration.I installed my cacti on CentOS 5.2.

I am using SNMP Mounted partition(associated data queries) to monitor disk usage for 3 Win2k3 servers & 1 Linux server. SNMP service has been enabled for all servers..however 2 win2k3 servers graphs does not display correctly. either the used or total space value is missing. Please refer to disk_1.jpg & disk_2.jpg. i have tried to delete the graph & recreate but it didnt help. I also changed the snmp timeout to 6000 but didnt help.

hopefully my explanation is clear enough for someone to understand and assist me with a solution..Thank you in advanced :D

What does your Cacti Log look like? Do you possibly have two cron's running? What about traffic graphs? Did you upgrade from a previous version of Cacti?

Hi TheWitness,

i only have one cron job running for cacti.the other cron jobs are for awstats.

*/5 * * * * /usr/bin/php /var/www/html/cacti/poller.php --force > /dev/null 2>&1

traffic graph is fine for all the servers.. The cacti log is fine..pls refer to cacti_log.jpg.

i fresh install cacti...first time use it..

FYI,i also graph physical memory for all servers using SNMP Get Mounted Partitions.

anything i need to check?

The Windows Disk Space Graphs often drop out due to slow response of windows. Increase timeout and retry

hi gandalf,

May i know which timeout setting are you referring to?
is it "configuration -> Settings ->SNMP Timeout? Currently the value is 500...what is the recommended value?

thank you!!

This one is the system wide default. No need to change that. Instead, please change the timeout value on the host edit screen for the windows host. There's a mass change "action" as well
