Problem with thold plugin

Post by caio.cesar »

Hi there!

I have a problem with the thold plugin... The "current" value is not set for the hosts. I am not receiving thold alerts because of this issue.

As you can see on the image 1, the thold is for 90% of usage (disk) and the host is using 99,7%.

On the thold properties, I still can't have any information about the current status of my servers.

Any idea?

Don't use the CDEF. The CDEF don't work like you would like them to. I would suggest that you use the Percentage method. Then, you will be fine. This is available in the latest 0.4.1 release.

For those wondering, I'm still here, but lost in the shadows. Yearning for less bugs. Who want's a Cacti 1.3/2.0? Streams anyone?

Edit your template and check your Data Field, make sure it's using hdd_used. Then change the Percent Datasource from hdd_used to hdd_total.

Yes you do, it's under Data Manipulation in the template. I can see it in your screenshot.
