Howie:

Please let me know if it works for you. I tried to install it on windows cacti but did not work for me.

thanks,

can you post pre-patched files as I am running cacti on W2k3 and cannot use the Patch command to patch the current cacti files.

thanks,

Install Cygwin and patchutils. Make sure if you are installing cygwin to take the defaults other than this set of utilities. If you install everything, that's quite a bit. The default install is pretty compact.

Quite all patches are very small. So you max simply use your favorite editor to do the work. Only one of them is a bit bigger, moving a block of code to a different file.

I'm not using thold. So can you please elaborate how this should work? I know that there are thold templates as well; I thought they'd do the job

Yes - but what would be great is if the following worked:

1. I create a new host, appy a host template, and enter SNMP details.
2. Autom8 creates graphs as necessary(DONE)
3. Autom8 assigns the host.graphs to a tree (DONE
4. Autom8 applies appropriate thold templates to the newly created datasources. (WISH!)

I think it might tie in with some thold wishes I have though - my thold (based on an older version) has multiple, named, templates per-DS which I think is different from how newer tholds do it. So maybe it's a very personal wish.

You are correct that thold has templates, but there's no easy way (that I know of) to have it re-apply when new interfaces are enabled, or new hosts created.

From what i saw the function create_all_header_nodes is called with the id of the graph (1172) but it's designed to be called with the host id (179) so the SQL queries give an empty result.
Could it be that in line 505 of autom8_functions.php the WHERE statement should be on the graph ID instead of the host ID ?
Regards,

Please show me the complete rule that you've created to do this.

EDIT: This is no longer needed

I just published V0.31

--- 0.31 ---
- fix: Move all patches to a cacti-version-dependant sub-directory
Add patches for 087e
- fix: sql fix for create_dq_graphs (courtesy: brylant)
- fix: creating tree entries for graphs fixed (coutesy: grazog)
- fix: Tree Rule Items moveup/down fixed
- feature: logging for adding objects (howie): tracing is flagged with AUTOM8 TRACE (to be removed later)
AUTOM8 TRACE is logged at POLLER_VERBOSITY_MEDIUM and higher
adding objects is flagged AUTOM8 and always logged

Hello,
Thanks for the update.
the host patched file for 0.8.7e didn't work, i added the hook manually.

I still encounter a problem with graph tree rules.
I made a custom rule to add several graph to a tree entry based on the application name.
Here is the tree rule to extract the application name from the graph title.
6 | 4 | 1 | graph_templates_graph.title_cache | 0 | 1 | NULL | ^(.*)\s*-\s*Traffic\s*-\s*VS\s*-\s*([a-zA-Z0-9]*)\s*-(.*) | ${2}
The results in the the show created tree looks ok.
But I have all the graph added to one tree entry only
I made an example with two graphs one Blackberry and one proxy that should be added to a "blackberry" tree and "proxy" tree.
The graph that should be added to Blackberry was instead added to Proxy

Here are the cacti logs :

Great plugin! I have one problem thou. After I have set my "graph rules" and add a device I get the following error message:

Code: Select all

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare api_tree_item_save() (previously declared in /usr/share/cacti/site/lib/api_tree.php:25) in /usr/share/cacti/site/lib/api_automation_tools.php on line 131

The device is added and the autom8 plugin do its job. But something is obviously wrong. Im not a programmer so unfortunately i can't figure out how to solve this issue. Any ideas?

I'm quite sure that you missed to run at least one of the provided patches.

I think you are correct, problem is i skipped the cli.patch because i didn't understand what to do when i got prompet "File to patch:". Im suppose to patch the a number of iles in the "cli" folder right? Problem is i cant find where its located, im not even sure i have it.

I know this topic have been discussed before. But it didn't solve my problem. But now everything works fine for me, except this stupid error...

Had you got spare time to look at the add graph on custom tree problem ?

The cli folder is in the root cacti folder. BUT, if you use the command line in the README file then patch should not be asking you for a filename - it should know. The filename is in the patch file header.
