Help with data query

Post by abellanger »

My apologies for the long post, but I’m trying to be as complete as possible. I’m fairly new to Cacti, and this is my first foray into creating a custom data query, so please excuse my ignorance. I’ve been at this for quite a while and feel close, but frustrated.

I have an two indexless oids that I’d like to gather data from.

....29.<index> is one of the sets of data I’m looking to collect.
....25.<index> is another.
Here is a walk of the two oids:

Code: Select all

Here is what I have for the xml. I don’t need a name for each index – the index number has meaning to me.
Problems: When I load the data query, it ignores the two output fields. Interestingly, it picks them up when they’re specified as input instead.

Code: Select all

Here is the debug for the data query. You can see the it correctly parses the indexes, however it seems to ignore the two output fields and I can’t figure out why. As I said earlier, if I change them to input, it picks them up with the correct values, but I intend to be graphing them.

The Regexp is wrong. It should catch the last two OID tupels.
