weird issue with graph tittle

Post by marbeli »

Hello humans,

I have this weird problem that I never had before. When I add a new graph, the title is all messed up and not respecting the tittle in my graph template.

Now if I check "Use Per-Graph Value (Ignore this Value)" and wait one cycle then remove the check, the right title is displayed on my graph.

any idea what this could be?

thankyou

Earthling,

Post a picture of the graph template, graph via graph management and the graph debugging output.

OK

GigabitRthernet/28 doesn't mean anything.  looks like 28 is the index number of the graph

by the way, there is no data because I just created the graph, otherwise this is not the problem, only the title.

On a data query, the title is usually governed by the "Suggested Names" section of that data query. Find it explained at http://docs.cacti.net/manual:087:3a_adv ... data_query

it solves the problem if I edit the suggested title in data queries. But it still doesn't work properly because I shouldn't have to do that if it is specified in the graph template.
