I wonder if this could be used to create even more "Management" like reports with fabolous colors and charts to view for them ... ;-)

From my point of view it offers the opportunity to increase ReportIt's set of features to provide TopN reports people are requesting.

and it will (very soon - testing this afternoon) allow weathermap to do aggregate statistics much more quickly and reliably (but less flexibly) than by calling rrdtool for each.

I just found another small change for that patch - the second pair of sql_executes further down need to a small change:

Around line 500,

Code: Select all

db_execute($sql_last_prefix . $lastbuf . $sql_suffix);
should be

Code: Select all

db_execute($sql_last_prefix . $lastbuf . $sql_suffix_last);
otherwise the last bunch of DS won't get their calculated value updated.

I'm getting strange results for my monthly peak numbers. 100M links are showing as much as 200M as peak traffic, and more than one, on more than one different router...

I pull those numbers from the rrd. So maybe the function has issues. Can you take a peek? I'm OOO.

Has anyone looked into possibly passing the data through a 95th% calculation and storing it in the DB? Maybe some sort of a dynamic database that allows it to pull data after it has gone through a template?

Has anyone already implemented tracking the number of NaN values for a given time period? It would be useful when you want to validate that all the data sources are gathering information correctly?

DSStats presently requires PHP 5.2 (I think). I just turned off my 'dump to /dev/null' in the poller cron job, to debug something else, and I found 17000 of these per poller cycle(!):

PHP Notice: Use of undefined constant E_RECOVERABLE_ERROR - assumed 'E_RECOVERABLE_ERROR' in /var/www/docs/cacti/plugins/dsstats/setup.php on line 262

There was a similar problem in Boost it seems, and here's the simple solution.

PHP 5.1.6 (with backported patches) is the current version for CentOS/RHEL 5.
