Graphs/RRDs Failing To Update

Post by h1d3m3 »

Things were going fine for months, but now the graphs are not updating with new data. (nothing has changed on the server).

When running cmd.php manually, it looks like the snmp gets work, but then I get this error and all processing stops:

snmp: 172.16.4.10:161, dsname: wl_xq_system_svc, oid: .1.3.6.1.4.1.140.625.180.1.40.32.48.48.98.54.100.53.51.50.50.53.57.98.100.54.98.55.98.51.54.57.98.97.56.52.99.54.55.56.48.98.98.100, value: 366717
update /monitor/cacti/cacti-0.8.5a/rra/rex_load_1min_647.rrd --template load_1min N:1.37
File size limit exceeded

Any ideas?

- Linux rex 2.4.20-9 #1 Wed Apr 2 13:42:50 EST 2003 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
- cacti-0.8.5
- /usr/bin/mysql Ver 11.18 Distrib 3.23.58, for redhat-linux-gnu (i386)

File Size Limit exceeded, Maybe this is a setting somewhere in cacti ?

My guess was that this had to do with mysql rather than rrd or php. Is there a way to tell?

If no configuration files, versions or settings have changed, it sounds like you are htting a limit on the system side.

Just for giggles, try creating a file ( as the cacti user) in the rra directory example: date > testfile

If it does not let you, than the problem may be either a quota or inode setting on your system. If you can create the file, check your rrd.log file size, it may be maxed out (my system limit for rrd.log is 2Gb.)

Thanks for the pointer. Yes, it was cacti working TOO well :-)

Cool.

I forget to mention.... add <cacti path>/log/rrd.log to your log rotation and your system will keep the rrd.log from getting out of hand
