Manage Plugin 0.6.2 for monitoring networks, servers...

[bdearlove]

Hi STNT,
You mentioned at the end of your message that you solved it. What did you have to do to solve it? Thanks!

[STnT]

You have to import some files
(located in tcp.zip)
the 3 under the basedir you import with the template importer (via webinterface)
the once under resource/script-server you place in <cactibasedir>/resource/script-server
the once under scripts in <cactibasedir>/scripts/

and you have to enable LAST in all of the RRA's

Is this plugin for Linux or Windows ?

I'm seeing a weird issue lately.

When devices reboot, they go "down" in manage and all their services,
wich is normal.

But when the device is back up, and the services are reporting "1" again, manage does not bring the device back nor the services.

When I go to the device config in cacti, disable manage, save, enable manage, save again. Then the device is "online" and all services also.

Gilles tells me he's working on a new version, but he has been very silent lately.

To make manage work with other plugins that use the Device Action Dropdown, please change function manage_device_action_prepare and include

Code: Select all

	return $save;			# required for next hook in chain

as the last statement of this function

Does this plugin only monitor Windows and/or Linux boxes, or does it monitor anything and everything?

Also, by the looks of the screenshot it allows you to send host down/up notification e-mails on a host by host basis (as opposed to one e-mail for all devices), is this correct?

[MrRat]

1. It will monitor whatever host you want to monitor.
2. Yes you can set notifications for devices on a host by host basis.

Excellent, that is exactly what I am after. Thanks a lot for the quick reply.

Does anyone know of an alternative place where I can download this plugin? I am downloading it from the link in the first post in this thread but it is only going at 200 bytes per second and is going to take 2 hours to complete (though it keeps dropping out so I don't know if I will even get it all)

[MrRat]

I can downlod it in less than 1sec here.

I can downlod it in less than 1sec here.

It must be my ISP... I have issues playing PS3 on line as well, but then I can also download a Centos ISO at 800kb/sec.

  Global Plugin Settings (settings - v0.5)
  syslog
  Host Info (hostinfo - v0.2)
  memorize plugin for cacti (memorize - v0.2)
  status

But just one question, when I edit any Device I want manage, regardless of what I select for TCP Ports Template it just sets it to "none" after I save it - why is that? Going to my "manage" tab I see my devices but they are not showing any tcp port check information.

I followed the steps outlined on Page 1 of this thread, but maybe I've missed something.


Thanks - J.
