Under 100 calls , I don't have problem to graph it.

Hi

Have a look at your data template for those graphs. Maybe the max value is set to 100. If you change to 0 this will any you to go up to any number. You can also put a meaningful number in there in case you don't want to get massive spikes.

Cheers

Dear Jay,

Thanks for your comments , but It looks not working.

Our real data is as below.
SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.28029.11.3.1.2.1 = INTEGER: 87
SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.28029.11.3.1.2.2 = INTEGER: 114

On Data Source Item
Minimum Value
Use Per-Data Source Value (Ignore this Value) : No Check box and 0
Maximum Value
Use Per-Data Source Value (Ignore this Value) : No Check box and 0
Data Source Type
Use Per-Data Source Value (Ignore this Value) : No Check box and Gauge
Heartbeat
Use Per-Data Source Value (Ignore this Value) : Checked Box and 600

Dear All,

Please point me out what are wrong on my templates or Data source.

When current calls are under 100 calls . graph has no issue , but when it is over 100 , it can't graph it.

First, please check 'Data Source Debug'.
(Devices -> [your device] -> Data Source List -> [data source with this issue])

When you click 'Turn On Data Source Debug Mode', you can see the lines like this:

Code: Select all

/usr/local/bin/rrdtool create \
/var/www/cacti/rra/xxxxx.rrd \
--step 300  \
DS:Data_Source_Name:GAUGE:600:0:U \
RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:6:19200 \
RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:24:4800 \
...
'0:U' means 'minimum = 0' and 'maximum = not determined'.

But next, if you examined the actual rrd files, I guess that it differs from the above..

Code: Select all

# rrdtool info /var/www/cacti/rra/xxxxx.rrd | grep max
ds[Data_Source_Name].max = 1.0000000000e+02
If so, try this:

Code: Select all

# rrdtool tune /var/www/cacti/rra/xxxxx.rrd --maximum Data_Source_Name:U
If succeeded, you'll see 'NaN' for max value.

Or if you don't care about losing the past data, you may delete the graph and datasource from GUI, and re-create that.

Thanks for your valuable comments.

As you see my graph , I have three graph , Signal_1 & Signal_2 and Total ( S_1+ S_2).

Data Source Debug

/usr/bin/rrdtool create \
/var/www/html/cacti/rra/mera_ts1_snmp_oid_46.rrd \
--step 300 \
DS:Sig1_active_call:GAUGE:600:0:100 \
RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:600 \
RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:6:700 \
RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:24:775 \
RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:288:797 \
RRA:MAX:0.5:1:600 \
RRA:MAX:0.5:6:700 \
RRA:MAX:0.5:24:775 \
RRA:MAX:0.5:288:797 \


Data Source Debug

/usr/bin/rrdtool create \
/var/www/html/cacti/rra/mera_ts1_sig2_active_call_72.rrd \
--step 300 \
DS:Sig2_active_call:GAUGE:600:0:U \
RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:600 \
RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:6:700 \
RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:24:775 \
RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:288:797 \

RRA:MAX:0.5:1:600 \
RRA:MAX:0.5:6:700 \
RRA:MAX:0.5:24:775 \
RRA:MAX:0.5:288:797 \

I can't find where is wrong data(100) in Sig1_active_call .
