Graph Title change

[eviltrooper]

Hello,

i create graphs for my interfaces on cisco switches..

so that he shows me "Traffic - Gig 0/1 - Servername"

i edit the "Data Queries" - "SNMP - Interface Statistics" - "In/Out Bits" the

"Graph Template - Interface - Traffic (bits/sec)"

to this

title Traffic - |query_ifName| - |query_ifalias|

but if i chance the "ifalias" on my switch from "Servername" to "testinterface" or something. How can i move cacti to change automatic my Graph title??

anyone an idea?

To apply changes to existing graphs, try:

1) Choose graph(s) in Graph Management
2) Select "Reapply Suggested Names" and click [Go]

only works on one interface.. if i change another.. nothing happens

or do i have to wait 5 minute for an new poll???

Then, try this:

1) Devices -> your device
2) At the bottom of screen, in "Associated Data Queries", click green circle icon ("Reload Data Query")
3) Do the above (=Reapply Suggested Names)

This works..

put on every change i must do this steps??

i change the "Re-Index Method" to "verify all Fields" because "uptime goes backwards" is not a godd option to me..

i hope "verify all field" will re-index every time a new poll will start !?

can i use this CLI command

"php5 host.php?action=query_reload&id=1&host_id=237"
for all my hosts?

Probably you should so -- when you have changed interface's description, created new VLAN, etc.

I'm not sure, sorry.

"php5 host.php?action=query_reload&id=1&host_id=237"

From CLI, use 'cacti/cli/poller_reindex_hosts.php'.

Thanks very much.

Note: Stop the Poller during Re-Indexing Re-Indexing interferes with the poller operation. Please make sure, that the poller is not running and will not start during a reindex operation

what if when cacti starts polling???

or shoud i change my crontab for polling so that he dont poll on Midnight or an half an hour an do mit reindexing stuff.?

Because we change often our Alias on your Switches.
