[phalek]

Will be posted soon.

The beta version has been tested successfully, the release version has not been fully tested yet.

[phalek]

CereusReporting 1.76.32 is compatible with Cacti 0.8.7h.

[phalek]

The next upcoming version of CereusReporting will add several new features:

- Create SLA reports based on Thold thresholds
- Add SQL Reports from remote database servers
- Add support for the "Maint" plugin ( add maintenance windows for devices )

Stay tuned !

[phalek]

A first step towards the next version has been accomplished by adding support for Windows Services availability data.

Attached is a screenshot of an early version of this feature:

Here's an example report which includes the Windows Services Availability chart ( on the very last page ).

[phalek]

WinServices is nearly complete now.

The upcoming release will also support mutiple SLA times for a host ( e.g. Mo -> 00:00 - 03:00, 04:00-23:59, Tue-Sun -> 00:00-23:59 )

It will also be possible to create special tree items which can display Weathermaps, Thold data or Availability data. See the attached screenshots for a preview.

Thold Data:

Any help appreciated thanks.

Hi

Can you first check if the following table contains any items:

plugin_nmidCreatePDF_Availability_SLATimeFrame_Table

if not, please execute the following in the mysql cli:

Code: Select all

INSERT INTO `plugin_nmidCreatePDF_Availability_SLATimeFrame_Table` (`id`,`defaultDays`,`defaultStartTime`,`defaultEndTime`,`shortDescription`,`longDescription` ) VALUES (1,'Mon,Tue,Wed,Thu,Fri,Sat,Sun','00:00','23:59','24x7','Default SLA TimeFrame');

[brightm]

I can't actually see that table at all (assuming it's in the cacti database). Will the command you gave me create the table?

Thanks

[phalek]

No, it should be installed/created when you install and enable the plugin. Trreinstalling it

[brightm]

Tried that -no go. Is there a way of manually doing it, by importing the sql db?

Thanks

[phalek]

Is your DB user able to create tables in the DB, e.g do you have other plugins installed ?

What is the "Debug Info" page saying in regard to the tables ( at the bottom of that page ).

Unfortunately, there's no SQL file for importing

[brightm]

Yes installed plugins before with no problem but maybe somethings up with the permissions now.

Sorry where's the debug info found?

Thanks

[phalek]

Once installed, it can be found in the menu.

[brightm]

Thanks as below for some reason the tables aren't being created:
