Cisco Environmental Monitoring (Temp, Voltage, Fan, Power)

[r_kleineisel]

It seems that for the Cisco 4500 the data sources are not created correctly.

For a 4506, which has 3 inlet and 3 outlet temp sensors I get them correctly in the "New Graphs" window. When I select them and click "Create" I get the graphs and data sources, but the data sources are empty. On the data source page I get:

Custom data
Index Type Data query data sources must be created through New Graphs.
Index Value
Output Type ID Data query data sources must be created through New Graphs.

The graph management page in graph debug mode says "ERROR: opening '/var/www/cacti/rra/xxxxx_tempstatval_4408.rrd': No such file or directory"

For the Cisco 6506, 3560, 2960s it works fine.

I've got the exact same problem on a 4900m, which is running the same software as a 4500 apparently. I'm going to dig into it - but if you fixed this please let me know!

[gandalf]

Does an snmpwalk show valid data for those OIDs?
R.

[eschoeller]

Yeah, it does - but I think the indexes are the problem:

Code: Select all

snmpwalk -m ALL -v2c -c public 1.2.4.5 .1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.13.1.3.1
CISCO-ENVMON-MIB::ciscoEnvMonTemperatureStatusDescr.1 = STRING: air outlet

CISCO-ENVMON-MIB::ciscoEnvMonTemperatureStatusDescr.12 = STRING: air inlet
CISCO-ENVMON-MIB::ciscoEnvMonTemperatureStatusValue.1 = Gauge32: 50 degrees Celsius
CISCO-ENVMON-MIB::ciscoEnvMonTemperatureStatusValue.2 = Gauge32: 37 degrees Celsius
CISCO-ENVMON-MIB::ciscoEnvMonTemperatureStatusValue.11 = Gauge32: 36 degrees Celsius
CISCO-ENVMON-MIB::ciscoEnvMonTemperatureStatusValue.12 = Gauge32: 34 degrees Celsius
CISCO-ENVMON-MIB::ciscoEnvMonTemperatureThreshold.1 = INTEGER: 71 degrees Celsius
CISCO-ENVMON-MIB::ciscoEnvMonTemperatureThreshold.2 = INTEGER: 59 degrees Celsius
CISCO-ENVMON-MIB::ciscoEnvMonTemperatureThreshold.11 = INTEGER: 58 degrees Celsius
CISCO-ENVMON-MIB::ciscoEnvMonTemperatureThreshold.12 = INTEGER: 57 degrees Celsius
CISCO-ENVMON-MIB::ciscoEnvMonTemperatureLastShutdown.1 = INTEGER: 0 degrees Celsius
CISCO-ENVMON-MIB::ciscoEnvMonTemperatureLastShutdown.2 = INTEGER: 0 degrees Celsius
CISCO-ENVMON-MIB::ciscoEnvMonTemperatureLastShutdown.11 = INTEGER: 0 degrees Celsius
CISCO-ENVMON-MIB::ciscoEnvMonTemperatureLastShutdown.12 = INTEGER: 0 degrees Celsius
CISCO-ENVMON-MIB::ciscoEnvMonTemperatureState.1 = INTEGER: normal(1)
CISCO-ENVMON-MIB::ciscoEnvMonTemperatureState.2 = INTEGER: normal(1)
CISCO-ENVMON-MIB::ciscoEnvMonTemperatureState.11 = INTEGER: normal(1)
CISCO-ENVMON-MIB::ciscoEnvMonTemperatureState.12 = INTEGER: normal(1)

See we have index 1,2,11,12. My only thought is that somewhere deep inside Cacti this odd index ordering is tripping up the data query. I can't be certain, but I've been picking this template apart and tinkering with it and I just can't get it to start polling these data sources. We have a temperature problem I'm trying to resolve and I'm about to ditch the data query and create 4 separate data templates / graphs just to get it working. The better answer is certainly to fix the query so it will work for other users in the future.

Does it work with this query instead of original file (cisco_envmon_temp.xml) ?

This is quite fine. And I can't see, why cacti should not grab the data. Please go to the debugging steps at 2nd link of my sig. I want to see, what data the cacti poller sees and how the data is handled, then
R.

[eschoeller]

Same behavior with this updated xml file. The data sources are created, but the 'Data Source Path' is blank.
Output type ID and Index Type both indicate "Data query data sources must be created through New Graphs"
Index Value is blank. Here is the debug output from one run. I have disabled all the other hosts, and the 4 temperature sensors are the only graphs for this device (ID 272)

http://pastebin.com/PNTVjHB4

Now, If I enter an index value (I make an educated guess as to which on belongs where) and enter in 1,2,11,12 The data source path is populated. The Output Type ID and Index Type both still have the same message. Cacti still doesn't poll these data sources, and the RRDs are never created on disk.

upgrade to the 0.8.7h and install PIA3.0 patch now but the plugins can't be active, others seem work fine.

I love the function for Temp, Voltage etc..., but my Cacti is 0.8.7b with Ubuntu server 8.04, I installed the 0.8.7b use command "apt-get install cacti", the ubuntu platform do not have the newest version of Cacti, so who can help and how to upgrade my Cacti version to 0.8.7d to meet the template, thank you in advance.

[dslewitzke]

Ive also had some troubles with the temp and voltage graphs with the RRD tool saying the file is not available. I have gone and looked and in fact the file is not there. on importing the data source it is not creating the file in /var/www/html/rra/. any one else come across this issue?

Can anyone see why I wouldnt be getting the temp and threshold values on my devices. I get the state created fine.

Those outputs look correct. Do the graphs not contain data?

[MrRat]

The status graph gets created but not the actual temprature graph. I get a single graph for status "1" ok but thats it.

[BSOD2600]

You did tell cacti to create the temperature graph too, right? Selected the dropdown in the bottom right corner...

[MrRat]

Dropdown in the bottom right corner of what? I guess to be more clear, I wanted it to automatically create them as part of a host template.

[MrRat]

I got it working, rebuilt poller cache and created an autom8 graph rule to create them.
