[solved] how to run add new device script

Post by GuyN »

Hi to all

I installed cacti 0.8.8a on windows server 2008 using the windows installer from this forum.
I added new device and everything works fine.
Now I want to add multiple devices to monitor.
I found the "script add_device.php" on the cacti website, yet I don't know how to run it on my windows OS.

thanks

There are a bunch of commandline scripts in the /cacti/cli/ directory for automation. Look into those first.

CLI = Command Line Interface.

These scripts are not meant to be run interactively with a GUI. You run them at the command prompt. http://docs.cacti.net/manual:088:6_refe ... ne_scripts
