[SOLVED] Boost + Weathermap

[Soup]

I recently installed boost, and as a result have had to enable "SET rrd_use_poller_output 1" on my weathermaps.

The issue now is, that my poller processes don't seem to stop running.... upwards of 40-50 of them running at one time.

If anyone can help, let me know what you need.

Thanks

Looks like the problem is with the amount of time it's taking to create the weathermaps.

Simply generating one maps takes up to 20 seconds. I'm looking to create about 15 maps

I'm guessing the delay is with weathermap pulling the data from the database instead of the RRD files. Anything I can do to speed that up?

Doing some more searching on here, I found the following solution:

I have two things to try.

1) Try running 2 cycles with DEBUG logging turned on. This will log a lot more information about what Weathermap is doing for each target. Specifically I'm interested in if it is 'missing' existing data, and trying to add new lines in weathermap_data each time through (which is why I said 2 cycles). It should also give some idea of where the big delay is.

2) Disable some of the extra queries made in the rrd plugin - this will stop things like cacti_graph_id being available in maps, but does reduce the number of queries per target. Look for the if statement that calls "UpdateCactiData" around line 180 in lib/datasources/WeatherMapDataSource_rrd.php and either remove it, or comment it out.

Thanks!!

My weathermaps now seem to be working for the most part, but I'm still seeing links with 0's on them, while the interfaces themselves have traffic.

looking at the weathermap_data table, I see values for "last_value" but nothing for "last_calc" (just 0's) actual graphs show the interfaces doing 3-4Gbit/second.
