Good morning,
We´ve installed nmidDataExport plugin to Cacti, but CSV file only shows "Date" column. What can be the problem?

Re: nmidDataExport plugin released
Hi,
The plugin can currently only export the in- and outbound interface data.
May this be the issue ?

Hi,
The plugin only exports the data for the interface template, nothing else is included right now.

Re: nmidDataExport plugin released
Hello,
I've installed the plugins and running well. However the data capture is not incrementing very well. Every about one hour , old data is rewritten with the new data.
Example below :
How to capture the data and kept it for 1 month ? I want to use it for 95 percentile calculation.
Edit : I post to fast. So I have to figure out some script to parse 1 hour data to be processed later.
Any pointer maybe ?
Thank you

Re: nmidDataExport plugin released
The timerange can be selected from the settings. Currently it only support up to 1 day of data. In order to add some new time-ranges, you can change the lines starting from line number 328 in the setup.php file to look like this:
Not sure what the impact on the polling time will be though, as it is going to export the data every 1 or 5 minutes ...
Alternatively, you can change the filename to have a timestamp in it.
Change the following code at around line 226 from this:
to this:
make sure to cleanup that directory after you've read-in the data...
Code: Select all
"nmid_de_datatimerange" => array(
"friendly_name" => "Data Time Range",
"description" => "The time range of the data.",
"method" => "drop_array",
"default" => "3600",
"array" => array(
"300" => "5 minutes",
"900" => "15 minutes",
"1800" => "30 minutes",
"2700" => "45 minutes",
"3600" => "1 hour",
"7200" => "2 hour",
"43200" => "12 hour",
"86400" => "1 day"
"604800" => "1 week"
"2592000" => "30 days"
"31536000" => "1 year"
)
),
Alternatively, you can change the filename to have a timestamp in it.
Change the following code at around line 226 from this:
Code: Select all
/* Make graph title the suggested file name */
if ( is_array( $xport_array[ "meta" ] ) ) {
$filename = $hostname.'_'.$xport_array[ "meta" ][ "host_id" ] . '_' . $xport_array[ "meta" ][ "local_graph_id" ] . $fileending;
}
else {
$filename = 'graph_export'.$fileending;
}
Code: Select all
/* Make graph title the suggested file name */
if ( is_array( $xport_array[ "meta" ] ) ) {
$filename = $hostname.'_'.$xport_array[ "meta" ][ "host_id" ] . '_' . $xport_array[ "meta" ][ "local_graph_id" ] . '_' . time() . $fileending;
}
else {
$filename = 'graph_export' . '_' . time() . $fileending;
}

Re: nmidDataExport plugin released
Hello Phalek
Thanks for the response.
Line 328 on setup.php start with :
So I put the above definition down below nmid_de_exportDir array
And change default to : 2592000
The web page goes blank after I disable and enable the plugins.
So I choose second alternative, It works created the timestamp file every 5 min but the rrdtool process took a lot cpu resources all the time, leaving the system almost inaccesible.
First Run
==========
Second Run and after.
======================
I noticed every rrdtool process running before is not closed , so it just hang after it process everytime it run. At the end of the day, rrdtool process take a lot of hit in the system so I have to restart the machine to refresh all the hanging process.
Any other idea or pointer ?
Edit : I make it work with first method , little typo here and there in the code. Let see the results.
Thank

Re: nmidDataExport plugin released
It should look like this:
and make sure there's no other entry for the "nmid_de_datatimerange" in there.
Code: Select all
"nmid_de_exportDir" => array(
"friendly_name" => 'Export Directory',
"description" => 'The directory where to export the files.',
"method" => "textbox",
"default" => dirname(__FILE__) . '/export/',
"max_length" => 255
),
"nmid_de_datatimerange" => array(
"friendly_name" => "Data Time Range",
"description" => "The time range of the data.",
"method" => "drop_array",
"default" => "2592000",
"array" => array(
"300" => "5 minutes",
"900" => "15 minutes",
"1800" => "30 minutes",
"2700" => "45 minutes",
"3600" => "1 hour",
"7200" => "2 hour",
"43200" => "12 hour",
"86400" => "1 day",
"604800" => "1 week",
"2592000" => "30 days",
"31536000" => "1 year"
)

Re: nmidDataExport plugin released
Hi phalek,
Yes exactly, I've added missing comma's at the end of last lines. And change the correct time range in NMID menu in Settings.
The whole section is like below :
But the results still the same.
Please check.
Thank you.

I think I found it:
At Line 220, change this:
to this:
At Line 220, change this:
Code: Select all
$xport_array = @rrdtool_function_xport($s_ExportItem[ "lgid" ], $s_ExportItem[ "rraid" ], $graph_data_array, $xport_meta);
Code: Select all
