cacti DB failed, updgrade lost everything

[netniV]

If you are using the latest Cacti, make sure you have the latest plugin for monitor from the repo too. If you do, I'll take a look at the line in question but generally $config is globally defined so shouldn't be having issues.

I looked at the file and couldn't figure out what was wrong. its weird.. I got one notification about a downed device.. but not the one im trying to force getting a notification on.. its NOT on.. and cacti says "UP" LOL

[netniV]

Do you have thold installed as well? Make sure that is also up to date. If you are working with the up to date versions, I'll run through some things to check tomorrow

[mrscary]

yeah I got the latest from github. I had to get a new functions.php for thold to install.

there are more than 0 down.. LOL sad to say that but I know there's one downed device I downed on purpose for testing.
Monitor Device Monitoring Active The Cacti Group 2.2
Thold Thresholds Active The Cacti Group 1.0.4

Well that stats line comes from this:

$total_hosts = db_fetch_cell_prepared('SELECT count(*)
FROM host
WHERE disabled=""
AND poller_id = ?',
array($config['poller_id']));

$down_hosts = db_fetch_cell_prepared('SELECT count(*)
FROM host
WHERE status=1
AND disabled=""
AND poller_id = ?',
array($config['poller_id']));

That status = 1 is what is causing it to think those devices are down. Something definitely set them as down. The full array of known values are:

Code: Select all

array(
        0 => 'deviceUnknown',
        1 => 'deviceDown',
        2 => 'deviceRecovering',
        3 => 'deviceUp',
        4 => 'deviceThreshold',
        5 => 'deviceDownMuted',
        6 => 'deviceUnmonitored',
        7 => 'deviceWarning',
        8 => 'deviceAlert',
)

However, other plugins can set a device status too

the only plug ins on the plug page I have enabled are thold and monitor

[mrscary]

looks like monitor is now working! awesome

[netniV]

So, do we have a fully working system now? You may also want to download the version of monitor I have here:
https://github.com/netniV/plugin_monito ... /tag/28-45

It fixes a problem with displaying things when they have an invalid status (also adds the ability to auto-monitor devices added via cli)

[mrscary]

it appears all is working.. thank you so much for your efforts!
I have hp printer that is being a PITA and not giving me toner status.. that's new.. LOL same model printers work for other devices, so its probably that printer's internal issue.. dang printers.

[netniV]

tbh it sounds like you did far more work than i did lol

[mrscary]

I wasn't gonna give in.. I was determined to keep my data! LOL

[mrscary]

this is a plug in I found particularly useful
https://docs.cacti.net/userplugin:intropage

question about this plug in.. by default puts all the boxes in one row.. but the screen shot shown is much nicer.. how does one change this layout?

[netniV]

are you using the latest version from github?

[mrscary]

yeah. it renders find in firefox. but not in IE.. (I know.. don't flame the IE user LOL)

[netniV]

I'd have to defer to the author on that one.

If you can let me know what you think to this release of QuickTree:
https://github.com/netniV/cacti-quicktr ... 1.0-beta.2

It's had quite a bit of a rework but it's still the same underlying functionality
