Thold 2.x - Thresholding/Alerting module for cacti 8.6

[markske]

Very nice addon

I need to set a trigger for diskspace on 4000000000 but the config always change it to 2147483647

So how can I get this max trigger to an higher value

Hi: 2147483647 Lo: n/a BL: off

I have not enough knowledge but I changed the following in the mysql table
thay have default int(50)

I now it is not correct but it works for now in my env

thold_hi varchar(100) default NULL,
thold_low varchar(100) default NULL,
lastread varchar(100) default NULL,




ps, the login for guest is also not working for the threshld page

Hi

first of all, nice module, just what I needed - thanks.

I do have a problem with autocreating thresholds using thold2.1a, when using the link "auto generate thresholds" I get the folling error:

Update failed:

INSERT INTO thold (element, rra) VALUES (,
You have an error in your SQL syntax near ' ' at line 1

seems like it can't locate the element value (looked through the code and the value is that of $graph which means
$grapharr = mysql_fetch_array(mysql_query("SELECT local_graph_id FROM graph_templates_item WHERE task_item_id=$rrdlookup LIMIT 1"));
$graph = $grapharr["local_graph_id"];

)


Any ideas as to why this doesn't seam to work? If i manualy add "INSERT INTO thold (element, rra) VALUES (1, " throug a mysql manager (1 being a random number) and afterwards rerun the autocreate thresholds it work just fin.

thanks in advanced

Hi
I install cacti 0.8.6c and install thold2.0c like descibe in README.
Then,
I manually run this command:

[root@cacti-test /]# php /www/htdocs/cacti/thold/check-thold.php

And I got this errors:

[root@cacti-test /]# /www/php/bin/php /www/htdocs/cacti/thold/check-thold.php

Warning: main(../include/config.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /www/htdocs/cacti/thold/check-thold.php on line 25

Can anybody solve this??

We are using an old version of MRTG at the moment, and I had written a crued perl script to send threshold alerts to my boss and myself. I am building a new server and plan to run Cacti, so this is really cool.

Question is: Can you set, say, an 80% threshold on all graphs as a default, then set more specific thresholds for individual graphs, as needed? That would ROCK!

Thanks again.

So it appears that if I change the double quotes in _REQUEST["hostid"] to single quotes, _REQUEST['hostid'] that it fails LESS. Still works consistently if the first to If statements are removed, though this kills some functionality. What's the deal with "" or '' ?

I'm having this issue with IIS6 on W2K3 PHP5.

It seems like IE6 locks up but if you stop the page load and then view the source of the page you will see where in the code this page is breaking...

<snip>
<form name="THold" action=thold.php method=post>
<input type='hidden' name='rra' value='13'>
<input type='hidden' name='hostid' value='<br />
<b>Notice</b>: Undefined variable: hostid in <b>C:\NMS\cacti\thold.php</b> on line <b>82</b><br />
'>
Data Source Description: <br><strong>A-MGR - Process - System</strong><br><br>
<!-- Threshold: <br><input type='text' name='thold' size='10' maxlength='20' value="<br />
<b>Notice</b>: Undefined index: threshold in <b>C:\NMS\cacti\thold.php</b> on line <b>84</b><br />
" ><br>
-->

Somehow the page is losing the HOSTID var.

Just adding my .02

Well after a little expermenting on my side I think that there is something wrong with how thold.php calls graphs.

It all starts around line 106 (I made other changes so I'm not sure of the orginal line number)
<snip>
<img src="graph_image.php?local_graph_id=<?php echo $graph ?>&rra_id=1&graph_start=-32400&graph_height=100&graph_width=300&graph_nolegend=true">
</snip>

It looks like you can get 1 call to graph in this code then IIS6 will no longer produce grahps. You have to restart the IIS service to create any grahps anywhere in the site.

Maybe this should be re-coded to follow the graph_image.php, graph.php and the like. I'm bumping around in the code a little more to see if I can't find a workaround for us IIS6 users.

As of now the work around is to delete that line of code so thold.php does not try to generate that graph.

Hi mainstreetexpress!

I have the same problem/question here!

Anybody knows how can I delete/remove a threshold from a data source without delete/remove the respective data source itself?!

Thanks in advance!
(And sorry for my poor English!)

[markske]

Go to the console
select "Thresholds"
then klik on the number (or ID) of the line you want to delete

Hi everybody!

These are the settings for a specific data source:

- High threshold: 45;
- Low threshold: 40;

When the Current value is below the low threshold, or between the high threshold and the low threshold, everything works fine:

- "Console -> Thresholds" status page OK;
- syslog event OK;

When the Current value is above the high threshold:

- "Console -> Thresholds" status page OK;
- syslog event is "restored to normal"!!!;

Any idea?!

Thanks in advance!

php check-thold.php:
CactiTholdLog[32706]: HOST - XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX[used] restored to normal with 50 at trigger 1 out of 11

syslog:
Mar 31 10:10:04 (none) CactiTholdLog[32706]: HOST - XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX[used] restored to normal with 50 at trigger 1 out of 11

Cactid patch, that mails host state changes

use patch -p1 < thold.patch

Same patch for cactid-0.8.6d.

Cactid patch, that mails host state changes

use patch -p1 < thold.patch

I use this command and I patched my cactid.
Then I configure my cactid.
After that i use "make" command.
finally i use "make install" command to run my patched cactid but I get these result :

[root@cacti-test cacti-cactid-0.8.6c]# make install
source='util.c' object='util.o' libtool=no \
depfile='.deps/util.Po' tmpdepfile='.deps/util.TPo' \

util.c error: conflicting types for 'mail'
util.c error: previous implicit declaration of 'mail' was here
util.c2: warning: no newline at end of file
make: *** [util.o] Error 1

Here is cactid/util.c code from line 1326 to 1340:

Code: Select all

void mail(const char* address_list, const char* subject, const char* body) {
	char command[255];
	char message[255];
	
	sprintf(command, "/usr/lib/sendmail %s", address_list);
	FILE* fp;
	fp = popen(command, "w");
	if (fp) {
	    fprintf(fp, "To: %s\n", address_list);
	    fprintf(fp, "Subject: %s\n", subject);
	    fprintf(fp, "\n%s\n", body);
	
	    pclose(fp);
	}
}

I use 0.86.c
What is the problem?

[[asm]]

Dunno... i use:
$ cp cactid /usr/local/cactid
(don't start make install)
