Refresh information for a device

Post by pepj »

Hello

when I change for example a desciption of an interface in a router, Cacti don't change it in the graphs or "Data query field" for the view new graphs of the device -> Alias (IF-MIB).
It is normal, but in order to force him to change this I found two solution:
- create a new device (not very good)
- or click on "verbose query" in the device ... (that OK but we have to know it)

It would be nicer to have a button "refresh information" for the device.

PS: you have done great work with cacti and the plugins :D

The green circle, in the device page, next to each Associated Data Queries is a 'refresh'

Hello

Thanks!

I think (english is not my language) this proverb is the right one for my situation.
