95th percentile possible issues

[chris.rolves]

in my screen shot I have one of my graphs set to do 95th Percentile, but the line for it does not move and the info on the bottom stays at 0 mbit in+out. Do I need to change any info somewhere in cacti for this to work, or is it working?

I also have this issue with two of my graphs. Coincidentally, these were graphs created initially without the 95% percential option, and then switched over mid-way through. Did you do this as well? For my graphs that I started as "95% percentile", those work fine. I don't want to flush all the data I have right now for these graphs so any sort of hotfix solution someone can offer would be appreciated.

actually, i have no clue if these were initially something else then changed to 95th, because im not the only one who has entered info into the cacti box. I may recreate these devices in cacti as 95th

Sometimes changing the template type does this. Change it to regular traffic and back and see if it resolves the issue.

Otherwise remove and recreate the graph. Might have to copy the original data source rrd, so make note of the old data sources rrd file, so that you can copy it over the new data source rrd file. That way you will not loose any historical data.

Thanks for the tip- I deleted the graphs but kept their data intact (I didn't bother with backing it up on the filesystem, I just used the options in Cacti). Then I recreated the graphs as 95%, and the red line shows up properly. Excellent. Thanks again for making this tool, it's great.
