About device availability

Post by rider »


Hi all:
I have a question about device availability.
Is there any one know that how does cacti calculate the device availability?
Because i got a win2k server pc,but it's bed in performance.
Why cacti calculate its availability as 100%?
Is it right?
Thanks

I might be wrong...

but I'm pretty sure Cacti pings every host during the polling cycle to determine if it is "up". Cacti uses this ping to determine uptime / availiabiltiy. The percentage is just the percentage of polling cycles that the host has reponded to pings. In your case, all of them.
