Graphs are not displaying

Post by Ady »

Hi,

I've managed to get the poller working and reteiving data from my firewall, however when I create a graph I don't get the image.

Below is the debug data for the graph:
c:/progra~1/rrdtool/rrdtool.exe graph - \
--imgformat=PNG \
--start=-86400 \
--end=-300 \
--title="Netscreen Firewall - Traffic - 85.234.130.120 (untrust)" \
--rigid \
--base=1000 \
--height=120 \
--width=500 \
--alt-autoscale-max \
--lower-limit=0 \
--vertical-label="bytes per second" \
DEF:a="D\:/Sites/paperheads.co.uk/cacti/rra/netscreen_firewall_traffic_in_9.rrd":traffic_in:AVERAGE \
DEF:b="D\:/Sites/paperheads.co.uk/cacti/rra/netscreen_firewall_traffic_in_9.rrd":traffic_out:AVERAGE \
AREA:a#00CF00:"Inbound" \
GPRINT:a:LAST:" Current\:%8.2lf %s" \
GPRINT:a:AVERAGE:"Average\:%8.2lf %s" \
GPRINT:a:MAX:"Maximum\:%8.2lf %s" \
COMMENT:"Total In: 0 bytes\n" \
LINE1:b#002A97:"Outbound" \
GPRINT:b:LAST:"Current\:%8.2lf %s" \
GPRINT:b:AVERAGE:"Average\:%8.2lf %s" \
GPRINT::MAX:"Maximum\:%8.2lf %s" \
COMMENT:"Total Out: 0 bytes"
By the looks of things no data is being sent to the rrdtool, but I cant work out why.

Does anyone have any ideas, or know where I can start looking?

Ta,
Ady

Please change Settings -> Logging Level to DEBUG for ONE polling cycle and check log/cacti.log. You should see the SNMP request (including host and OID), the result and an rrdtool update for this. Please post

1) read this post: http://forums.cacti.net/viewtopic.php?t=11747

2) are the rrd files actually updating?

3) Enable graph debugging and post the commandline output. What is the error?

Hi,

Yes I did use this topic to get as far as I have. I have applied all patches, and temporarily set the user account to administrator.

How do I know if the RRD files are actually being updated?

My first post shows the graph debug output.

Thanks,
Ady

Hi,

Looks like I was selecting the wrong type of graph. Selecting bits/per second rather than bytes/per second creates a graph.

Use

Code: Select all

rrdtool fetch <rrd file> AVERAGE
and check the last lines. They should NOT hold NaN's
