Problem with PIX graphs, all others work fine

First off info:

Linux mackey 2.6.15-1.2054_FC5smp #1 SMP Tue Mar 14 16:05:46 EST 2006 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux

Cacti Variables

So i have a few graphs going, I'm new to cacti but it was recommended to me so I decided to give it a go. I've got only 2 hosts so far, a cisco 4506 and a cisco pix515(along with the default localhost graphs). The 4506 graphs show up perfectly however the pix515 only shows "nan" and blank graphs. As far as I can tell this has to do with rrdtool's info it's getting from the device(I'm also new to rrdtool).

Here's an RRDtool debug from concurrent connections graph:

Code: Select all

  	 RRDTool Command:

/usr/bin/rrdtool graph - \
--imgformat=PNG \
--start=-86400 \
--end=-300 \
--title="PIX515 -  Current Connections" \
--base=1000 \
--height=120 \
--width=500 \
--alt-autoscale-max \
--lower-limit=0 \
--vertical-label="Conn" \

GPRINT:a:MAX:"Max Conns%8.2lf%s\n"  \
GPRINT:a:LAST:"Current Conns%8.2lf%s" 

RRDTool Says:

OK

Here's output from rrdtool info pix515_pixconn_33.rrd

Post by **gandalf** » Sat Apr 01, 2006 5:43 am

Some hints for debugging:
1. Hosts must respond to SNMP
As you are querying both hosts for SNMP OIDs, please check that SNMP configuration for both devices is ok. Select each om them from the Devices list and verify, that SNMP system information is given on the upper left corner of the page (no "SNMP not in use" or "snmp error").
If this is successful, you are able to query that target device from within cacti (e.g. not firewall blocking requests, correct setup of snmp agent on target device, correct setup of cacti running snmp queries).
Please verify, that the Disable Host checkbox is not selected.
2, Host must be up
Please verify from the Devices overview list, that the status is up. Explanation: to suppress querying unresponsive devices, cacti prepends all target queries by some Downed Host Detection. This may involve

SNMP test
ping test where ping may be performed using ICMP, TCP or UDP

ICMP will commonly require root permissions (personally, I do not recommend this). You may change this at Settings -> Downed Host Detection. Latest cacti requires only one of this test to be successful
3. Polling must be enabled
Find this at Settings -> Poller -> Enabled. This must be checked
4. crontab must be configured to run cacti's poller.php
*/5 * * * * cactiuser php /var/www/html/cacti/poller.php > /dev/null 2>&1
You may need to provide the /full/path/to/php
5. Increase verbosity
Settings -> Logging Level set to DEBUG allows for maximum verbosity. Please clear you ./log/cacti.log, then set DEBUG level and wait for ONE polling cycle to complete. Save this log file to some other name and reset Logging Level. Then, please examine the saved log for failing queries. Find the failing host/OID one line above the error. Try to snmpwalk this OID from command line to verify, that the target host responds to this very OID

If in doubt, please post
Reinhard

i have the exact same problem, it happened 1 week ago early on a sunday morning, it just stoped graphing.

very wierd...

Have an issue - I create PIX machines with no problem - they start to send data back. I then go back and perform the standard "SNMP Interface query", I then setup my interface specific graphs -- then ALL my information stops. Yet I perform the SNMPGET from the machine and I get results. But this odd sequence of events only happens with PIX's as before.

This last PIX was actually SENDING information for a while - then appears to stop - no changes were made though. Seems specific to the 515's - the heavier PIX's Log every time... Given that the oid's are sending back good stuff - where should I look?

Reinhard,

I have followed your steps. Odd thing #2 was that once I put cacti into debug - the PIX that was working (I was not quering interface statistics) stopped.

I have verified that the host reports that it is UP, it returns information in the SNMP section. Be doggoned why it's acting this way. Oh yes, SNMPGET for the variables works from command-line.

The only item that came up in the (extensive) debug was duplicate items. (ERROR: Problem with MySQL: 'Duplicate entry '416-traffic_in-2006-05-17 08:40:02' for key 1')

...After debug - yes - the PIX that is only being queried about # connections, Memory, and CPU; came back.

Duplicate entries MAY occur when running two pollers in parallel. This often happens when using rpm based install, which put the poller statement into /etc/cron.d/cacti. If you decide to follow the installation instructions (always a good idea), you perhaps put the same statement into /etc/crontab or into crontab of user root/cactiuser. In this case, please delete one

Reinhard,

Dead on concerning the duplicate entries. Now I wait...

Same issue occurs. You create the Pix usually a 515, it spews data fine for memory, CPU and # of connections - and if you stop right there, your fine. but add the interfaces and everything stops. I've even had 515 stuff log for a while - then quit! No reason !

Sorry, no PIX here. This seems to be a device dependant issue, eh?

Well - after a rebuild of Cacti - I thought all was well - I was getting all of the Cicso related stuff - then all of them stopped - no changes - just stopped. I then presumed to perform a direct snmpget from command-line : I get

SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.9.9.147.1.2.2.2.1.5.40.6 = Gauge32: 53

So I know...;
1) The host is up
2) Clean (relatively) install via Yum + all patches (we don't need no stinkin patches)...
3) The host responds to snmp queries directly.
4) No errors show in the poller.

I also know the odd thing is the "intermittant nature" has disappeared - now it simply will not get any information. Has anyone been able to get Cisco to behave with Cacti? I may try to "Nuke" and rebuild the Pix template...

Please get the uotime of the device via snmpget -c ... -v 1 <target> system and see, if this changes. Some time ago, there were rumours about a bug. And cacti refers to the uptime ...

Understand that I may be doing something silly but...

'snmpget -c community -v version IP_ADDRESS system'

gives me
"Reason: (noSuchName) There is no such variable name in this MIB.
Failed object: SNMPv2-MIB::system"

Further, I have researched this board and I found something odd. SNMP interface retrieval works - the moment I use it - everything stops. Remove it from the PIX - and Boom, PIX related info restarts coming back. Have you heard of the "Single quote fix"? I think this might be what I'm running into...

TIA!

No. You even tried using SNMP version 1? It's important, as cacti re-indexes based on uptime, derived from "system" information
