Manage Plugin 0.6.2 for monitoring networks, servers...

[torstentfk]

Sweet that did it, now I still have some of the flashing and different colors though.... Any fixes for that?

pherhaps a check of the default-values of thold could help: do not use defaults in your singe thold instead enter the defaults into the each thold.
phpmyadmin is here your friend for mass changes.

Once Cacti 0.8.6i is released, all the plugin developers will have the capability to build in sorting.

In next version of Plugin Manage (0.4.3), i have separate TCP port testing from the dashboard.

Before, it was harcoded, the others queries (services and process) use a template.

The TCP Port Template can be found here.

Starting with 0.4.3, you must convert all your tested ports to real Data Sources.

Data Sources and Graphs can be automatically create with next version.

ADDONS
- use AJAX (no more full page reload), thanks Matt Emerick-Law, author of Cycle Plugin
- now, use TCP Port Template, no more hardcoded code
- you can choose between SNMP and WMI Vbs or WMI Perl (added "Manage performance" view in tab manage)

[TheWitness]

Where can I get the new copy, or is it still in the works. I'd like to talk specifically of Ajax and where Xajax is going to/should live if you haven't released it yet.

Would there be any chance of a hieracal/tree view with containers..

so for instance I could have two sites as the top view and when a child of one of the sites fail it would show up at the top level, then be able to drill down to the device at fault, ie.. Site container> Switch Container> Actual Switches.

***********SiteA**************************SiteB
***********!***!**************************!***!
*****Switches****Servers*************Switches***Servers
*****!******!****!*****!*************!******!***!******!
Switch1*switch2*Server1*Server2**Switch1*switch2*Server1*Server2

Hope this makes sense


cheers

I have the following errors in a Cacti/Windows environment:

Full View:
- Warning: mysql_fetch_array(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in C:\apache2\htdocs\cacti\plugins\manage\manage.php on line 753

List View:
- Warning: mysql_fetch_array(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in C:\apache2\htdocs\cacti\plugins\manage\manage.php on line 290
- Warning: mysql_fetch_array(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in C:\apache2\htdocs\cacti\plugins\manage\manage.php on line 753

Anyone have any idea how to resolve this issue?!?!

Thanks in advance!
(And sorry for my poor English...)

I have the same error.

Running Cacti Version 0.8.6h on FreeBSD and mysql ver 5.

I installed the manage plugin and configured the 2 device you can see in the picture. I checked the mysql db and it seems fine, the items loaded from the setup.php are in the db.

Edit:
Hmm looked in the cacti log

Hi,

some points on the handling version 0.42:

ERROR on the device page at the Service selection
"Warning: mysql_fetch_array(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /var/www/html/cacti/plugins/manage/list.php on line 967"
Line 967:
966: // $fg=0;
967: while ($row3 = mysql_fetch_array($result3, MYSQL_ASSOC)) {
968: ?>


Scenario:
1. New device
-> device ist not in the manage devide list, no manage icon

2. creating one graph
-> device is on the device mange list
with no uptime showing
no polling of device
3. changing the setting "Force ping or SNMP" from the setting "Default" to check-uptime
->immediately the device appears on the mange tab.

4. deleting the graph made in step 3.
-> device stays managed on the managed screen

Seems that the default settings are not used.

Feature request:
- Sorting of columns on click of headings
- manage-page: which sort algorithm is used?
- search possibility for hostnames in the device-list-view
- Configurable retry counter (in polling intervals) if a device is not reachable.

Maybe you don't have Thold installed.

[gilles]

Whats the best way to resetup manage, and to get the tables to re-create ?

with phpmyadmin :
- delete all tables with name 'manage_*'
- in table settings, delete all values with name 'manage_*'

or else you can try to run uninstall.sql too

Feature request:

hooks to be checked by update plugin

[TheWitness]

egarnel,

Are you saying that this plugin needs to check the latest plugin architecture and use more of the newer hook's available in it to minimize impact to the installer?

Thanks,

Larry

[egarnel]

hmm.... yes. but also have the update plugin check it for updates as well, unless of course manage becomes part of the core program.


PS. I am eagerly awaiting the 4.3 release. Once the release is stable and I have it configured, I am turning off Big Brother and using Cacti as the sole monitoring utility.

[TheWitness]

I received a preview. Gosh, I am so confused. There is so much I want to work on. I have to pick one.
