RELEASED: < 1 Minute to 5 Minute Polling Interval Patch
All,
I held off for quite a while and finally decided, with the approval of the broader Cacti Group, to release this patch. I hope you all enjoy it.
I will also be releasing some additional interesting patches in the months to come. Again, enjoy.
Regards,
TheWitness

This is what I came up with to poll every 30 seconds
It's not pretty, but it seems to work
Code: Select all
*/1 * * * * cactiuser /usr/bin/php /www/cacti.mahuani.net/htdocs/poller.php > /dev/null 2>&1
*/1 * * * * cactiuser /bin/sleep 30; /usr/bin/php /www/cacti.mahuani.net/htdocs/poller.php > /dev/null 2>&1

I remember JP talking about this at Linuxworld. He indicated, with the "new" cron syntax, that you could poll every second. However, I have not been able to find that syntax.

You need to use mcron instead of vixie-cron: http://www.gnu.org/software/mcron/

Graph Tree
Problem,
the first Graph i see in my Graph Tree is not the 1 Minute Average Graph. It is always the 5 Minute.
If if go in Zoom all 5 Graphs are build.
How could I change this?
Thanks

1 Minute Polling "Patch"
The topic spoke of a "patch" but all I could find were already patched files. So I have went ahead and created the patch in case anyone else wants it too.
It should apply clean against stock Cacti v0.8.6i. Interesting thing to note is that poller.php (not the lib one) is included in the above file, but the only modification was to strip the newline at the end of the file.
It be interesting to see how some of the plugins actually handle working with this... A few will out right break with a faster poller, but the others might do fine.
