UNIX Template Set for Cacti: HP-UX, Solaris, Linux

[fmangeant]

Many thanks for the HP-UX templates, I'm using them on ia64 where Net-SNMP doesn't want to build.

[rafiso]

that's great templates !

Anyway could you just correct the bug with the units ?
I also got 2M instead of 2G That's too bad !

Is there an easy way to fix this ? Thanks you again for your help !

Do you guys use the network interfaces graphs? do they work for you?
Mine never show any data at all!

These are great templates... I must agree though can we get someone with the know-how to post a new template for SWAP which has the unit's fixed... my server with 1.5 GB of SWAP is showing up as 1.5MB....

If not a new template can someone post a walkthrough on how to make these changes directly in cacti.

Hi,

What is mean of m, n and u in GPRINT item in HPUX CPU usage graph?

Thanks a lot!

Many thanks for the HP-UX templates, I'm using them on ia64 where Net-SNMP doesn't want to build.

I've not tried the templates on HPUX Ia64, but on HP-UX Parisc at least there is no need to use NetSNMP. The template for hpux hosts was designed to be used with the standard hpux SNMPd.

Please post here if it work ok for IA64.

This is not true for Solaris, where you need to be running NetSNMP for the template to be fully working, as the standard solaris snmpd won't report enough information (that is too bad I think!)

hello,

I am using Solaris9 and trying to get all the possible information available through SNMP beigh graphed by cacti. I've downloaded the templates you've made. My snmpd configuration is as simple as possible. Im just defining get and set communities, so I shouldn't be restricting type of data queries by any means, right?

The problem is, that Im not getting anything except interface traffic graphed. I've tried both Linux host and Solaris host, but all the same. CPU is nan and everything else 0.00. Any suggestions?

You need to install NetSNMPd. You can also use NetSNMP with Solaris SNMP agent.

After investigating a lot of errrors like this:

Code: Select all

ERROR: Problems parsing Multi SNMP OID! (oid: .1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11.54.0 )

I figured out what is wrong: There is a trailing whitespace behind the OID .1.3.6.1.4.1.2021.11.54.0 in Data Source template ucd_ssCpuRawWait.

I removed the whitespace and the problem went away

Just trying these templates out myself, I'm really interested in being able to use cacti with our HPUX production boxes, unfortunately it seems like the main queries (processes, uptime, memory, etc) are all returning 0, but the graphs are being created.

The LAN stats and disk statistic stats aren't even being created, they just stay red-x'd.

The verbose query looks right, its finding all of my file systems:

There aren't any errors in the logs, but there are an awful lot of these entries for both the Linux and HPUX box I'm trying to use this template with:

Code: Select all

Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Hi,

Did you follow the instructions in the INSTALL text file?

[rprague]

Yes, I followed the INSTALL file, both hpux_lan and hpux_fs xml files are in snmp_queries, and the system does see all of the file systems in the verbose query, but for some reason the graphs aren't being created for the file system, and all of the other graphs never collect data.

I just turned my logging to debug level for the next polling interval, hopefully that will give me more information.

I'm unable to get these scripts working with the latest .j release of cacti, does anyone have an updated set? I would love to get some of my HPUX stuff into cacti.

After reading the thread, I tried everything again from scratch and it worked PERFECTLY.

Thanks so much for these templates.
