If you are using the default 'localhost' graphs, then the script assumes linux /proc structure - in fact, it's called Linux Memory

FreeBSD has an emulation for linux /proc though, so you can make an emulated linux proc:

Code: Select all

mkdir -p /compat/linux/proc

then add the following line to your fstab

Code: Select all

linproc         /compat/linux/proc      linprocfs       rw 0 0

and then either reboot, or

Code: Select all

mount /compat/linux/proc

You should now be able to cat /compat/linux/proc/meminfo and see something useful-looking.

Finally, you need to change the script that uses the /proc. This is <cacti-root>/scripts/linux_memory.pl

Change the path in the top line from /proc/meminfo to /compat/linux/proc/meminfo
