Windows 2000 / 2k3 Disk Statistics

[msv_magnusm]

Hi, I have a problem and hope to find some help here.

I copied the snmp_informant_disk.xml to the right directory and imported the templates as the instructions says. By the way, very well and detailed written instructions, just as others have said. Created the graphs through "Create Graphs for this Host" where I saw that I had data returning from the snmp queries (Success [3 Items, 3 Rows]).

Everything looks fine, except that I don't get any graphs, the images don't even get created.

My Cacti version is 0.8.6j.

I have tried to monitor two different operating systems, none of them working:
Windows Server 2003 Enterprise x64, installed the informant-snmp standard. Didn't do anything else, but snmpwalk looks fine.
Windows XP Pro, didn't work at first, so I tried diskperf -y and a reboot. Didn't work after that either. So I somehow think it's cacti/template-related, maybe snmp.

Since I am using RHEL I am "stuck" with their net-snmp, it's version 5.3.1-24.el5_2.1.
EDIT:I tried with net-snmp-5.4.1.2 anyway, since cacti could easy be reconfigured to use specific binaries. No success. :(

This is what I get in my log regarding the XP host (the other looks the same)

Code: Select all

I guess the ERROR: Problems parsing Multi SNMP OID! and the two concated OIDS are my problems. I am not that very familiar with snmp and it might be something I don't know. But can you really concat two OIDs like that and use it?

Anyone have any tip for me?

Most thankful for all help.

EDIT:
I have also tried to upgrade to spine-0.8.7a and cacti-0.8.7b, no change.
EDIT2:
Problem "solved", seems like the templates don't go well with rrdtool 1.2 or something. I removed the Free space LINE and added colors to the other Lines that didn't have. The clue was: "ERROR: Legend set but no color: Write /s".

Sorry for disturbing. I will just break down the graph and build it up again more as I want it.

[4inlove]

Hi Phobos,
I follow your steps, and it seemed successful.
but no graph come out. Please see the attached and give me some ideas.

[s16pt]

I've successfully import the xml file without error.And also copy snmp_informan.xml in relavent path.
But it doesn't appear anything in the graphic tree.

Have somebody ever solve this kind of problem ?
Need your help.

[kjohnsoncda]

Darwins Post on Page 7 and his included xml files worked for me on Cacti 8.7b

Only thing I did different was using the custom RRA settings when importing the templates.

This was all after 3 days of messing around with the original poster's XML files and not getting any results.

Mods may want to think about locking this thead or at least modifying the original posters files.

[bodazyphir]

Hi All,

I have fixed all the problems in this thread ....

Fixed up several issues with the XML output tages in the data query. Seprated the graphs out so they all contain data that is relevant to the x/y axis.

Install these as per :

- Import Graph templates and Data template via the gui
- Save the Data Query in the <cactihome>resource/snmp_queries/ directory.

Happy hunting ,

I have imported the templates as instructed and the data queries appear to be working but the graphs are not rendering, I get the following error from debug mode:

Code: Select all

ERROR: Legend set but no color: Available\:

I have checked the graph template and the colours appear correctly in the listing.

I have a cacti on Linux Fedora Core (7). Graph is not generated.

Hello,
After installing INFORMANT according to your procedure, all seems ok but no graph.

Thanks

[sardiskan]

I'm attempting to install this process and when I select the SNMP - Informant Disk Statistics and add it to the list of associated queries, I get a 0 results back. Verbose of the query shows that it can't find the file, but the file is in the proper directory with the same permissions as the other files.

Code: Select all

+ Running data query [10].
+ Found type = '3' [snmp query].
+ Could not find data query XML file at '/usr/share/cacti/site/resource/snmp_queries/snmp_informant_disk.xml'

+ Could not find data query XML file at '/usr/share/cacti/site/resource/snmp_queries/snmp_informant_disk.xml'

Here is the output of that directory listing:

[root@oscar /usr/local/share/cacti/resource/snmp_queries]# 

I did notice that the directory listed in the verbose output doesn't match the location of the file, but there is no such directory on the system as /usr/share/cacti and other of the scripts show the same location for files like this one:

Code: Select all

The above script runs fine and says the file is located in /usr/share/cacti/etc/etc/ The root folder of /usr/share/cacti just simply doesn't exist so I'm not sure what it's talking about.

I'd appreciate any assistance on this.
