Problems with HEX Values from SAN Switch

[darckos]

I had the same problem on 0.8.8a with qlogic switch and I took a look to the is_hexadecimal function in lib/functions.php

for this function

Code: Select all

00 00 00 00 02 76 CE 64

is not an hex string

Code: Select all

00:00:00:00:02:76:CE:64

is an hex string

To quickly fix my problem here is what I did:

Code: Select all

function is_hexadecimal($hexstr) {
    $hexstr = trim($hexstr);
    $hexstr = str_replace(' ', ':', $hexstr);
    $hexstr = str_replace('-', ':', $hexstr);
    $i      = 0;
    $length = strlen($hexstr);

Thanks for the assistance... I made this change but still getting the same result...
I am puzzled how the same device being polled by two different cacti servers... can produce such different results..

I am assuming that the device being polled is actually returning hex but for some reason the 0.8.7.i version (top) is not converting it correctly while the 0.8.7.g (bottom) does convert it correctly....

Set your Log Level to HIGH and you should see that spine see HEX values but decimal are passed to the poller/

Code: Select all

Thanks... so if the top log entry below an indication that the conversion to decimal IS working? Appears to be the case, but I am also seeing 2 "U" values as well... maybe i have something else going on....
