The query for running hosts, etc. doesn't seem to be working.. Something changed in new build of 5.5?

Did you see, message from user ksdjfh (31 May 2013, 21:06). He had the same problem. I don't know why, I haven't any experiences with this problem.

Hello,

I am trying to get this template to work.. I finding an error with two xML queries. I'm trying to understand how to debug these queries and I'm not very familar with xml scripting. Is there a way to execute these from the command line to get better debug info?
snmp on the ESXi and the OIDs are correct.. I can get values from snmpwalk.

Code: Select all

Running data query [29].
+ Found type = '3' [SNMP Query].
+ Found data query XML file at '/usr/share/cacti/resource/snmp_queries/esxi_cpu.xml'

Hello,

I have a generic Q

I like the template, gr8 job

I am new to this tool..

mine is 32 CPU Host, i would like to get rid of the H/w piece of the graphs ( is it possible) , also want to re-arrange the graphs location on home page

Also this one works for a single host, i wanted to add a cluster at a time, is that possible ?

Also i wanted to change the host name , i did not got any option

Please guide.

Console -> graph management -> select host -> click to graph title -> change title


Single host/cluster - this is single host template. I don't know how vmware cluster works (one IP, more IP, common snmp, ...), because I haven't access to any vm cluster.

Dear all,

I'm using CactiEZ 0.7 (CentOS 6.7, cacti0.8.8b) to monitor ESXi 6.0. But looks like it doesn't work :(
Attached file is the result on the cacti

I cannot create graphs for below items:
- ucd/net - Get Monitored Partitions
- VMware ESX - Get VM CPU usage
- VMware ESX - Get VM disk statistics
- VMware ESX - Get VM memory usage
- VMware ESX - Get VM NIC statistics

Could you please help me on the issue?

Thank you,
DQM

I think, that ESXi doesn't support UCD MIB. Supported mibs are here:

VMware ESX isn't my template, I cannot help you
