Alarm Clock error with cactid 0.8.6f or 0.8.6g - Solaris 8

Post by unixrobot »

Alarm Clock error sporadically happen approximately every once in 3 times and it exits without finishing the polling. This results in the graphs appear with gaps. cactid also hangs and does not close MySQL database connection, as a result MySQL runs out of connections and starts rejecting new connections. Had to implement mechanism to clean cactid processes and write a script that keeps track of how cactid exits, but would like a more long term solution if anyone has any.

Running on SPARC, Sun Solaris 8

Any help would be appreciated, thank you!

CACTID 0.8.6f Copyright 2002-2005 by The Cacti Group

Usage: cactid [start_host_id end_host_id]

If you do not specify [start_host_id end_host_id], Cactid will poll all hosts.

Cactid relies on the cactid.conf file that can exist in multiple locations.
The first location checked is the current directory. Optionally, it can be
placed in the '/etc' directory.

For those wondering, I'm still here, but lost in the shadows. Yearning for less bugs. Who want's a Cacti 1.3/2.0? Streams anyone?

You will have to grap the files one at a time though.
