Emailing Cacti Graphs or html to management

[runlikeanantelope]

Has anyone setup an automatic report that is emailed to management? Maybe a html email of a total traffic graph?

The old "report plugin" does so. See http://cactiuser.org.
For a tabular report, see "reportit plugin"

Hi Henry,

At first check the functionality of the settings plugins. It's recommended to use settings 0.5.1 or higher. Go to Console->Cacti Settings and click on Mail/DNS. In the right upper corner you will see a link called "Send a Test Email" which is important to check settings after(!!!) saving.
Please note that only scheduled reports can be sent. Well, go to the CLI and call up runtime.php which is placed under /plugins/reportit:

Code: Select all

e.g.   C:\>php c:\Inetpub\wwwroot\cacti\plugins\reportit\runtime.php

If report is configured to be run every day use "-d" as parameter.

Code: Select all

e.g.   C:\>php c:\Inetpub\wwwroot\cacti\plugins\reportit\runtime.php -d -v

After the calculation process you will get and status message like this one:
10/27/2008 06:18:14 AM - PLUGIN: Poller[0] REPORTIT STATS: Frequency:daily Time:0.6 Reports:3 Emails:2
