Data Source not listed?

Post by talkingtoes »

Hello all, (first post here)

I am using a Dell Temperature Template data source. This is designed for older Dell servers with several internal temp sensors. I have a Dell PE2950 that has only one sensor, CPU1. (Dell's OpenManage confirms this). This is correctly shown on the graph that's created (and attached).

The Data Source drop box only shows the first option (Ambient). I need the 2nd (CPU1) source, which is not listed, although others would be handy to compare also.

What can I do? What do you need?
Cacti Version - 0.8.7d
Plugin Architecture - 2.4
Poller Type - CMD.php
Server Info - Linux 2.6.24-23-generic
Web Server - Apache/2.2.8 (Ubuntu) PHP/5.2.4-2ubuntu5.6 with Suhosin-Patch

PS, This server is in an utility room w/o AC, on an external cement wall. I need to know when it gets warm in that remote office room.

I would have to see something online to help you with this. It may be that the graph is made up with some odd combination of data sources. Not sure.

Thanks for the replay , here is some screen shots of my graph

but you know I can do it the other way around instead of selecting "create a new threshold" I select "Create a Threshold Template" and choose the right template and data source I need . so it's fine
