Hi,

12k datasources

3 Pool cycle's ( from mysql restart for making heap_size from 512 to 768M ) with no error and then this....

Code: Select all

05/05/2010 11:10:07 AM - BOOST SERVER: Poller[0] WARNING: Broken connection detected '127.0.0.1'
05/05/2010 11:10:07 AM - BOOST: Poller[0] WARNING: RRD Update Warning 'FAILED' for Local Data ID '38908'
05/05/2010 11:10:07 AM - BOOST: Poller[0] ERROR: Timeout detected. Boost server is down. Contact support immediately!!

Could be a timeout. Why do you use the server? Increase the timeout.

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?

I seen that problem before when I upgraded my cacti installation and installed boost at the same time. It was a number of things, but it came down to the an issue with the data sources not being populated properly.

Perhaps some additional context would be helpful - were there any other upgrades besides installation of Boost.
