Slow polling on winserver 2008 64bit

Post by dekard20 »

Hi, I have two servers running cacti, the first one is a winserver 2003 , 32 bit which take 100 secs polling to complete. The second one is a winserver 2008 , 64bit with the same configurations but the polling time is around 200 secs...

Is there any changes I could do on my second server to get the same polling time as my first ?

Thank you!

read through http://forums.cacti.net/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=11747

Are you using any third party scripts/templates? Pure snmp polling should only take a few seconds per host.

Oh, entirely different issue. You might want to look into using the Boost plugin.

With cacti 0.8.7g, you should be using PIA 2.9.
