Cisco Uptime - Surely it can't be this hard??

Nunnsby · Post by **Nunnsby** » Fri Jul 29, 2011 6:24 am

Hi All

I am really struggling to uptime for my Cisco Devices working. I HAVE trawled the site from top to bottom, and read literally all the articles I can find on it. I understand the roll-over issue, I understand the ticks instead of actual date output, but am still struggling. Seems no one else really is, and I can;t believe I am that stupid!

I have tried the hrsystemuptime_unix template, from cacti_graph_template_host_mib_-_hrsystemuptime_unix.xml, and this graphs, but I am plagued by the 496 Day roll-over issue, so my 1yr+ graph is only showing 124 days.

I have also messed around with the generic_uptime template from cacti_graph_template_generic_uptime.xml, but that is returning errors, and is not working.

Output from Graph Debug

Code: Select all

/usr/bin/rrdtool graph - \

--end=-300 \

GPRINT:cdefb:LAST:"Days \:%3.0lf"  \
GPRINT:cdefc:LAST:"Hours \:%2.0lf"  \
GPRINT:cdefd:LAST:"Minutes\:%2.0lf" 

RRDTool Says:

ERROR: the RRD does not contain an RRA matching the chosen CF

I have also found reference to various other OIDs for uptime, but none of them seem to work, see output of various OIDs below.

Code: Select all

$ snmpwalk -v2c -c engen99  10.1.15.250 .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.3.0
iso.3.6.1.2.1.1.3.0 = Timeticks: (1072025379) 124 days, 1:50:53.79

$ snmpwalk -v2c -c engen99  10.1.15.250 .1.3.6.1.6.3.10.2.1.3
iso.3.6.1.6.3.10.2.1.3.0 = INTEGER: 53669953

$ snmpwalk -v2c -c engen99  10.1.15.250 .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.1.1.0
iso.3.6.1.2.1.25.1.1.0 = No Such Object available on this agent at this OID

Can someone point me to a working template, or assist in how to do this?

Regards

OKAY!!! I found the problem!!

1) the Calculation was wrong
2) the OID was wrong

So, to get it working, follow these steps:

1) Template here: http://samburney.com/blog/graph-uptime- ... snmp-cacti, direct link (http://samburney.com/system/files/cacti ... uptime.xml)

2) Install the template as per usual

3) Then, go to Data Templates > ucd/net - Uptime (ticks)

4) Change OID to : .1.3.6.1.6.3.10.2.1.3.0 - Must have ZERO at END! SAVE

5) Go to Graph Management > CDEFs > Ticks to Days

6) Select Item #2

7) Change to 86400 - Only 86 400 (one word)

SAVE

Add to Cisco host, and voila!!!

Happy Days!!

You can download the official templates at docs.cacti.net.

This was the code that Sam had on his site which is no longer available:
