Problems with created data query

[ispavailability]

Hi all,

I've created a data query to get the Disk Inodes from a server trough snmp.
I've created the Data query XML file, the data template and graph template.
When adding the data query to the host i get all the nice data out of it:

Code: Select all

So that all looks good.

When going to "Create graphs for this host" I can create all the graphs and they will get the correct naming.
But... the graphs are not being shown ( even after a while waiting )
So been checking it out further, and it seems that the RRD files aren't being created.
After doing some debugging with Spine even on verbose level 10 it seems that the Data sources are not being processed at all.

Already been looking trough http://docs.cacti.net/manual:087:4_help ... #debugging but still no luck in finding out what's going on
I hope someone can help me.

It seems to me (at least when the output posted is complete), that there are no <direction>output</direction> elements in the data query XML. Please post that file for debugging
R.

Out of my head im pretty sure i got the output part in it also.
But i'll post the xml file when im in the office in a couple hours.

Thanks in advance

This is the xml file:

Some extra info ( see attachments )

[gandalf]

It works for me. I'm using your snmp_query XML file.
Find templates and stuff attached
R.

Okay, that's strange
I will test it out firday when at work again.
btw, can i convert the file to the 0.8.7h version? ( need to upgrade to the i version but that will be done in the new year )

Thanks in advance for trying it out

[gandalf]

No, you can't convert the XML
R.

[ispavailability]

I mean the exported xml file you did. because if i remember correctly the HASH value is different between the H and I version?

[noname]

Replaced hash code for 087g:

cacti087g_data_query_disk_inodes.xml

hash_xx0023 to hash_xx0021

Import Results:


But I've never tested that.

Thanks.
I'll give it a try on friday when im back in the office.

[ispavailability]

It works as expected. thank you very much

Would it be usefull to put this all under the http://docs.cacti.net/scripts or http://docs.cacti.net/templates part so i can share it with other people?

cheers.

The latter link is the recommended. And yes, we do appreciate those contributions
