what's the status of <rewrite_index> ?

[yodakoda]

Hello,

Is <rewrite_index>supported in 8.8b release ? I'm trying to use it but with no luck. Here is my query definition

Code: Select all

<juniSystemTempTable>
        <name>Get Juniper E-series' temperature stats</name>
        <description>Queries a ERX/E320 for temperature statistics</description>
        <oid_index>.1.3.6.1.4.1.4874.2.2.2.1.9.4.1.4</oid_index>

        <index_order>juniSystemTempName:juniSystemTempPI</index_order>
        <index_order_type>numeric</index_order_type>
        <index_title_format>|juniSystemTempPI|</index_title_format>

                </juniSystemTempName>
                <juniSystemTempValue>
                        <name>Temp sensor value</name>
                        <method>walk</method>
                        <source>value</source>
                        <direction>output</direction>
                        <oid>.1.3.6.1.4.1.4874.2.2.2.1.9.4.1.3</oid>
                </juniSystemTempValue>
        </fields>
</juniSystemTempTable>

and verbose query result (I removed some

[ snip ]

Of course it's not what I would like to get. I would like juniSystemTempName to be indexed with juniSystemTempPI like this

Code: Select all

+ Executing SNMP get for data @ '.1.3.6.1.2.1.47.1.1.1.1.7.118' [value='something else']
+ Executing SNMP get for data @ '.1.3.6.1.2.1.47.1.1.1.1.7.119' [value='something else']
+ Executing SNMP get for data @ '.1.3.6.1.2.1.47.1.1.1.1.7.120' [value='something else']

It seems that <rewrite_index> is ignored for some reason.

While searching the forum I found this thread http://forums.cacti.net/viewtopic.php?f ... rite_index with the following info "Sorry, the rewrite stuff was not yet implemented (yes, I know, the docs say it will work)." I wonder if it's still true or <rewrite_index> is already supported in 8.8b but I do something wrong.

I really appreciate any ideas.
