Description to eventlog thold (SOLVED)

[Tomic]

hi all my event log is saying "Cacti[4120]CMDPHP: Host[25] ERROR: HOST EVENT: Host is DOWN Message: Host did not respond to SNMP" when a host goes Down is there any way to make it log the Description of the devices, im sadly not the biggest PHP.

I found a solution on the forum:

modify following ini functions.php
if ($issue_log_message) {
if ($hosts[$host_id]["status"] == HOST_DOWN) {
cacti_log("Host[$host_id :: $ip] ERROR: HOST EVENT: Host is DOWN Message: " . $hosts[$host_id]["status_last_error"], $print_data_to_stdout);
} else {
cacti_log("Host[$host_id] NOTICE: HOST EVENT: Host Returned from DOWN State: ", $print_data_to_stdout);
}
}


to




$sql = "SELECT hostname,description from host where id=$host_id";
$result = mysql_query($sql);
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result, MYSQL_ASSOC);
$name = $row['description'];
$ip = $row['hostname'];

/* if there is supposed to be an event generated, do it */
if ($issue_log_message) {
if ($hosts[$host_id]["status"] == HOST_DOWN) {
cacti_log("Host[$name :: $ip] ERROR: HOST EVENT: Host is DOWN Message: " . $hosts[$host_id]["status_last_error"], $print_data_to_stdout);
} else {
cacti_log("Host[$host_id] NOTICE: HOST EVENT: Host Returned from DOWN State: ", $print_data_to_stdout);
}
}
