Bulk change for "downed device detection"

[bullet]

Hi

Is there a way by which I could run a CLI script to change the "downed device detection" from "Ping and SNMP Uptime" to just "SNMP Uptime" alone ? I want this so that my cacti would start polling my devices again.

I am not sure if this is related http://bugs.cacti.net/view.php?id=2335

Hi,

You can use some SQL ..

[cacti]> update host SET availability_method = '2' where availability_method ='1';

First inventory with:
[cacti]> select id,hostname,availability_method from host ;

Give it a try with the localhost and check the GUI
[cacti]> update host SET availability_method = '2' where availability_method ='1' and id = '1';
Test some more, verify and do the bulk.
