Spine SNMP v3 SNMP Context

Post by z3t4 »

Hi,
I'm using cacti/spine 0.8.8h on debian jessie.

I have problems retrieving data using spine on a radius server that is configured with an snmpv3 context, on the device page we than see that it's properly configured, as it displays the snmp info on the top left corner, but spine is unable to get the snmp data:

Code: Select all

root@cacti02[PROD]:~/cacti-0.8.8h# spine -V 7 -R -H 2067

I think this happens because there is no "SNMP Context" on the data template's custom data, so I can't mark It as "Use Per-Data Source Value (Ignore this Value)".

I searched for this issue and found this http://bugs.cacti.net/print_bug_page.php?bug_id=1372, it suggests:
Ouch, who screwed up there? Well, this is going to half to be a managed change as we consider this data input method to be a system one. You could unhide it and make the changes yourself, but then when you publish templates you could wreak havoc.
But I couldn't find how to unhide nor modify Get SNMP data input method.

Thanks and kind regards.

Checking the db schema there is snm_context for host & poller_item, but it is not defined on data_input_fields:
