cacti-user Mailing List for Cacti

Take a look at "pmacct", which seems to be really powerful and is still an
very active project.

Thank you McCarty.

I'm fining really an tool free that accomplishes netflow protocol. I
will do some test with nfsen.

if somebody has more any tip about netflow protocol free tools please
share with us.


thank.

The way we did it was to capture netflow data with flow-scan/flow-capture,
then use the netflow collector to output an rdd file, then we created
mirrored graphs inside cacti to visualize input/output.

Honesly, you may be better off with something like NFsen (
http://nfsen.sourceforge.net/#mozTocId301830). NFsen can help automatically
break out the protocols, etc

Hello everyone, sometimes people comes question me if I know some tool
wich shows the ip address and/or protocol of larger bandwidth
consumption in one device.

for exemplo, I wish know what is the protocol ( level  7 ; http, smtp,
pop etc)  of larger bandwidth consumption on my MPLS router. ip
address too.

with cacti it's possible ??

Thank!

Is it possible it's report it in bits rather than bytes?

Cacti will use SNMP.
So if you have an "snmpwalk" example output, that shows both interfaces, then
this is doable. Else: nogo

Dear Support,

I have configured 2 IP's on single interface of Cisco router. I want to plot the graph by IP wise so Please tell me the simple procedure how to create the graph with IP base.

Regards,

Rajesh Dongre 		 	   		  

Dear All,

This is my first post; so I hope you all bear with me for my little 
experience with Cacti.

I have set up Cacti with the option: Console -> 
Configuration->Settings->Authentication=none, which means we can access 
Cacti page without authentication. When I browsed each graph, the URL 
would look something like:

http://localhost/cacti/graph.php?action=view&local_graph_id=145&rra_id=all

Is there a way that Cacti can access the graph based on the hostname and 
the interface IP?

I'd like to create custom PHP script to access each graph by a hostname 
and IP address?

Appreciate for any ideas.

Thanks & regards,
Khem

Hi,


   an update, I've disabled MySQL replication, I've also blocked  
access to the live server's DB via tcp_wrappers just in case there was  
any possibility it was looking in the wrong DB.
The result is, I still have an intermittent problem. Ie looking at the  
poller_time:

  select * from cacti.poller_time:
+----+-----+-----------+---------------------+---------------------+
| id | pid | poller_id | start_time          | end_time            |
+----+-----+-----------+---------------------+---------------------+
|  1 |   0 |         0 | 2011-06-06 17:10:33 | 2011-06-06 17:10:33 |
|  2 |   0 |         0 | 2011-06-06 17:10:43 | 2011-06-06 17:10:43 |
+----+-----+-----------+---------------------+---------------------+

Looking at the system time:

# date
Mon Jun  6 17:16:07 BST 2011

Trying to run the poller:

# su - cacti -c "/usr/local/bin/php /usr/home/cacti/poller.php"
06/06/2011 05:16:09 PM - POLLER: Poller[0] NOTE: Poller Int: '300',  
Cron Int: '300', Time Since Last: '69', Max Runtime '298', Poller  
Runs: '1'
06/06/2011 05:16:09 PM - POLLER: Poller[0] NOTE: Cron is configured to  
run too often!  The Poller Interval is '300' seconds, with a minimum  
Cron period of '300' seconds, but only 69 seconds have passed since  
the poller last ran.


So, really weird!! Anyone with any ideas or anything else I can test  
please let me know,

thanks Andy.

Hi,

   can anyone help me out here, the poller randomly won't run, all my  
graphs have more holes in them than data. Here is an example of the  
problem, I check the data in the poller_time table, then check the  
system time, then try and run the poller and it tells me only 61  
seconds have passed when more than 300 have passed. What's it doing??

mysql> select * from cacti.poller_time;
+----+-----+-----------+---------------------+---------------------+
| id | pid | poller_id | start_time          | end_time            |
+----+-----+-----------+---------------------+---------------------+
|  1 |   0 |         0 | 2011-06-03 17:40:34 | 2011-06-03 17:40:34 |
|  2 |   0 |         0 | 2011-06-03 17:40:39 | 2011-06-03 17:40:39 |
+----+-----+-----------+---------------------+---------------------+
2 rows in set (0.00 sec)

mysql> exit
Bye

One thing that possibly could cause a problem is that I am running  
dual cacti pollers, that is this is my secondary cacti server which is  
a replica (config wise) of my primary server. That basically means  
that the MySQL database is replicated to this server but certain  
tables, like poller_time, are excluded from the replication. However  
this configuration has previously working for months, It is now broken  
and this doesn't coincide with any configuration changes made to  
either server.

Any help much appreciated!!

thanks Andy.

Just attempt to login to Cacti, it will prompt you to upgrade the database.

Hello Group,
I read http://www.cacti.net/downloads/docs/html/upgrade.html -

my situation is that I need to migrate from 0.8.7b to 0.8.7g.
First one runs on Ubuntu Hardy (8.04) and the second on Natty (11.04).

And, both are separate machines (obviously).

(I understand I have to import the cacti table onto new environment
as well as copy over the cacti/rra/* )

Is there something else to be done after the upgrade procedure is
followed ?

The Natty installation is already running with some test data sources,
but I don't really care about the data it has now, i want full 
substitution - the old banger will be taken down eventually.

Will accept all kinds of pointers, even google keywords ;)

Thanks&Regards,
Lukasz
