RE : [cacti-user] Howto change SNMP community string

It is available in 'Polling hosts' settings under Cacti 0.8+.
It was a per-data-source setting before.

HTH,

	Sorry if this has been addressed in previous posts.  I did a quick search but couldn't find anything on it.  

	 

	I would like to know how to change the SNMP community string for a host.  I don't see a way to do it from the web
interface (I went to Console > SNMP Interfaces and I see the current community string listed, but no way to
edit it.).  Is there a file I can edit to update one of my hosts with a new string?
	
	Thanks for your help!

.rrd not generated - prob with $path_cacti ?

Hi  <at>  all,

I'm new to the list and need some help with generating my first rrd's.
Cacti is installed on Debian/Gnu Linux Sid. After struggling some time
with a buggy postinst-script of the distribution, I can start it now on
http://localhost/cacti.

But something seems to be wrong with the cacti-webroot directory.
For example the cronjob only finds related files when I previously cd to
the cacti-dir like this:

*/5 * * * * www-data cd /usr/share/cacti && php4 cmd.php

It does not with the Debian default entry:

*/5 * * * * www-data php4 /usr/share/cacti/cmd.php

...resulting in root-mails beginning with warnings like:

Warning: rrdtool_function_create(include/functions.php): failed to open
stream: No such file or directory in
/usr/share/cacti/include/rrd_functions.php on line 87
...

I suppose there is a relation to my main problem - initial rrd-files
can't be generated from the window "rrdtool Data Source
Configuration". On top is a red warning "CANNOT FIND DATA SOURCE:
/usr/share/cacti/rra/ping_uunet_phi.rrd" for example. When I toggle
"Update .rrd File" an klick "save" the former rrd is not generated.

Re: Data-Source "ucd/net snmp - monitored partitions"

I overlooked something fairly obvious from your first message. Your
snmpwalk output appears to come from disks monitored using the host MIB,
not ucd/net SNMP's MIB. To see these partitions in Cacti, you need to
add the "SNMP - Get Mounted Partitions" data query to your host.

The .deb for Cacti is completely 3rd party. I suppose the maintainer for
that needs to be contacted to update the dependences.

No, this does not lead to display partitions mounted (even after clicking 
on the green ring). No display.

Here is what I can question using snmpwalk:
xch4008 <at> xcnlm01s:~> snmpwalk -c public xcnlm00s 
host.hrDevice.hrFSTable.hrFSEntry.hrFSMountPoint
host.hrDevice.hrFSTable.hrFSEntry.hrFSMountPoint.1 = "/"
host.hrDevice.hrFSTable.hrFSEntry.hrFSMountPoint.2 = "/boot"
host.hrDevice.hrFSTable.hrFSEntry.hrFSMountPoint.3 = "/srv/www"
host.hrDevice.hrFSTable.hrFSEntry.hrFSMountPoint.4 = 
"/opt/rmserver/Content"
host.hrDevice.hrFSTable.hrFSEntry.hrFSMountPoint.5 =

I think I've got the fix. Open up 'scripts/query_host_partitions.php' in
a text editor and scroll to line 23. Now change:

print $return_arr[$i]["value"] . "\n";

to:

print $return_arr[$i] . "\n";
