Cacti template for GTM

Like I said, I'm not a cacti expert, you'll need to post this question to the cacti forums.

I guess I didn't say that to you though. But I will now... I'm not a cacti expert!

 

 

Sorry I'm no help, I'm just a hack trying to make a living :-)

haha, ok then... Tell me what CDEFs you are using for the graphs? Thanks

For GTM, I don't use any CDEFs. I'm not sure how to solve the problem, except to increase your DNS hit count... For testing, you could use this script (courtesy of F5) to generate queries:

 

 

 

!/bin/bash

 

 

Initialize Variables

 

 

COUNT=0

 

LOGEVERY=10

 

LOGCOUNT=0

 

 

Gather Test Data

 

echo -n 'Enter DNS Server IP addres: '

 

read DNSIP

 

echo -n 'Enter FQDN for resolution: '

 

read FQDN

 

 

echo -n 'Enter number of resolution attempts: '

 

read LIMIT

 

 

echo -n 'Specify output file: '

 

read OUTFILE

 

 

Check for $OUTPUT file exists, if the file exists and IS NOT empty

 

clear the file with cat /dev/null to empty it out.

 

 

if [ -s $OUTFILE ]

 

then

 

echo 'Output file $OUTFILE exists and is NOT empty... Resetting file.'

 

sleep 1

 

cat /dev/null > $OUTFILE

 

fi

 

 

Dig Loop

 

while [ $COUNT -lt $LIMIT ]

 

do

 

dig +short @"$DNSIP" $FQDN A >> $OUTFILE

 

if [ $LOGCOUNT == $LOGEVERY ]

 

then

 

echo "DNS Requests sent: $COUNT"

 

LOGCOUNT=0

 

fi

 

 

COUNT=$(($COUNT+1))

 

LOGCOUNT=$((LOGCOUNT+1))

 

 

done

 

 

exit

 

Deb posted a spreadsheet a while back with all the oid goodies, I'll see if I can track that down today

Doh! The cacti appliance only has version 0.8.6j...

Any chance you could export the XML for an older version of cacti? Or does it rely on something in the later 0.8.7 version?

 

 

TIA

I created the template on version 0.8.7a, you'll need to be at that version unless anyone knows a way I can export generically?

BINGO... Found it at: http://devcentral.f5.com/Default.aspx?tabid=63&articleType=ArticleView&articleId=84

I created the template in 0.8.7a
