Nagios Support Forum

I wound up backing up my instance and re-installing Nagios, which resolved my problem. It is not the best solution, but you can close this out because I can't spend more time on it.

I went back in and double-checked. There are no cacti files on my whole system.

I restarted httpd and nagios as well. There are no errors in the log file either.

I really need some help here. I cannot make any monitoring or alerting changes at all.

I resolved this myself. I needed a wrapper to put the metrics in nagios format. You can lock this thread.

There was not cacti.conf file to remove - it was not there to begin with.

I did restart httpd.conf more than once.

What is the name of the file to remove and where is it?

I went to /etc/httpd/conf.d/ and there is no cacti.conf file or anything similar.

I figured this out myself. I did not have a good understanding of how services relate to hosts. You can lock this one up.

UPDATE: I wrote a Perl wrapper that does what I need. We can lock this thread.

Thanks,
Eric

After looking at cacti I don't think it is what we need. It seems to want to talk SNMP to our hosts - during the install it is trying to change snmpd so it will let cacti make queries. We just need something to graph the data we already have in Nagios better. Also, It does not support SNMPv3 from wh...
