rrd files do not exist

[cklayus]

After I add a router via the monitoring wizard with the snmp it detects the ports. but then doesn't really monitor the bandwidth.
it says thet rrd files are missing i checked and they are actually missing.

[questrad]

If you have used NagiosXI router wizard then you need to check if MRTG is running on your system and it generates the files for bandwidth checks

Dear cklayus

more /usr/local/nagiosxi/tmp/mrtgscan-your_router_host
copy the desired (only the required) interface and paste in

vi /etc/mrtg/mrtg.cfg

These only 5 lines are required copy and paste (below is example) should show
your_router_host_129.rrd missing

Wait for 20 minutes, graph will start to plot.

[cklayus]

I had these lines in the mrtg.cfg file what i dint had is the top lines htmldir.... etc.....
I copied them from the forum and still no graphs after almost an hour.
the start of my mrtg.cfg file looks now like this:
### Global Config Options

# for UNIX
# WorkDir: /home/http/mrtg

# or for NT
# WorkDir: c:\mrtgdata

### Global Defaults

# to get bits instead of bytes and graphs growing to the right
# Options[_]: growright, bits

What is the Nagios XI version that you are currently running? I noticed that you are missing the "Include" directive in the "mrtg.cfg", i.e.

Code: Select all

Include: conf.d/*.cfg

Does this directory exist? Run the following command and show us the output:

Code: Select all

ll -R /etc/mrtg

Do you get any errors when you run the following command in the CLI?

Code: Select all

LANG=C LC_ALL=C /usr/bin/mrtg /etc/mrtg/mrtg.cfg

[cklayus]

I am running the 2014R2.0 version

the output of the firs command is:
/etc/mrtg:
total 20
drwxrwxr-x 2 apache nagios 4096 May 12 2014 archive
drwxrwxr-x 2 apache nagios 4096 May 12 2014 conf.d
-rwxrwxr-x 1 apache nagios 7729 Dec 8 13:13 mrtg.cfg
-rwxrwxr-x 1 apache nagios 742 May 13 2014 mrtg.cfg.orig

/etc/mrtg/archive:
total 0

/etc/mrtg/conf.d:
total 0
You have new mail in /var/spool/mail/root

when i run the second i get an error:
ERROR: CFG Error in "libadd", file /etc/mrtg/mrtg.cfg line 22: /opt/rrdtool-1.4.4/lib/perl/5.10.1 is not the name of a directory

[cklayus]

the /opt directory is empty

Looks like you might be missing some dependencies there. Let's check a few packages:

Code: Select all

rpm -qa | grep -i 'net-snmp\|rrdtool\|mrtg\|perl' | sort -u

Ah, I see you have the perl-Net-SNMP package, but not the actual net-snmp packages, and we need both in this case. Let's get those in place with:

Code: Select all

yum install net-snmp-perl
