Performance Graphs not working

Post by jlmoldan »

The upgrade to 2012R2.3 was completed on Sep 3rd at 00:54. At around 09:15 the performance graphs, graph explorer data and capacity planning graphs stopped receiving data.

Basic System Info:
- (CentOS release 6.4 (Final))
-Linux ust-nagios1p.stthomas.edu 2.6.32-358.14.1.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Jul 16 23:51:20 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
-Manual Install of Xi
-Using SSL

Our test environment works fine after upgrade. (vm image)

Troubleshot according to http://support.nagios.com/wiki/index.ph ... h_Problems

Checked permissions
drwxrwxr-x. 387 nagios nagios 20480 Aug 29 12:53 perfdata

Run the command manually
[root@ust-nagios1p libexec]# ./check_rrdtraf -f '/var/lib/mrtg/140.209.7.44_1.rrd' -w l -c 2
CRITICAL - Current BW in: 427.48Mbps Out: 85.97Mbps|in=427.482467Mb/s;l;2 out=85.975714Mb/s;l;2

Check perfdata directory permissions
was …drwxrwxr-x 56 nagios nagios 4096 Aug 7 17:58 perfdata
for the fun of it changed it to
drwxrwxrwx. 387 nagios nagios 20480 Aug 29 12:53 perfdata
bounced Nagios/httpd with no luck.

Bounced server and notices that the perfdata files are now updating (otherwise they were not changed since the 3rd) located at...
/usr/local/nagios/share/perfdata/

However, the graphs still don't show any data since the 3rd.

Lets check two log files:

Code: Select all

tail -25 /usr/local/nagios/var/perfdata.log
tail -25 /usr/local/nagios/var/npcd.log
