Have you tried to re-set the backend password? Not sure that's the problem here though.

The .rrd files for these graphs are located in /usr/local/nagios/share/perfdata
You should make sure the perms are nagios:nagios/777:666. You should also make sure the .rrd files are being updated and that the .xml files contain sensible data.

I'll look further as to what I'd do to debug this.

[mmestnik]

That is perms like so:

Code: Select all

chown -R nagios.nagios /usr/local/nagios/share/perfdata
find /usr/local/nagios/share/perfdata -type d -exec chmod 777 '{}' + -or -type f -exec chmod 666 '{}' +

Hi The xml file are arriving and contain good data but the rrd files are not getting updated as you can see from the date stamp.
-rw-rw-rw- 1 nagios nagios 384740 Mar 8 09:40 dise_1000.rrd
-rw-rw-rw- 1 nagios nagios 1111 Mar 9 11:43 dise_1000.xml
-rw-rw-rw- 1 nagios nagios 1104 Mar 10 08:34 dise-1000.xml

I believe the process responsible for this is located in /etc/cron.d/cacti that calls /var/www/cacti/poller.php every 5min as the user cacti. However I was informed that we migrated from using Cacti to using pnp.

I'll look into this further.

[dxf1]

the files /etc/cron.d/cacti and /var/www/cacti/poller.php don't exist on the server

The only files with cacti in the name are as follows ................

[root@oracle-mon cron.d]# find / -name '*cacti*'
/tmp/xi/13-cacti
/tmp/xi/nagiosxi/httpd.cacti.conf

Hi I have been looking at the pnp bits it would appear that we have an invalid device /dev/.udev/failed/devices@pnp0@00:04 ???

That's the Plug and Play bus. I'd guess it's for the old ISA PnP stuff.

HI,

Sorry I dont understand, how can I debug the issue and resolve the problem.

[admin]

This isn't a Cacti issue, as Cacti isn't installed on the box. All graphing is handled by PNP, so its likely a PNP issue. Try this:

Enable the log_level option in the following file: /usr/local/nagios/etc/pnp/npcd.cfg

Restart PNP with the following command:

service npcd restart

Examine the /usr/local/nagios/var/npcd.log file for error messages
