Performance Graphs on a Port Check

Back at the end of April we switched our host checks on some devices from a ping to a port 445 check. We noticed that on our performance graphs after we made the change they stopped mapping data. Is there a way to map the port check response time into a performance graph?

To get the graphs working again, you would have to delete the xml and rrd files for those hosts and the XI system will recreate them.
Go to this folder

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/share/perfdata/
Find the host name that the graphs are not updating and change to that folder.
Delete the following files.

Code: Select all

_HOST_.rrd
_HOST_.xml
And in about 20 minutes, the graphs should start updating.

There are about 3000 servers on that box who's graphs are not working, is there a way to do this for every host and not have to do it one by one?

You can run this procedure to update all of the graphs. You can ignore that it is for Ping Checks, it should work for all of your hosts graphs.
