Are there limits on the size of graphs in a dashboard? I ask because I've created a dashboard with 28 performance graphs, 7 from each of 4 hosts. The first twelve graphs allow you to click into the performance graphs window for that item, but the remaining charts are not clickable. These are PNP graphs added from the service check pages of each host.

This is NagiosXI 5.2.3, with Highcharts turned off (I've added specific perfdata templates to enabled the --rigid options so all graphs for a group display the same min and max value range).

Thanks.

Can I see a screenshot or two of what's going on? I added quite a few graphs to a dashboard (more than 12) and was able to interact with all of them.

Sorry for the delay. I somehow lost the dashboard and had to recreate it.

System details: RHEL 6.7, 64-bit, no special mods.

Here's a screenshot of the first 12 rows. In this new dashboard, only the first 8 graphs are clickable. The rest have no links behind them. I also included the html code, which shows that graphs 9 - 28 do not have an anchor element associated with them.

Very strange. I searched for "throbber_perfdata_chart_" to try and get a hint as to where that was being generated, but nothing came up. Might need to have a dev take a look.

One question I have, initially you said it was the first 12 and now it's the first 8 that do not have links - is this random or was that a miscount one of the times?

No, it varies. I just created a duplicate of the new dashboard, but with different hosts. On this third dashboard none of the graphs show up as links.

I do need this resolved before I can deploy to our users, so any help is is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Bill

I reviewed the HTML and it does indeed check out that only 8 links are working on there. We also tried to replicate this back here and were unable to.

Can you verify your pnp version?

I spoke with the developers and one of them noticed a difference with the graphs.

They replicated it by using hosts / services for graphs, and it seems that the hosts do generate links for the graphs, where as the services do not.

Can you create a new dashboard, and see if this is the case for your environment as well?

[root@nagiosxi libexec]# cat /usr/local/nagios/etc/pnp/pnp4nagios_release
PKG_REL_DATE="05-02-2009"
PKG_VERSION="0.4.14"
PKG_NAME="pnp"

The hosts I've been working with do not return any host performance data. All graphs have been from service checks.

I tried again to replicate this, but no errors. I wonder if it's related to specific services.

Can you try creating a new dashboard and add one of the existing services that doesn't work on one dash, to this new one? Does it work?
