Can I have you run the following
Code: Select all
ll /usr/local/nagios/share/perfdata/localhost/*.rrd
If the date is the 31st for these it is likely working.
Is it all
graph s that are not working? If you go to
Admin -> System Status
&
Admin -> Monitoring Engine Status
Are all items green?

In the output, the date is Nov 1st so it looks right.
Yes, all graph s are not working since Oct 26th.
In the monitoring engine status, in process settings, external commands is red.
Thank you.

Can you look in your /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg and see if
If not, make it so.
Also, can I have you run the following and return the results
Code: Select all
ll /usr/local/nagios/share/perfdata/localhost/*.rrd

Check_external_commands value was 1. I did not have to change it.
The output for the command is
[root@localhost etc]# ll /usr/local/nagios/share/perfdata/localhost/*.rrd

So the RRD's are updating...
If you go to the localhost -> PING Service detail page and click performance graph s tab, do you see a blank graph ? Can you post a screenshot?

Hello,
I am sorry I should have explained before. The ping service and the rest of the host graph s are fine but its the switches port's graph s that are not being plotted on the graph explorer nor the Bandwidth usage page. One more thing in the graph below it shows the wrong time. I keep changing the server's time but it keeps going back to 5 hours past the present time.
Thank you.

Ok, when following the document
http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagi ... ios_XI.pdf
Did you add the LibAdd item to the /etc/mrtg/mrtg.cfg as described on page 2?

This could also be an issue, is the timezone set correctly on the server?

Hello,
HtmlDir: /var/www/mrtg
ImageDir: /var/www/mrtg
LogFormat: rrdtool
LogDir: /var/lib/mrtg
ThreshDir: /var/lib/mrtg
LibAdd /opt/rrdtool-1.4.4/lib/perl/5.10.1
I added the LibAdd in mrtg.cfg but I just followed the document. Should there be a ":" after LibAdd? /opt/rrdtool-1.4.4/lib/perl/5.10.1 is what I got as my Lib.
I set the Timezone as central using export TZ= but got to know that this command is temporary. I changed the localtime file in /etc so now the PHP time and system time are synced and the graph s are fine.
Thank you.

Yes, we missed that in the documentation.
I will be fixing it ASAP. I am glad your
graph s are working now!

Well the system time has been changed and the host graph s are showing the right time but my switch port graph s are still blank. I am not sure if they take time to update as they have to process data from Oct 26th.
Thank you.
