RRD Graphs
-
I fixed an issue with drawing of quality graphs on fresh installs and NanoBSD earlier today. It was too late for the next snapshot, but the one after should be OK.
-
Jim any ideas on the traffic graphs etc in my instance. Just to let you know when I deleted the rrd files and recreated them I then did a restore of the old rrd graphs.
-
Not that I know of, I haven't seen any problems with the other graphs, just the quality graph.
It may not be drawing the data in the graph where you expect though, the graphs start on hard boundaries now and if you catch them early in the day most of the current graph will be empty.
-
Is there a command I can use or anything I can do to see if they system is actually recording the data.
-
Just look at:
ls /var/db/rrd/
If the timestamps are current, the files are being touched.

It's also one being updated: 19:51 GW_WAN-quality.rrd
:-)
-
So is this a graph drawing issue.
-
Strange what is going on.
sizes are the same as well

RRD files are round-robin database files (hence RRD) which remain a consistent size as they store rotating (round-robin) data. So if they will maintain history for a year, they start big enough to hold a year's worth of data and never grow or shrink, they are just updated with new data at the proper place. Hence the same file sizes.

Jim fixed a permissions issue today that should fix the quality graphs.
https://rcs.pfsense.org/projects/pfsense/repos/mainline/commits/3d83f02e958a52e35cf098a3cd3f7031f53d69a0though that only applies when the directory is created. May need something to fix permissions on existing directories. To manually fix, run:
chown nobody:wheel /var/db/rrd/*quality*.rrd -
Ok fair enough so the files size shouldn't change. So how would I delve into the problem more to see if it is a graphing issue or data issue.

FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASETried that and even rebooted - Quality still isn't working.
-
That will be a no-op on NanoBSD if you reboot after doing it. /var is a RAM disk. You'd need to be on the latest snapshot (I think it should have the fix) before that will work.

That is the latest snapshot.
I only rebooted as its still blank.

I found another bug, but it's definitely fixed now. :-)
Either apply this by hand, or wait for the next new snapshot:

I'll wait for the next update.
I'm just testing and providing feedback.
Thanks !!!

Sorry. Been away.

Still no good for me.
