Re: [Nagios-users] Version 2.12 vs. 3.1.2

For the most part, yes, v. 2 config files will convey transparently to v.3 There may be some of the more obscure parameters in v2 that don't work, but you'd have to consult the documentation to find out what, specifically. In general though, as long as you don't do anything TOO fancy,

I would double check these information. Cacti runs on rrd( round robin database). I have innodb for my ndoutils 1.47b. On Fri, Aug 7, 2009 at 3:03 PM, Andrew Davis ncc...@gmail.com wrote: Our Nagios server also has Cacti on it. I'm pretty sure that Cacti uses an InnoDB database, while

Okay, perhaps I inverted it then. My build of Cacti stores everything to a mysql DB, though it could admittedly be a myISAM DB with NDOutils being of the InnoDB type. However it works out, I'm pretty confident that I have two database types on one mysql server and I'm trying to figure out how

Really? You sure about that? I'm pretty confident that mysql supports different types of databases (myISAM and InnoDB as two of them) as well as different table types within a database. Your reply did help, though, as when I ran it for the default mysql DB, I was reminded of the phrase engine

My apologies... didn't mean to come across as rude. I figured that others may have tools like Cacti along with NDOutils on the same server and thus might find that they have multiple database types as well... hence my email to the Nagios list instead of the mysql list. In my case, I learned

[Nagios-users] Strengths of Cacti?

I'm curious to learn more about Cacti - the Cacti Web site and Google are of course very helpful, but I'm looking primarily for a comparison between Cacti and pnp4nagios. Right now, I'm using nagios 3.0.6 together with pnp4nagios, and that seems to be working very well, and setting up
