Hi JP,

The memory issue (4) may be caused because of the units, in the rrd graphs 
jffnms uses the %s prefix to convert the units but this way it divides by 1000 
instead of 1024.

"GPRINT:storage_total:MAX:'%6.0lf %sB\\n'",  (portion of storage.inc.php)

Best Regards,
Felipe

Greetings to all.

First, a hearty thank-you to Javier and all of the other 
developers/contributors that have made JFFNMS such a useful and robust tool. 
Each of my previous three employers has been highly impressed with the 
capability and utility of JFFNMS. JFFNMS and Cacti have become my go-to tools 
for managing availability and performance of all hosts that I am responsible 
for (even when more expensive commercial tools are readily available).

On to my woes:

I am using 0.8.5 (with rrdtool v1.4.3-1) on Ubuntu Server 10.10 to monitor a 
mixed bag of physical servers and VMware (guest) hosts, and I am having some 
interesting issues. I've checked the archives carefully, but have been unable 
to resolve these issues on my own.

1.) I have no Traffic graphs on any host (The RRDTool files for Interface ID 72 
(from Host ID 4), has not been created by the Poller Process yet).
I'm running 0.8.5, so the backslash\colon bug is not in play here.

2.) Network interface utilization on all guests (all Server 2003 R2, some 
hardware, some VMs) shows '0%'. There is a blue line on the graph ('Output
Utilization') at 0%. There are no error messages.

3.) RTT & Packet Loss on all guests shows '0%'. There is a graph, but it is 
bare (no lines). Strangely, there is a 'The RRDTool files for Interface ID 84 
(from Host ID 5), has not been created by the Poller Process yet') message 
below the graph.

4.) Physical Memory 'total storage' value is detected incorrectly on every host 
with > 4GB RAM. The higher the installed physical RAM, the greater the error, 
it seems. See attached screen shots. Occasionally, the 'used storage max' 
value' exceeds the value of the physical RAM, as well. There is no 'total 
storage' line visible, except at the far end of the graph.

I've used JFFNMS previously (0.8.4 or 0.8.3, I believe), and had no issues, but 
then, I was not monitoring VMs, nor hosts with much more that 2-4GB installed 
RAM.

My current implementation is a proof-of-concept for the big shots, and I'd like 
to get these issues solved (or at least understand the current
limitations) before I seek final approval to install in production.

I'd be grateful for any assistance or further clues.

JP
