A big chunk of our development environment is virtualized and during the last MRTG upgrade we did the dev work on a virtualized system. The biggest problem we had was a clock drift issue which utterly broke MRTG. Without a reliable clock, RRD updates become bogus. I suspect this issue is fixed now (it's been a while) but the quickest way for me to deal with it was to go to a non-virtualized system.

We are contemplating moving it to a new box preferably with the latest version, and most likely moving it to a Red Hat OS on a VM instance on a ESX platform. Has anyone ran into any gotchas or problems that may forwarn us of any difficulty we may find. Also if anyone knows of any key issues that the latest version broke or fixed from version 2.15.2 it would be a help. If you could I would appreciate direct email regarding this to [EMAIL PROTECTED] However if you think it is applicable and use to other people feel free to copy it to the list. I just sometimes don't get a chance to read the list, and this will be an active project very soon and I will want to get it running ASAP. Thanks for any thoughts, opinions etc. Ray Kopp Syracuse University, NSM, Network Design & Development [EMAIL PROTECTED] 215 Machinery Hall Syracuse, New York 13244 _______________________________________________ mrtg mailing list [email protected] https://lists.oetiker.ch/cgi-bin/listinfo/mrtg _______________________________________________ mrtg mailing list [email protected] https://lists.oetiker.ch/cgi-bin/listinfo/mrtg
