So doing more testing with this. When I add a device via CLI the poller never tries to poll it, looking at the DB it shows poller_id is 0. Is there something in the config on the poller server im missing? I don't see how it would get assigned tto then do the polling.
Looking at add_device.php I see no flags to pass to say "this is poller ID X". I see in the source there is a $config['poller_id'] so I set that to the number, but when adding a new device it does not show that number in the database.
Is there something I am missing or another set of docs maybe?
Thanks

Makes sense, easier to script as well for us. Ill just add it via CLI on the polling node.
Thanks for the help!

The quickest and easiest is to add the device via the CLI on the poller you want to associate it with. That way you ensure it has the needed connectivity and that the poller is set in the DB without having to make changes via the UI.

So we just add via CLI on those nodes? I guess that's the best way?
Thanks!

Hi,
The poller instances aren't expected to have a web interface :)

So doing some more digging, if I login to the master instance all the graphs are there. No graphs on the poller instance. I guess that makes sense as the poller instance has no access to the actual RRD files, is that then correct? Just only use the master instance for actually viewing anything?
Also just to make sure, we have to add the devices from the poller instance, only way to do that, correct?
Thanks

Hi,
I've set this up per what I can find in the docs. Master server has RRDcached running, MySQL and web server. I have another server acting as poller server. I go to that server and add hosts, the host add find. All the graphs are failing and on the local server i t shows nothing in the RRD dir (which is right I would think), on the remote hosts it shows RRD files but when I do a debug I see "file already exists" and it does on the remote server.
Looking at the rrd.journal file I see updates being issued and see no errors.
On the polling server I have added: $config['rrdcached'] = "x.x.x.x:42217"; $config['rrd']['no_local'] = TRUE;
And updated cron to: */5 * * * * observium /opt/observium/observium-wrapper -i 1 -n 0 discovery --host new >> /dev/null 2>&1 # Run multithreaded poller wrapper every 5 minutes */5 * * * * observium /opt/observium/observium-wrapper -i 1 -n 0 poller >> /dev/null 2>&1
As I have one poller server and this is the first one.
I see no other errors in other logs but all graphs show "error drawing graph". Is there something else in my config I am missing to make this work?
Thanks
