no more graphics in Thruk GUI

[airathere]

Hi all,

from one day to another i'm suddenly unable to get graphics when clicking on "Show performance chart" in my services - it always results (in each case) with a "no data".

Restarting the omd does not help, neither restarting the whole system...
What can i do? Is there a description somewhere to follow in such cases?

I am on OMD 5.30-labs-edition with Thruk 3.12, host is OK (no load, enough free hdd space)

Thanks for any help!
Joe

There are many wheels involved here, which graphing and database do you use?

omd config show | grep -E "(PNP4NAGIOS|NAGFLUX|INFLUXDB|VICTORIAMETRICS|GEARMAND):"

[airathere]

Hello jstark1,

thank you for your help!
The answer to the above command is:

INFLUXDB: on
NAGFLUX: on
PNP4NAGIOS: off
VICTORIAMETRICS: off

[jstark1]

now i would look for recent performance data with (replace hostname and command)

influx
Connected to http://127.0.0.1:8086 version 1.8.10
InfluxDB shell version: 1.8.10
> use nagflux;
Using database nagflux
> SELECT * FROM "metrics" WHERE "host" = 'localhost' and command = 'check_ping' and time > '2024-11-30T14:25:00Z' LIMIT 10

[airathere]

if i execute the command i get answers until the date since it stops to show graphs (21.11.2024), after that i get no results:

`

SELECT * FROM "metrics" WHERE "host" = 'win1' and command = 'check-host-alive' and time > '2024-11-21T14:25:00Z' LIMIT 10

`

Additionally i recognized today, that since 10 days the partitons free space is rapidly decreasing!
It seems that there is a problem somewhere with "cleaning up" data?!
This is remarkable because the system is up for 3 years now and there have never been such a problem.

[jstark1]

ok, nagflux is not writing data to the influxdb. I would check etc/mod-gearman/server.cfg for "perdata=grafana_data", and ModGearman section in etc/nagflux/config.gcfg.
See https://omd.consol.de/docs/omd/howtos/grafana/

some troubleshooting commands:

omd diff etc/mod-gearman/server.cfg
omd diff etc/nagflux/config.gcfg
gearman_top -b | grep grafana_data

[airathere]

i don't think so:

root@nus:# df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
udev 7,8G 0 7,8G 0% /dev
tmpfs 1,6G 948K 1,6G 1% /run
/dev/sda2 98G 48G 46G 52% /
...

[lausser]

But InfluxDB thinks so. Same error message here: https://community.influxdata.com/t/writing-on-influxdb-stopped-no-space-on-device/2328

[airathere]

OK, understand.
i rebooted the host now and the error with "no space left on device" disappeared: good.
But data are still not available, the log var/log/nagflux/nagflux.log now says:

Does noone has an idea for me for resolving my problem?

[airathere]

Hi again,
my graphs are missed now for over 3 weeks, and in the meanwhile i have a problem with it.
What can i do?
Is there someone who can help me?

Any answer appreciated!

Joe

[lausser]

I am sorry, it is not possible to solve your problem based on some log snippets and try this, try that,....
The nagflux.log is full of error messages and to me it looks like the influxdb is damaged (provided the perfoormance data are correct and not the reason for the errors)
You should find some help from the influxdb developers, but we (as authors of OMD) are only users ourselves and can't help here.
