Monitor Windows Service stats from Linux

The template was likely created in either "I" or "J". You can correct this by either 1) upgrading, 2) adding the hash values to your include/config_arrays.php I'm pretty sure.

For now option 2 would be the fastest way, do I need to add one of those long hash code into the config_arrays.php?

Lol I did that it says now:

Error: XML: Generated with a newer version of Cacti.

I think I should upgrade ^^

Go figure. I think that's a good Idea. It's not as dificult as you think. I simply do the following:

Oh, and do it between polls....

1) Backup your web site. Don't worry about the RRA's.
2) Untar the distribution somewhere like "/var/www/html/cacti.new" and make sure the config.php and cacti.log files are deleted.
2.5) Apply the patches to the cacti.new directory.
3) Then do the following "cp -rp /var/www/html/cacti.new/* /var/www/html/cacti"
4) Copy the include/config.php.dist to include/config.php and change the ID and password to match you system.
5) Refresh your browser.

It's that easy (OH UNLESS YOU ARE RUNNING THE PLUGIN ARCHITECTURE).

I'm running the plugin thing

.
But I can install it easyly again.

Would about the stats? Will they get lost, or remain they with all devices in the mysql db?

Between these releases there is no significant database changes. Therefore, you should be just fine.
