it does need some extra work...but it would be great to see as part of the core. Will this be part of an upgrade for the 8 release or will it be part of 9 release?

I modified sql query and added Archive function (if we could call it a function :p)

Last and final update.

it works wonderfully now. Perfect

Thanks. I see where the problem was and thanks for the quick fix.

it's not really perfect. The query will only return unknown rrd file. If you delete a graph without deleting data source, the rrd won't be updated but it still "known".

Obviously I missed this one when it first came out - but I've got it now. As expected, it found a lot of rrd files I no longer use. Unfortunately, it won't delete them and doesn't tell me WHY it won't delete them!

r4_fivemin_1599.rrd Error : unable to delete!

Who has to have access? Thats the first thing I checked, and then changed everything in the RRA folder to cactiusers:users.

It is curious that many of those files were originally cactiuser:root - but, regardless, it still won't delete them. I've chmod 666 even...

knoby,

try to assign user/group permission of your apache2 server account to the rra directory and your backup directory if you want use this feature.

For example I use wwwrun as user and www as group and it works.

I only get an error after I have cleaned all files

Code:

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /srv/www/htdocs/cacti/plugins/rrdclean/rrdcleaner.php on line 38
  

but in general it works.

no chance to get that thing running. I'm running FC5 and cacti 0.8.6.h.
is there somewhere a procedure what to change and where?

':oops:'

Code:

I got this one to run:

RRDCleaner
 12/2004 by berger@hk-net.de
 
 Deletes unused .rrd-files in cactis rrd/ directory
 Note: You should know what you are doing!
 On errors: Check if the rrd/ dir is writeble by the webserver-user!
 
 Usage:
 put rrdcleaner.php in the cacti-root dir.

 Beginners:
 Delete rrdcleaner.php after usage for security reasons.

 Professionals:
 To use cactis build in authentication modify the $user_auth_realm_filenames array in
 include/config_arrays.php (line 272).

   Add the following line: 
   "rrdcleaner.php" => 1

 After that, uncomment one of the following lines:
*/

//To use cacti authentication uncomment this:
//include("include/auth.php");

//To use cacti authentication comment this out:
include("include/config.php");
.
.

but it seems pretty old and you added new features.
any help is appreciated

thx
