url to query all graphs for a specific device ???

[repudi8or]

Hi Folks,

Just wondering how I tailor the url to present the preview page for all graphs for device X ??

I can do :-

http://mycactiserver/cacti/graph_view.php?action=preview&host_id=1&graph_template_id=0&filter=

To get all preview graphs for host_id #1

but if host_id 1 = device solarisserver1

how can i make something similar to this work :-
http://mycactiserver/cacti/graph_view.php?action=preview&host_name=solarisserver1&graph_template_id=0&filter=

and have the same graphs as the first url presents?

Basically i want to embed the graphs for a particular device into another page and all i have available is the device name, not the host_id.

And yes if there is no alternative, I will extract the data necessary to xref devicename vs host_id.

I was just hoping this is not necessary and the process can be dynamic.

This was already requested some time ago. There's no builtin support for this with cacti. In fact, the hostname/IP@ is not stored as a unique index with cacti. And there are some uses for "doubling" a device in cacti.
But it would be quite easy to create a transformation table. All you need is the table "host", columns "id" and "hostname".
