Killspike integration in webinterface

Instigater

It would be nice to have killspike feature in web interface. It is quite hard to find the right filename for specific graph if they are thousands. Spikes in that amount of graphs show up quite frequenty.

Nice ideea

Done.

use killspike as any ordinary plugin (grant access to users first).
also, unpack removespikes.zip in <cacti_dir>/scripts (removespikes.pl)

WARNING: The user that runs the webserver MUST have r/w access to the rra files.

Briljant, works like a charm.

I think this is a much needed addon.

I'm not sure why, but I am receiving the same error after installing this plugin that I did when installing the dataquery plugin (before pestilence fixed it). The error is "Notice: Undefined index: index.php: in /var/www/cacti/lib/functions.php on line 1420". This is on a fresh install of cacti-0.8.6i that I am putting up to test with. Any ideas on how I can fix this?

I get a lot of errors in the apache log too:

Alice,

The plugin is incomplete. Every command/subcommand must be registered. If you look at the MacTrack plugin, for example, there is a register function that makes sure that all the variables are set. This registration allows the navigation to work correctly. Look for the keyword "nav" in your search of the setup.php for that plugin.

Alice,

Also, being that this is an operation that you actually have "Write" access to, it should have a security setting per user. So, make sure you setup a distinct security pick for this so that not all users have accesss.

i puted $plugins[] = 'killspike'; in config.php

shakey_1: right. forgot to add "return $nav;", sorry.

timi: console -> user management and add the right to use killspike to your user
