The templates should import fine on newer versions if you generate them for an older version, but if that isn’t the case, submit a bug for that too.

I am using version 0.8.7b and when i choose –cactiver it does not allow me to use 0.8.7b. It only shows and allows up to 0.8.6j. Any suggestions?

100 database servers with my old templates = 100 script executions.
100 database servers with MySQL Cacti templates = 2400 script executions.

Indeed, Cacti’s design is not optimal, and the lack of a decent polling/caching API is plagueing it.

I still think getting people to increase their fgets() sizes and doing all the polling in one call is optimal :). It just sucks that when you add graphs etc, you sometime get duplicated data sources. *grr*

I can perhaps commit to looking at some of the code december 1, after my vacation. Thanks for your great work so far :)

Are you sure the caching is working right? If not please put a bug report on the Google Code project. The point of my design is to work around Cacti’s limitations here: http://forums.cacti.net/viewtopic.php?t=26448#130332 Cacti’s design forces a tradeoff among various complaints, and caching results is the only good way around it right now.

As for Handler_* stats, I have no clue why I omitted those! Please submit a bug report on that.
