issues with generic_data_inc
Hi there!
I have some troubles with data type generic_data_inc:
as says documentation:The whole numeric data equals to the differential being between the current value and the previous one. When this differential is negative, the value is fixed to 0.
Im create a modules to monitor eth1 data flow, here the definition of modules:
# Networking. module_begin module_name nettraf_eth1_in module_type generic_data_inc module_exec cat /sys/class/net/eth1/statistics/rx_bytes module_postprocess 0.0009765625 module_description Bytes IN (postprocess ti Kb) module_end module_begin module_name nettraf_eth1_out module_type generic_data_inc module_exec cat /sys/class/net/eth1/statistics/tx_bytes module_postprocess 0.0009765625 module_description Bytes OUT (postprocess to Kb) module_end
but i get randomly “0” value in data( see screenshot ),
as i know /sys/class/net/eth1/statistics/tx_bytes returns a value of total transmitted bytes on eth1 and this value always increment. But how there zerros appear? and why timestamp of zerro values are same. I look it in mysqlSELECT * FROMÂ `tagente_datos`WHEREÂ `id_agente_modulo` =%AgentID%
the zerro values have same timestamp with the previous one (see screenshot)

Find out problem:
file Core.pm
1860 str
# Should not happen
return 0 if ($utimestamp == $data_inc->{‘utimestamp’});
that cases incorrect average data calculations in graphs.Also to devs – its better in inc data type check if last value = now value don’t write in db. Less records in db => better performance.
attached corected file with catch this type of exception;

Hi eXXon,
Thank you for taking the time to send us a patch. I’ve fixed the part where 0 was returned when a second value with the same timestamp arrived, but data compression is already handled in the function pandora_process_module, it should work for incremental modules, ¿doesn’t it work for you? Thank you again.
