So here we go:
For cacti installation on RHEL or CentOS we need below package to be installed in the system:
httpd
php
php-mysql
php-snmp
php-ldap (when using LDAP authentication)
php-xml
mysql
mysql-server
net-snmp (depending on the distro, net-snmp-utils may be required)
Step 1:
Fetch cacti from cacti.net
[bhaskar@Amazon-instances ~]$ wget -c http://www.cacti.net/downloads/cacti-0.8.7g.tar.gz

Step 2:
Get the required software in the box:
[bhaskar@Amazon-instances ~]$ sudo yum install httpd php php-mysql php-snmp php-xml mysql mysql-server net-snmp

php-common.x86_64 0:5.2.4-RightScale php-pdo.x86_64 0:5.2.4-RightScale
Complete!
Step 3:
Now unzipping the tarball we downloaded from the cacti site:
[bhaskar@Amazon-instances ~]$ tar -xvzf cacti-0.8.7g.tar.gz
[bhaskar@Amazon-instances ~]$ ls
cacti-0.8.7g cacti-0.8.7g.tar.gz
Step 4:
Move the cacti dir to short and convinient name
[bhaskar@Amazon-instances ~]$ mv cacti-0.8.7g cacti
[bhaskar@Amazon-instances ~]$ ls
cacti cacti-0.8.7g.tar.gz
Step 5:
Now move the cacti dir to the document root of the system:
[bhaskar@Amazon-instances ~]$ sudo mv -v cacti /var/www/html/
`cacti' -> `/var/www/html/cacti'
Step 6:
Addming Cacti group and user in the box:
[bhaskar@Amazon-instances ~]$ sudo /usr/sbin/groupadd cacti
Adding users for cacti:
[bhaskar@Amazon-instances ~]$ sudo /usr/sbin/useradd -g cacti amazoncacti
Adding password to the user:
[bhaskar@Amazon-instances ~]$ sudo /usr/bin/passwd amazoncacti
Changing password for user amazoncacti.
New UNIX password:
Retype new UNIX password:
passwd: all authentication tokens updated successfully.
Step 7:
Chnage the ownership of few dir in the cacti base dir:
[bhaskar@Amazon-instances cacti]$ sudo /bin/chown -R amazoncacti rra/ log/
[bhaskar@Amazon-instances cacti]$ ls -ld rra log
drwxr-xr-x 2 amazoncacti bhaskar 4096 Dec 30 2009 log
drwxr-xr-x 2 amazoncacti bhaskar 4096 May 16 2010 rra
Step 8:
MySql admin password creation:
[bhaskar@Amazon-instances cacti]$ sudo /usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root password somethingsensible
Step 9:
Create Cacti database for use:
[bhaskar@Amazon-instances cacti]$ sudo /usr/bin/mysql -u root -p
Enter password:
Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MySQL connection id is 3
Server version: 5.0.77 Source distribution
Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer.
mysql> create database cacti;
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
Step 10:
Sourcing the default sql file into cacti database like below:
mysql> source cacti.sql
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec
output snipped for the sake of bravity!!!
Step 11:
Now time to grant some priviledge to the cacti user to get into the database and fetch thing from it. From the mysql shell do follow:
mysql> GRANT ALL ON cacti.* TO amazoncacti@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'somethingsensible';
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
Refreshing the grant table:
mysql> flush privileges;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
Step 12:
Now time for edit some files within cacti directory..
[bhaskar@Amazon-instances cacti]$ sudo vim include/config.php
Here it looks like inside... and I have change the database username and password entry in it:
$database_type = "mysql";
$database_default = "cacti";
$database_hostname = "localhost";
$database_username = "amazoncacti";
$database_password = "somethingsensible";
$database_port = "3306";
Step 13:
I am creating a cron job to polls for the infomration:
[root@Amazon-instances cacti]# crontab -e
[root@Amazon-instances cacti]# crontab -l
*/5 * * * * amazoncacti /usr/bin/php /var/www/html/cacti/poller.php > /dev/null 2>&1
Step 14:
Some php tweaking for the betterment:
[root@Amazon-instances cacti]# sudo vim /etc/php.ini
In this file I have changed memory_limit variable 32M to 128M
Step 15:
Now we need to got to the web interface of it,by pressing the following url into the browser:
http://Amazon-instances.amazonaws.com/cacti/
Step 16:
Snmpwalk not found by the cacti installer so go ahead and installed more binaries:
[root@Amazon-instances ~]# yum install net-snmp-utils net-snmp-devel

Step 16:
So once the web interface installed the thing we are presented the login page into with default admin/admin username/password .Now I have change that password to like below:
username : admin
password : admin
Step 17:
Adding amazoncacti user to apache group:
[bhaskar@Amazon-instances ~]$ sudo /usr/sbin/usermod -G apache -a amazoncacti
[bhaskar@Amazon-instances ~]$ id amazoncacti
uid=503(amazoncacti) gid=503(cacti) groups=48(apache),503(cacti)
Step 18:
Installing new crontab for user amazoncacti for run the poller.php
[root@Amazon-instances html]# sudo su - amazoncacti
[amazoncacti@Amazon-instances ~]$ crontab -e
no crontab for amazoncacti - using an empty one
crontab: installing new crontab

Step 26:
patching the cacti installation dir for PIA
Upon dry run we get this:
[bhaskar@Amazon-instances cacti]$ sudo patch -p1 -N --dry-run < /home/bhaskar/cacti-plugin-arch/cacti-plugin-0.8.7g-PA-v2.8.diff

Step 26:
problem.....we need to get those two file from old location if we go ahed and do the patching
let's go:
[bhaskar@Amazon-instances cacti.orig]$ sudo cp -pv include/top_header.php /var/www/html/cacti/include/
`include/top_header.php' -> `/var/www/html/cacti/include/top_header.php'
[bhaskar@Amazon-instances cacti.orig]$ sudo cp -pv auth_login.php /var/www/html/cacti/
`auth_login.php' -> `/var/www/html/cacti/auth_login.php'
So failed patched files are copied back to modified dir.
Step 27:
Applying patched for PIA in the database
[bhaskar@Amazon-instances cacti-plugin-arch]$ sudo mysql -u amazoncacti -p
Enter password:

Step 30:
move the plug in dir to cacti's plugin dir
[bhaskar@Amazon-instances ~]$ sudo mv -v discovery /var/www/html/cacti/plugins/
`discovery' -> `/var/www/html/cacti/plugins/discovery'
Step 31:
Activate the plug in:
put a line like this in /var/www/html/cacti/include/config.php
$plugins[] = 'discovery';
### For every extra downloaded plug in we need to put up a line like this.
Now time for some graph..disk usage:
Here is another one memory usage:
Here one for the cpu usage;
Here something for eth0 and processes;
Hope this will help. Cacti is certainly not the easiest graphing solutions..but very cool to have one.
Cheers!
