Structured path not created when using remote poller and Update On-Demand
With the bugfix from #376 the structured path is only created by the poller. When using remote pollers with the On-Demand Update option, the structued path for new devices is only created after the specific time or max item limit has been reached.
Maybe an option to force-run the creation with the next poller cycle for new data sources would help.
Current workaround is to wait for the normal update to kick in, or set th max-item limit to a very low number (e.g. 1) so the rrd update is forced to run.
Thomas, we would welcome a pull request if you can muster the creative energy to crease one.
Will do. Didn't have time yet as I am finishing the new Cacti 1.x book and I wanted to track the issues I've found. Better to get them in here then having a separate list.
The poller is only kicked in on schedule by cron (or task scheduler on windows) as far as I was aware. Therefore, you can't force it to kick in from the website. Instead, we should be handling gracefully that the files may not exist yet if we are in a structured approach by possibly adding a "requires update" flag which gets cleared by the poller.
