View source for Cacti: instalasi di Ubuntu

Before installing cacti you need to make sure to install all dependencies.

1 – Lamp server

First step is to install Lamp server (Apache, Mysql, PHP)

 sudo apt-get install apache2 mysql-server php5 libapache2-mod-php5

2 – RRDtools

A useful open source tool for storage and retrieval of time series data.

 sudo apt-get -y install rrdtool

3 – SNMP and SNMPd

If you want to monitor the localhost where cacti is installed you need to install and configure the service snmpd.

 sudo apt-get -y install snmp snmpd

Now after installing all dependencies we start the installation of cacti.

4 – Cacti and Spine

If you want a faster way to poll servers for information than the default php script cmd.php, you need to install cacti-spine.

 sudo apt-get -y install cacti cacti-spine

Popup message will appear like this just select OK and move on.

Now it will ask you for a webserver that you will use it, we choose Apache2 since that’s what we installed in the  dependencies.
