Hi all

I don't know how to explain this, but one of my domU's doesn't show much network traffic it's used. 

We use Cacti for bandwidth monitoring, and rely on the network interface's names for it to work. So,I give each network interface a unique name, in the config files as follows:


[root@saturn ~]# more /etc/xen/wiseguy
name = "wiseguy"
uuid = "72feda9a-5755-0295-bf63-dcbc18445634"
maxmem = 512
memory = 512
vcpus = 1
bootloader = "/usr/bin/pygrub"
>

vfb = [  ]
disk = [ "phy:/dev/System/wiseguy,xvda,w" ]
vif  = ['ip=1.2.3.4, vifname=vifwise0,  mac=00:16:3e:19:17:50 ']


The domU has been running for about 8 hours now, yet I cannot get the traffic stats from it. Is there something else I should do as well?

Kind Regards
