I noticed a problem with the packet filter graph today. The graph image itself was updating, but with no data... as if no packets were being filtered at all, which is what caught my attention. Looking into the problem further, I could see that packets were being filtered properly and were being logged. From what I could tell, everything else, including the rest of the graphs were working fine. When I checked the /var/log/reporting directory tree, the pfilter_*.png image files were all updating on schedule with the other images, but the pfilter.rrd file was no longer updating and hadn't been for about 4 hours. I checked the other system logs to determine what happened around that time. At exactly that time, I had done a manual update of the virus definitions which reported as being successfully updated. For grins, I rebooted the ASG box and now the pfilter.rrd and pfilter graphs are updating properly again.
Is this a known issue or a new bug with the new release? Any ideas on the true cause?
