Fail to delete over one thousand graphs in RTM

Troubleshooting


Problem

When try to delete more than 1000 graphs, operation fails.

Symptom

From Console (tab) -> Management -> Graphs

Use 'Rows' drop down list to select 1000 rows.

Select all graphs in the list, and choose the 'Delete' action, Click 'Go' button.

The page just reloads quickly, no graphs get deleted.

Cause

It is caused by low value php setting -
max_input_vars
The default value is 1000, so no more than 1000 entries can be posted to HTTP POST.

Resolving The Problem

In /etc/php.ini, set max_input_vars value to a bigger number, e.g. 6000
If the line is commented-out, un-comment it first.

Then restart httpd and retry deleting 1000, or even 5000 graphs
