Hi all
With the addition of diskstat/iostat info (along with zonestat, mpstat, a
few other custom graphs, and the standard Xymon graphs), the trends column
is really starting to look a little full. Cluttered might even be a better
word.
It would be nice to have a diskstat column for my server with all the
diskstat info on one page, but the way it works right now, we can't have
multiple graphs on a test page, particularly when these graphs are of
different scales. (counters, percentage, kb etc)
You can if you this is a custom test.
What I do, is put some <img> and <a> links at the bottom of my custom test
pages with the graphs I want:
<a href=\"/hobbit-cgi/hobbitgraph.sh?host=$SVC&service=svc-
mdg&nostale&color=green&action=menu\"><img src=\"/hobbit-
cgi/hobbitgraph.sh?host=$SVC&service=svc-
mdg&nostale&color=green&action=view&graph=hourly\" /></a>
(this is from a perl script so the " is escaped)
And like Roland replied, forget about ncv and use a trends message for the
rrd. This is much more simple.
Also, if you want to include an extra trend for a particularly host, you can
use the parameter GRAPHS in bb-hosts for that host.
