graphs that use multiple RRD files as input

Hi Steve

Not sure if it's what you are looking for, but check the GRAPHS= in
xymonserver.cfg
If you have a value, let's call it my_test, it will determine the order in
which they will appear on the trends column.
But you can also define the number of data sets (lines) per graph, by
adding ::X after the entry, where X is number of data sets.
Not sure if it works for the primary test display though.

 I figured this out.


First in cgioptions.cfg I had to add

CGI_SVC_OPTS=”…
--multigraphs=,disk,inode,qtree,quotas,snapshot,TblSpace,if_load,DBAreas"

Initially I added just my custom “DBAreas” but that broke the others.  The
html.c code says if mulitgraphs is blank then put “disk…if_load” as
defaults but if it isn’t blank then those don’t get loaded so we have to
basically add them back.


Adding the mods to cgioptions.cfg worked to a degree. It was graphing the
first 4 of my rrds onto one graph but it was only creating the one graph.


To fix that problem I had to add

<!-- linecount=44-->"

Into the message/text that is sent

Like this

INFO=$INFO\n” <!-- linecount=40 -->”

status $MACHINE.$TEST $COLOR $INFO

*Subject:* graphs that use multiple RRD files as input


I have a graph setup on a custom test that is using multiple RRD files as
input. The graph is working but it is combining all the RRDs into a single
graph instead of splitting them up like the built in “disk” graphs.


Is there a parameter missing in my graphs.cfg definition or some other
place I need to modify in order to have Xymon automatically split the graph
up into multiple graphs?


Thanks

Steve
