Multiple graphs on one web page - not being shown
Why don't you create your graph link in your own test?
If i want some graphs in a custom test (f.e. combine cpuload, memory and traffic to have an overview about performance indicators on one page) i just echo the describing link.
If your rrd is there with useful data, and you can generate all the graphs manually (that means your graphs.cfg setting is correct), just add:
echo "
"
with TARGET as your server name and graph as the name of your custom graph.
This will add the picture of the hourly graph to your test page with the link to the others.
This is very convenient and flexible and allows you to have the graphs displayed everywhere on the page and not only at the end of the test page.
Several times i find it more useful to have the graphs on top of the page as it gives the most useful info fast, with all the technical details below.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [Xymon] Multiple graphs on one web page - not being shown
Hi,
Using the Terabithia RPMs I have created a custom test called 'es' (it's for
some stats from an elasticsearch search engine). I created a client-side script
to gather the current status and data for the graphs.
The 'status' message gets sent okay, and an 'es' column is created and the web
page shows a one-line summary of the search engine - e.g. 'It's fine', 'It's
not fine' etc. It changes colour depending on the colour being sent by the
client-side script. This works too.
The 'data' message from the script is also sent okay, and has created 3 RRD
files for the host. These are named 'es_heap.rrd', 'es_rates.rrd' and
'es_latency.rrd'. The values within them are being updated, and if I use a
crafted URL (using showgraph.sh) I can see that graphs for them are valid.
However, what I wanted was all 3 graphs to appear on the 'es' status page.
I have added 'es' as a test name to the hosts in the 'hosts.cfg' file. I have
also added 'es' to the TEST2RRD definition, but I'm not sure that is needed in
this case. I have also added 'GRAPHS_es="es-rates,es-latency,es-heap"' to the
'xymonserver.cfg' file. Within the 'graphs.cfg' file I have created the 3 graph
definitions using the 'GRAPHS_es' names.
For some reason though the graphs do not appear. We have several custom tests
which produce a single graph, but this is the first where we want more than one
graph shown.
Anyone any ideas about this?
As said, the RRD files are created and updated, using a browser I can see the
graphs so the definitions are fine. The 'es' status page shows no broken graph
link, it just shows the text I expect and then the usual 'Status unchanged'
message. Just no graphs.
Thanks,
John.
