graph compare
list Olivier Beau
Hi Henrik i'm sure this question was asked before, but cant find it in the archive.. under bb/larrd, i used to compare graphs from differents hosts, with larrd-graphs.cgi (mainly to see that load-balancing was done correctly..) is there a way to do this under hobbit ? if not, no problem; but it'll be nice to have this feature one day :) actually, i think the display should be done a different way than with larrd-graphs.cgi : could it be possible (and not to hard to code) to display several DS from different host on the same graph ? (so i could really easy compare for example the cpu load of different host.. using LINE and not AREA fo course..) -- Olivier Beau

Hi, The cross host graph linking of bb/butter was really nice (it really was a tastier healthier version of laard). I would really like to see this type of cross linking in hobbit/rrd. Another nice feature would be allowing the height and width of images to specified as CGI parameters. Jason.

Here is an example of graph-compare/cross-link feature http://bigbrother.ucs.sfu.ca/cgi-bin/larrd-grapher.cgi?service=la <http://bigbrother.ucs.sfu.ca/cgi-bin/larrd-grapher.cgi?service=la&host=fras er.sfu.ca> &host=fraser.sfu.ca Load Average Trends: <http://bigbrother.ucs.sfu.ca/cgi-bin/larrd-grapher.cgi?service=la&graph=hou rly> All hosts Host fraser.sfu.ca Trends: <http://bigbrother.ucs.sfu.ca/cgi-bin/larrd-grapher.cgi?host=fraser.sfu.ca&g raph=hourly> All services and...

Another nice feature would be allowing the height and width of images to
specified as CGI parameters.
thanks.

I did some work on this, and have just finished the changes needed to a) let you define the default size of the graphs through two settings in hobbitserver.cfg (RRDHEIGHT and RRDWIDTH); b) modify the graph URL so you can choose any size you like dynamically. Regards, Henrik

I've taken a look at your idea, so let me know what you think of this: Load avg. comparison: http://www.hswn.dk/hobbit-cgi/hobbitgraph.sh?host=voodoo.hswn.dk&host=fenris.hswn.dk&service=la&graph_width=576&graph_height=120&action=menu CPU % utilization comparison (from the vmstat data): http://www.hswn.dk/hobbit-cgi/hobbitgraph.sh?host=voodoo.hswn.dk&host=fenris.hswn.dk&service=la1&graph_width=576&graph_height=120&action=menu I've done a couple of other service definitions - ram, swap, users, procs - but this should give you the general idea. You can of course compare more than one host by adding more "&host=..." items in the URL. Things like zoom should also work (I think it's broken now, but it did work an hour ago...) Regards, Henrik

Nice... Very nice.... My boss has been asking me for something like this for a few months now.... :) -- --==[ Bob Gordon ]==--

Hi henrik, yes, this is it :))) it looks like you have to write new definitions (i tried service=tcp on your demo site, didnt work) but i guess it would be pretty easy to have some kind of abstration for not having to rewrite the definitions.. ohh, one thing thow, since i'll be using those to compare apache trends (and oher custom trends..) it would be useful to have a total and/or an average of the selected host (aggregate under mrtg..); just displayed as GPRINT yes, i know.., i'm asking to much ;p -- olivier

Hi, Can I get some assistance with configuring the format of the SCRIPT command for hobbit-alerts ? I have a script that sends an sms message with the following syntax /ext/sms/sms.pl -c /ext/sms/send -m "Sms message here" number I have tried this but it doesn't work, SCRIPT /ext/sms/sms.pl -c /ext/sms/send -m "FORMAT=SMS" number any ideas ? Ger.
list Peter Welter
See: http://www.hswn.dk/hobbit/help/hobbit-alerts.html#scripts Write a tiny wrapper script which is a valid argument for the SCRIPT-option. Number is an argument for the wrapper script. So the correct syntax would be: SCRIPT /home/hobbit/bin/sendsms number FORMAT=SMS and the script /home/hobbit/bin/sendsms should contain your pager stuff.
