rrd graph orientation

Is there a way to move a graph (like the cpu) graph to the top of the
display? Right now it's at the bottom of the page and I need to scroll
through the list of processes to see the graph. I've looked at the
hobbitgraph.cfg file and can't find a obvious way to move a graph to the
top of the page. 

Thanks,

I don't think it can be done by fooling with config files, at least not in
xymon-4.3.0-beta2.  If you're up to altering the source, I think the
relevant bit is around line 312 in  xymon-4.3.0-beta2/lib/htmllog.c :

        if (!htmlfmt) fprintf(output, "<PRE>\n");
        textwithcolorimg(restofmsg, output);
        if (!htmlfmt) fprintf(output, "\n</PRE>\n");

Moving that down to around line 450 puts the content of the status message
under everything else.  I don't *think* that would break anything else, but
you should back up your xymon installation before doing the update...

As written in hobbitserver.cfg, section GRAPHS :
"This defines which RRD files to include on the "trends" column webpage,
and the order in which they appear"

So I think you should put "la" (Load Average) to the top of the values
defined in variable GRAPHS, like this :

GRAPHS="la,disk,test,other_test,..."

The OP said "need to scroll through the list of processes to see the graph",
which suggests he's looking at the cpu detail page, not the trends page.

Ralph is right that I'm trying to modify the cpu detail page so the graph
is at the top of the page. I'll try changing the source and recompile.
Thanks for the suggestions.

Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their
level and beat you with experience.
