Show trends graph as test?
list John Horne
Hello, Using Xymon 4.3.7 I see that the 'trends' column can show graphs for the host network interface (network traffic/bits per second) and disk I/O utilisation (from iostat). My understanding is that the information comes from each host via the client data. My question is, is it possible to get these two items reported as separate tests? That is, as a test named (say) 'iostat' which shows the disk I/O utilisation graph as seen in 'trends'. And another test called 'netstat' (or 'ifstat') for the network traffic graph? The data is already being collected (as evidenced by the trends column), but I'm not sure how to breakout these graphs so that they can be reported as individual specific tests with their own column. Thanks, John. -- John Horne Tel: +XX (X)XXXX XXXXXX Plymouth University, UK Fax: +XX (X)XXXX XXXXXX

Yeah, forget all that :-) I wasn't thinking really. Doing this then what would the 'test' be - i.e. what defines when it goes yellow or red?
