Graph parameters

 Hi Henrik

I have been scouting around the perl/CGI scripts (or at least that, what
I think they are) and I have seen where you set the disk graphs to a
maximum 4 file systems per graph, splitting them over multiple graphs as
reguired. (I think. What I know about perl & CGI is dangerous)

Is there a way you can implement that as a parameter for all custom
graphs?
I was thinking it might be good to add it as a parameter in the graph
definition in hobbitgraph.cfg

Regards
    Vernon

sorry to make up this name "sublevel alerts", correct me if there is a better term you think.


What:

sublevel alerts:  to be able to send out alerts to differrent owners of different monitored disk partitions or processes.

Why:
We found it is needed  to enable  the owner of a process or disk partition as the main recepient of the alerts. This way we can hold owner responsible on using the disk partition wisely. currently BB can only send out alerts to both unixteam and oracleteam when disk or process threshold reached.
(see example below).


Example:

[bbs ] tail  bb-dftab.DIST
# ANY PARTITIONS NOT EXPLICITLY LISTED HERE WILL
# USE THE VALUES SET BY DFWARN & DFPANIC SET IN
# bbdef.sh. DEFAULTS IN bbdef.sh ARE
# WARNING AT 90% AND PANIC AT 95%
#
# You can also use values > 100 to make it always green

#    If you put a process with no directives then it is
#       test condition is that at least 1 process must be running
#       It keeps backward compatibility

Question:

Is there work around you know for existing BB users ?

As far as I know, this is not possible within BB or Hobbit nor
extension at deadcat (But I have not checked yet). I would be
interested in this feature too!

"fine grain alert" is a better term than "sublevel alert".
I only see one followup.  I am interested to see this feature
to be done.  I am not  much a developer.so I can't help much coding wise.

Can anyone comment  how diffcult is it to get this feature ?

Can this be done by external moudle approach ?

Right now, I don't have whole BB/Hobbit server architecture flowchart
in my head so I am looking for comments that knows.

Thanks for your to comment

Execuse me for  missing a few words in my previous email.
I am sure you can put in the right words when you read through
the sentences.
