I have a cron job that runs every ten minutes and runs commands that look like this:
/usr/bin/gmetric --name myvar_1 --value $total1 --type int16 --units myunits /usr/bin/gmetric --name myvar_2 --value $total2 --type int16 --units myunits Where $total[1|2] is positive whole number that is changing all the time. I see the values changing on the "Constant Metrics" page, but the graphs for my created metrics either don't appear at all, or come up with a broken image in the browser (just the name not the graph). Seemed like the very first one I created worked but after that... Thanks. --Karl > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Steven > A.
