The graph generation is all done on the web frontend. Neither gmetric nor gmond know anything about the data ranges. If you want to force specific ranges--which sounds like a good/reasonable thing in this case--you will need to create a new report type for those metrics. This is significantly easier in the 3.1.x branch, as it has a much more modular way of generating graphs. See the web/graph.d/* directory for examples and documentation. For the 3.0.x series, you will need to hack graph.php to do what you want. I'd suggest something like a "filesystem_report" custom graph that automatically sets the % range, and plots the usage for all partitions on a single host. -- Jesse Becker GPG Fingerprint -- BD00 7AA4 4483 AFCC 82D0 2720 0083 0931 9A2B 06A2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ Ganglia-general mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/ganglia-general
