Hello Again! I've split up the devices into 6 different "master" configs and everything is working much better now. Thanks to everyone who replied. I have one more question. Do the files get read each interval or is it just the first time? The reason I'm asking is I wondered, by using the master file, if it were possible to just replace the config without stopping and restarting MRTG each time. I noticed I no longer have a lock file for each one.
Thanks! Eric -----Original Message----- From: Cornwell, Eric J.

We currently monitor close to 100 devices with one Windows 2K PC. Each device has its own config file. I have a bat file that runs and starts each config the following way. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- start /B wperl mrtg (RouterName).cfg --logging MRTG_Routers.log echo (RouterName) has been started. sleep 7 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Each device is offset by 7 seconds to help spread everything out. My problem is that with 100 wperl.exe processes running they eat up all the available memory. Is there a better way to start MRTG than this or am I just going to have to live with it? Thanks!
