-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello, I was wondering if there was a way of making MRTG more efficient and/or faster. The box we are running on is constantly getting socked because of MRTG. Here are some details:
Box is a dual Pentium 2 450 with 448MB of RAM. Running Freebsd 4.10 with SMP compiled into kernel. I have 26 cron jobs spread out for various MRTG processes: 5 on 0,5,10,15 etc 5 on 1,6,11,16 etc 5 on 2,7 5 on 3,8 6 on 4,9 We are monitoring: 21 Routers and Machines Around 230 Total Interfaces on Various Routers for speed Around 218 Total Interfaces on Various CMTS's for Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) Monitoring about 10 different machines for Interfaces, CPU usage, and Open TCP connections. Monitoring 3 Netscreen ISG 2000's (2 interfaces on each, as well as the number of attacks) Right now, at 30 seconds into a minute (eg, 9:23:30) the load is 1.52, 1.32, 1.25 I have yet to see the load on the box go under 1. There are some processes that take almost 40 seconds to complete. This is because it is trying to fight for cpu, while drawing graphs for around 80 interfaces (on some configs). I was wondering if there was a way to bring the load down on the box, or make it draw the graphs faster. I would like to add more devices to the machine, but I dont want to totally bring the box down to its knees. As of right now, getting a faster box is out of the question, so I need to work with what I have. Thanks in advance. - -- John Barbieri -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (MingW32) iD8DBQFCjebMx7o94pVOxM4RApx+AJ4v43aQfUgLWA0OTi6lRIuKbSjQSgCdF7O3 QNcBfYoQgk428UDsSa11CQE= =KPYs -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archive http://lists.ee.ethz.ch/mrtg FAQ http://faq.mrtg.org Homepage http://www.mrtg.org WebAdmin http://lists.ee.ethz.ch/lsg2.cgi
