Since the mrtg-ping-probe plugin returns percentage loss, all you have to do is 
100-x to get percentage success.

There are two ways to do this!


1.       Target[10.20.30.40.loss]: 100 - `/usr/bin/mrtg-ping-probe -t 42 -p 
loss/loss 10.20.30.40`
This will simply store 100-x (percentage success) in the RRD.  Of course this 
means you lose your history.

2.       Since you are using routers2.cgi, you also have the option to do:
routers2.cgi*Options[10.20.30.40.loss]: reverse
This will allow you to keep your history and continue to store percentage loss, 
but to display MaxBytes-x.  Probably this is the best solution for you.

Note that in both cases, you'll need to change your various labels for the axis 
and legend.  Also, note that routers2 will recognise the mrtg-ping-probe plugin 
and may default to displaying the data as a floating bar, if you're graphing 
min/max RTT data.  If this is unwanted, look at using the 
routers.cgi*GraphStyle[]:normal directive.

I have a config that I use for measuring packet loss that I would like to 
essentially invert and turn into an availability graph.
The config I have displays an outage in RED. I would like the availability 
graph to display in GREEN when pings are successful.
How would I go about this?

Target[10.20.30.40.loss]: `/usr/bin/mrtg-ping-probe -t 42 -p loss/loss 
10.20.30.40`
