Hello - I am contemplating on how to best track uptime in an RRD. For clarification - uptime in this case is not as reported by uptime(1), but rather a result of a periodic check and the goal is to get a percentage uptime over a period (e.g. 99.97% over past 30 days).
So I'm thinking of setting up a GAUGE with values from 0 to 100, and setting it to 100 every time the check succeeds or 0 every time it fails. Then I should be able to get the average over a period of time which would result in 'percent up' and the new TREND function can give me a moving average of uptime over, say, past 30 days. Am I on the right path here, or am I missing some other more obvious way to track uptime?
