Looks like you found a bug in Smokeping. With pings = 5, the smokecol()
subroutine in Smokeping.pm breaks and calculates a wrong color for the
ping deviating most from the median.
Details: in the sub
sub smokecol ($) {
my $count = ( shift )- 2 ;
my $half = int($count/2);
my @items;
for (my $i=$count; $i> $half; $i--){
my $color = int(190/$half * ($i-$half))+50;
push @items, "AREA:cp".($i+2)."#".(sprintf("%02x",$color) x 3);
};
for (my $i=$half; $i >= 0; $i--){
my $color = int(190/$half * ($half - $i))+64;
push @items, "AREA:cp".($i+2)."#".(sprintf("%02x",$color) x 3);
};
return [EMAIL PROTECTED];
}
on the first round of the first for loop: $count = 3, $half = 1, $i = 3
making $color = int(190/1 * (3-1))+50 = 430
As this is >255, it's got more than two digits in hex (1AE).
So the rrdtool graph line gets #1AE1AE1AE as the color. Apparently
it takes just the firs six digits, resulting in RGB value 1A E1 AE,
which seems to match the color you have.
I'll let Tobi figure out the best fix. If you're in a hurry, I'd
suggest changing the pings value to either 4 or 6.
