Ok, so I'm monitoring about 800 devices via CiscoRTTMonEchoICMP through a Cisco 7200. I tried to add another 200 devices but then Smokeping couldn't finish in 300 seconds and my graphs started developing gaps. I'm already using children probes with different offset (although this does not improve things dramatically) and I have ultra fast SCSI storage.
The only way (IMHO) to be able to add more Smokeping targets is to try and parallelize the disk write operation since everything else in the process already is done in parallel. I have 2 filesystems (different disks) in the server so I could take advantage of that. The only way I can think of going on about that, is to split the config in 2, with "datadir" and " "imgcache" pointing to different filesystems for each config file. This would require a 2nd smokeping daemon. So, has anybody implemented something similar? Any suggestions? _______________________________________________ smokeping-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.oetiker.ch/cgi-bin/listinfo/smokeping-users
