Are you trying to show that the smokeping process is running as UID 106, and ps is unable to map that UID to a username? Or some other reason the apache processes show a username and the smokeping process doesn't? ------------------------------ Message: 2 Date: Wed, 10 Jul 2013 10:26:19 +0530 From: Dharmapriya Thusitha <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [smokeping-users] (no subject) To: [email protected] Message-ID: <CAJh6EL7+AEfzpdBqrdK06w0uHyykMB1S21uUysBYhk5b=am...@mail.gmail.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" hi , is there any way to get smokeping alert data through API.(when an alert occurred, get that alert through API ). thanks thusitha On Mon, Jul 8, 2013 at 2:30 PM, Dharmapriya Thusitha <[email protected]>wrote: > > > hi, > In smokeping ,it uses ++/[-_0-9a-zA-Z]+/ types of device names.so i cant > add ip address as the device name .it gives an error."

However, with a bit of work, you can have Smokeping trigger an external API when an alert is triggered/raised/cleared. From the docs:* to* /(mandatory setting)/ //Either an email address to send alerts to, or the name of a program to execute when an alert matches. To call a program, the first character of the *to* value must be a pipe symbol "|". The program will the be called whenever an alert matches, using the following 5 arguments (except if *edgetrigger* is 'yes'; see below): *name-of-alert*, *target*, *loss-pattern*, *rtt-pattern*, *hostname*. You can also provide a comma separated list of addresses and programs. - Peter On 7/10/2013 12:56 AM, Dharmapriya Thusitha wrote: > hi , > is there any way to get smokeping alert data through API.(when an > alert occurred, get that alert through API ). > thanks > thusitha > > > On Mon, Jul 8, 2013 at 2:30 PM, Dharmapriya Thusitha > <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: > > > > hi, > In smokeping ,it uses ++/[-_0-9a-zA-Z]+/ types of device names.so > i cant add ip address as the device name .it gives an error." > ERROR: /etc/smokeping/devices/xx.xx.xx.xx, line 1: unknown section > '"xx.xx.xx.xx. and i have 5000 agents to monitor. because of this > problem ,it is very hard to change the names of those devices.give > me an solution > > _______________________________________________ > smokeping-users mailing list > [email protected] > <mailto:[email protected]> > https://lists.oetiker.ch/cgi-bin/listinfo/smokeping-users > > > > > _______________________________________________ > smokeping-users mailing list > [email protected] > https://lists.oetiker.ch/cgi-bin/listinfo/smokeping-users -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

The problem is I don't want to have to do this for every RRD file that is created. Do you happen to have the link to the messages for mod'ing the startup script?
