Hi, I've spent some time searching through the forums and the user guide, and I'm not sure that what I'm looking for is currently possible - at least, not with ZenOSS 2.1.2.
There are two things I want to do which I haven't been able to figure out: 1. How to produce my own template which generates graphs in /os/ or /hw/ (as opposed to /perf/)? 2. How to produce my own template which generates several graphs for every enumerated item. For instance, the filesystem template only details one datapoint and it drills down from this to generate filesystem capacity graphs for every filesystem on the host - clearly using the SNMP index of the filesystems it has already enumerated through SNMP. I can't see that it uses any special magic to achieve this - does this require more work than just setting up a template? Two templates already exist which do exactly this. The filesystem template which uses the HOST-RESOURCES mib and generates graphs in <SERVER>/os/<FILESYSTEM> and the Windows HardDisk template which uses Informat MIB to generate graphs in <SERVER>/hw/<DISK>. The ultimate aim is to use this initially to extend the /hw/ section with a template which uses the UCD-DISKIO-MIB to graph disk IO on Linux hosts. The reason I'm looking for a generic solution is that it's common enough to find some aspect of a system where it might be beneficial to enumerate a number of items and draw graphs based on some aspect of them. -------------------- m2f -------------------- Read this topic online here: http://community.zenoss.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=17195#17195 -------------------- m2f -------------------- _______________________________________________ zenoss-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.zenoss.org/mailman/listinfo/zenoss-users
