Is your custom graph in a template you created? You'll need to create a ZenPack out of this template. You can read how to do that, here: http://www.zenoss.com/community/docs/zenoss-guide/2.2.4/ch26s01.html#CreateZenpack Do you have COMMAND data sources that gather data from custom scripts? If so, backup the scripts you use. Do you care about the data for that custom graph? If so, save the corresponding RRD's for your datapoints in $ZENHOME/perf/Devices/<device> Install 2.2.4, install the ZenPack you created and bind the template to the devices you want the graph associated with. Here's how to install a ZenPack. http://www.zenoss.com/community/docs/zenoss-guide/2.2.4/ch26s01.html#IntallZenpacks If you want to see old data for devices, copy your backed up RRD's to $ZENHOME/perf/Devices/<device> -------------------- m2f -------------------- Read this topic online here: http://forums.zenoss.com/viewtopic.php?p=25695#25695 -------------------- m2f -------------------- _______________________________________________ zenoss-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.zenoss.org/mailman/listinfo/zenoss-users
