| I'm not sure why you wouldn't be seeing anything. The monitors running on subdevices 5 and 6 (your interfaces) look to be working perfectly. What do you see when you view the device (Device Tree -> orange graph icon beside your device name)? Do you see blank graphs or no graphs at all? |

I am only seeing blank graphs.
http://www.mercywireline.com/derek/graph.jpg is an example of what I'm seeing.
For the device in the jpg there is data cached:
Interfaces - Bytes In Value 1.55585 G
Rate of Change 421.86
Time Stamp 2003-10-21 23:33:34
Interfaces - Bytes Out Value 102.6996 M
Rate of Change 129.14
Time Stamp 2003-10-21 23:33:34
I also just noticed that not everything that should have data is getting it collected. Here's another URL to an image showing the multiple graphs for different things and that not all have data.

Judging from the time stamps it looks like the gatherer isn't running correctly out of cron. Could look at your cron log and/or cron config to make sure it is being run? Also... are you using the same user to run netmrg from cron as you are when running it manually? There could be some permissions issues responsible for the RRDs not being updated.
Thanks for posting the screen captures; they are helpful.
Good luck. |

| Yeah youre right. haha. Right before I checked for new posts I read the mail and it was griping about cron issues. Sorry about the annoyance...and thanks a lot. Also with ping latecy, will that ping an ip on the net or what? I'd like to use it but I'm not sure how it works. |

Excellent! I hope that takes care of things.
The ping latency test pings the IP of the device you add the test to. |

| Cool...Ok with the Ping Latecy test what do I put in for parameters to get it to ping www.swbell.net (151.164.129.2). If that's not where I would put in a command string to ping that IP, where would I? Thanks so much, I really love NetMRG now that it's working. It's the first to actually operate correctly for about four of us using Redhat 9...That's a milestone considering how smart the other three are (I'm the dud in the group :D ) |

The easiest way would be to create a device "www.swbell.net" (even if you're not going to monitor it via SNMP). You could then create a "System" subdevice for it, and add the ping test.
Alternatively, you could edit the ping test, removing the %ip% substitution. You could then use the parameter field (in the monitors) to specify what host you want to ping.
I'm glad things are finally working for you! If you have any suggestions about documentation additions/changes that would have made the process easier, please feel free to let us know! |
