Nagiosgraph question...

[Guy Waugh]

Hi,

I'm running nagios 1.2 with nagiosgraph 0.3, but with the latest CVS 
versions of show.cgi (v1.11) and insert.pl (v1.9) from sourceforge. 
Anyway...

When you say you have to manually manipulate the URL, do you mean in 
your web browser (on the loaded 'notes' page), or in the 
serviceextinfo.cfg file?

The default way to get a graph with nagiosgraph seems to be to append 
'?host=$HOSTNAME$&service=$SERVICEDESC$' on the end of the 'notes_url' 
entry in the serviceextinfo definition. This will graph every data 
element saved in the RRD file for the service - for example, if you are 
graphing load average and your nagiosgraph map file saves the 1min, 5min 
and 15min load average in the RRD file, nagiosgraph will show all three 
data elements in the graph. By using the '&db=' feature of nagiosgraph, 
you can choose to graph only some elements from the RRD file, or you can 
create multiple graphs from the one RRD file. Also, by using the 
'&rrdopts=' feature of nagiosgraph (introduced in version 1.9 of 
show.cgi, I believe), you can have some control over how the graph will 
look.

The nagiosgraph 'Help' forum on sourceforge is here:

Guy.
