I know that a P166 isn't a powerful machine, it was more of a joke, though apparently not much of one. I might be able to get a better machine if the project get's approved. As it stands the CPU is pegged at 100% during the render. Given that it can render the map with the default question mark icon in a few seconds I find it strange that it can't do the same with non default icons. I take it no caching of previsouly used images is done. I have now tried to use templates instead of specifying the icon for each host. Unfortunately this doesn't appear to help. I have tried using gd2 icons for the statusmap to reduce the overhead; when I try this however I just get question marks instead of the proper icons. I believe that I may be having problems with the icons I created using png2gd2. I have tried using the two following commands to create them: pngtogd2 cisco-database.png cisco-database.gd2 64 1 and also pngtogd cisco-database.png cisco-database.gd2 I have two versions of libgd installed on the system: /usr/lib/libgd.so /usr/lib/libgd.so.1 /usr/lib/libgd.so.1.8.4 /usr/lib/libgd.so.2 /usr/lib/libgd.so.2.0.1 I'm not sure which is being used by the statusmap.cgi or the pngtogd2. pngtogd2 is from the debian package libgd-tools Does anyone have any suggestions? -JohnF -----Original Message----- From: Fred Albrecht [<A HREF="mailto:Fred.Albrecht@za.tiscali.com">mailto:Fred.Albrecht@za.tiscali.com</A>] Sent: Friday, March 28, 2003 1:14 AM To: John Marrett Subject: RE: [Nagios-users] statusmap.cgi takes more than 60 seconds to render Hi John What you can do is have a look at how busy your cpu gets when the statusmap cgi is running. You'll probably find that you cpu is maxed out at 100%, it can only work so hard. ;( And, with all due respect, a P166 is NOT a powerfull machine. For comfort sake I'd say get yourself a P4 (if you prefer to stay with PC's) and think of it as an investement in your network, IMHO. best regards :) fred -----Original Message----- From: John Marrett [<A HREF="mailto:jmarrett@mediagrif.com">mailto:jmarrett@mediagrif.com</A>] Sent: 28 March 2003 12:13 AM To: 'nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net' Subject: [Nagios-users] statusmap.cgi takes more than 60 seconds to render I am in the process of configuring Nagios for the first time. I am running the latest version (1.0) on a powerful Pentium 166. I have configured some parts of my network totaling about 80 hosts. I am now attempting to change the icons for the systems in the status map. I have created a xedtemplate_config_file and put records similar to the following for all my systems. define hostextinfo { host_name swrtant1 icon_image cisco-switch.png statusmap_image cisco-switch.png } It now takes more than 60 seconds to generate the statusmap. I tried gd2 files created using the following command: pngtogd2 cisco-switch.png cisco-switch.gd2 64 1 and they show up as question marks. I believe I may be having some gd2 image compatability problems. Does anyone have suggestions on how to improve the time it takes to draw the statusmap? If a hardware upgrade is required what type of machine will I need to monitor my entire network (~200 systems, approximately 10 different types with corresponding images).
