MRTG WithPeak option

[cwscribner]

Hi all.

Is there a way in Nagios XI to enable the WithPeak MRTG option for a bunch of devices? My client would like to use Nagios to assist in planning future architecture and would to see the 5m peaks as well as the average.

this is actually already enabled by default. The settings are in
/usr/local/nagios/pnp/rra.cfg

Code: Select all

#
# PNP default RRA config
#
# you will get 400kb of data per datasource
#
# 2880 entries with 1 minute step = 48 hours
#
RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:2880
#
# 2880 entries with 5 minute step = 10 days
#
RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:5:2880
#
# 4320 entries with 30 minute step = 90 days
#
RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:30:4320
#
# 5840 entries with 360 minute step = 4 years
#
RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:360:5840

RRA:MAX:0.5:1:2880
RRA:MAX:0.5:5:2880
RRA:MAX:0.5:30:4320
RRA:MAX:0.5:360:5840

RRA:MIN:0.5:1:2880
RRA:MIN:0.5:5:2880
RRA:MIN:0.5:30:4320
RRA:MIN:0.5:360:5840

You must note that there is not "peak" unless you are looking at a time scale long enough that all points aren't already shown. So if you click the graph and choose a longer timescale, you should see the peaks.
