Is it possible to have the data returned by the Nagios check_rrdtraf plugin changed to a format that is suitable for using Nagvis weatrhermap lines ?
This is an excerpt form the Nagvis doco

Code: Select all

The weathermap lines do not require a specific Nagios plugin. Only the provided performance format needs to match one of the cases below:

    Percentage usage: four perfdata sets. While the first two sets provide the percentage usage and the second two sets provide the usage in bytes per sec.
    One example: inUsage=21103.42%;85;98 outUsage=226363.55%;85;98 inBandwidth=105.52MBs outBandwidth=212.22MBs.

    Byte rate usage: needs at least two perfdata sets with the labels "in" and "out" with an empty UOM. It uses the current value and the maximum value to calculate the current percentage usage. The current value should be given as byte rate. The maximum value should provide the network interface bandwidth as bytes per seconds.
    One example: in=7196.50566429;;;0;1250000.0 inucast=11.6273564992;;;; innucast=0.017617206817;;;; indisc=0.0;;;; inerr=0.0;0.01;0.1;; out=4044.9635368;;;0;1250000.0 outucast=12.1734899105;;;; outnucast=0.0;;;; outdisc=0.0;;;; outerr=0.0;0.01;0.1;; outqlen=0;;;;.
Currently only the following perfdata is returned

Code: Select all

in=0Mb/s;50;80 out=0Mb/s;50;80
So what I'm looking for is perfdata that returns the four values (inUsage, outUsage, inBandwidth, outBandwidth) or the existing two values (in & out) also include the maximum value.

It can be pretty easily modified since it's a bash script, but that would need to be either a feature request or custom development for the devs to work on it. We can take either route, just let me know what would work best for you.

Happy to have it added as a feature request. Might have a quick look myself when it's quiet.

Thanks... Fred
