Gauges and Graphs with LOWER Value Alerts

(Not sure if that Subject accurately describes my dilemma...but here goes)

My issue is pretty simple...I do an SNMP check and I want to alert if the returned value drops BELOW a certain value, so...if I am understanding the thresholds correctly:

-w15: -c5:

Will generate a WARNING if the value drops below 15 and go CRITICAL if it drops below 5.

This seems to work, but now the gauges and graphs don't seem to be able to grok those values, so I lose my pretty ORANGE warning zone and the RED critical zone on my gauges and I cannot superimpose the critical and warning values on the graphs.

Is there any way around this? Or am I stuck with the plain graphs?

Thanks,
Emmett

What version of XI are you running? There have been many changes to highcharts as of 5.3.0 and i recall testing these:

5.3.0

- Added options in global settings to customize Highcharts Avg/Max/Last values (or disable them) [TPS#9611] -JO
- Added option in global settings to tell Highcharts graphs to ignore null values when calculating 'Avg' [TPS#9611] -JO
- Added imporved warning/critical lines in Highcharts graphs which can be toggled on and off -LG
- Added Highcharts default display type [TPS#7617] -BH
- Updated all Highcharts graphs with new styling -LG

Hmmm....we are running 5.2.3

I'm guessing I should upgrade. :-)

Thanks!
