[mrtg] Problems interpreting decimal "gauge" info (systemload)

[Bernard van de Koppel]

Hi,

I have a problem getting the data for my system load, gathered from the
local ucd-snmpd (on linux) graphed through mrgt (version 2.9.10 on RH
Linux 7).

What happens is, that the snmp query will respond with a decimal vallue,
but mrtg is not putting it into the statistics log file (only the first
line is updated).

Is it possible to poll decimal values through mrtg??? I did not find
anything about it in the manuals, but found no example also???

Any help appreciated.

Bernard

The first few lines from the "system-load.log" file.

983372281 1.52 1.75
983372281 0 0 0 0
983371506 0 0 0 0
983371500 0 0 0 0
983371200 0 0 0 0
983370900 0 0 0 0
983370600 0 0 0 0
983370300 0 0 0 0
983370000 0 0 0 0
983369700 0 0 0 0
983369400 0 0 0 0


The setup I use to poll this value:

# 1 min en 5 min system load
