[mrtg] Re: operations on OIDs

[Richard Bragg]

In maths multiplication/division has priority over addition/subtraction.

What you are doing is

a+(b/c)  the parenthesis are implied.  You want to explicitly do
(a+b)/c as you rightly guessed.

Subject: [mrtg] operations on OIDs



hi,

I'd like to have help ("indeed ?") :
- I'd like to graph the % of an interface's load, ie. the sum of the
ifInOctets & the ifOutOctets, divided by the maximum throughput
- I suceeded in summing the ifInOctets & the ifOutOctets, writing smthg like
:
Target[link_load]:
.1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.10.1&.1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.10.1:com at a.b.c.d +
.1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.16.1&.1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.16.1:com at a.b.c.d
- I divided this by 2.000.000 (maximum througput), so writing :
Target[link_load]:
.1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.10.1&.1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.10.1:com at a.b.c.d +
.1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.16.1&.1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.16.1:com at a.b.c.d / 2000000, 
and now all = zero.

should I add parenthesis before division ?
is there a more simple way to do it ?
I looked at the faq.mrtg.org, but there's nothing for 'mathematical',
neither 'operations'...

regards
