[mrtg] Re: Setting Alerts by configuring Threshold Checking

[Vaibhav Bawa]

Hi Martin,

Thanks for your response!! 

I'm sending you two portions of my cfg file. The first shows the options
that I've set globally and are applicable to all the
devices-to-be-monitored. The second portion is from a PER TARGET config of a
serial interface for which I want to run a program (in this case simply
'ls') when the incoming traffic deviates from the two extreme thresholds (as
defined by ThreshMinI[_]: 0% and ThreshMaxI[_]: 95% global options)...

As noted in my previous mail it gives the following error with this
configuration:

ERROR: CFG Error in "threshprogi[]", line 75: Threshold program ls cannot be
executed

Can you guide as to where I'm going wrong?

Cheers!!

Vaibhav

Yes many times.

Using Perl scripts, shell scripts and command lines.
Can you paste the exact cfg files ( not if its huge just the
target you want to ThreshHold Check.)
