[mrtg] Re: please, monitoring win2k, i need help!

[PAUL WILLIAMSON]

Good point, Steve.  Misreading is killing me.

Add the option perminute and multiply the result you get by 60 and 
you'll have close to the actual data.  Like Steve says, MRTG does 
rates of change between times, not actual values over a given 
period of time.

Marcio,

I'm guessing the number you're getting from the OID is fairly 
small.  Remember that MRTG averages the value over a 5 minute period so it divides by 300.

Check out:
http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/mrtg/reference.html#item_perminute 
http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/mrtg/reference.html#item_perhour 
These will adjust the values and probably give you some meaningful numbers.

Good luck!
Steve
