[mrtg] Re: ping

[Brander, Eric]

I think you need
Options[datapro_ping]: Gauge

So that it doen't try to calculate the difference between the readings, but
just graphs the reading it gets.

I have the following script to get output from a ping, and yes I have
heard of ping_probe

#!/bin/sh
 ping -c2 -w 1 $1 2> /dev/null >/dev/null
 if [ $? != 0 ]; then
    echo "500"
 else
    echo "0"
 fi
echo "500"

This is my cfg...

Target[datapro_ping]: `/usr/local/mrtg-2/bin/cfg/datapro_ping.sh "IP"`
MaxBytes[datapro_ping]: 1000
Title[datapro_ping]: DataPro Ping's
kilo[datapro_ping]: 1024
PageTop[datapro_ping]: <h1> Ping for DataPro Connection </h1>
YLegend[datapro_ping]: Comms Link Up
XSize[datapro_ping]: 500
YSize[datapro_ping]: 200


datapro_ping.log file...

1034148308 500 500
1034148308 0 0 0 0
1034148008 0 0 0 0
1034148000 0 0 0 0
1034147700 0 0 0 0
1034147400 0 0 2 2
1034147100 0 0 0 0

The problem is that the graph shows nothing on it, can somebody perhaps
point me in the right direction.

Thanks
