[mrtg] Re: SNMP timeout

[Darryl Kegg]

Jerry,

	Does this only work with RRDTool installed or can I use it with
plain MRTG?  I had a problem similar to Steve's about 3 months ago for my
~500 targets and had to write a small search & replace program, I would love
to use this method going forward as I add more devices.

Thanks,

Darryl

The way I do it is to have every config file start with a line that says:

Include: d:\mrtgcfg\cfg\template\global-options.cfg

Then my global-options.cfg has the global settings I want applied to every
target:

Refresh: 300
RunAsDaemon: No
PathAdd: d:\rrdtool\
LogFormat: rrdtool
IconDir: http://mrtg/
HtmlDir: d:\mrtgdata\images
ImageDir: d:\mrtgdata\images
SnmpOptions: timeout => 1, retries => 2, backoff => 1
NoSpaceChar: ~

To change the snmp timeout for my ~10,000 targets takes one edit...

Of course, this doesn't solve your immediate problem, but you might want to
consider something like this for the future. 

Jerry

 I want to change the SNMP timeout for all my targets (about 2000 in all) is
there a way I can do this with the mrtg script rather than editing every
config file?
