[mrtg] Re: Problem with indexmaker ! I use MRTG and RRDtool databases - Is it a bug ?

[Peter Glanville]

Indexmaker won't work, as it generates a page of HTML including graphs (and
linking to pages) produced by MRTG in non-RRD mode.
Since you use RRD you're out of luck there.

Option 1. Use 14all*DontShowIndexGraphs
Option 2. Do not point the CGI at the live CFG file, but create a number of
dummy CFG files that the CGI points to, each having a smaller, acceptable
number of graphs in it.
Option 3. Get the manglemant to buy you more processing power
Option 4. In the Unix world, I hear of tools called FastCGI and SpeedyCGI
that help (I'm stuck with Win-doze)

I use MRTG (2.9.17) with RRDtool (1.0.33) and some cgi like
14all-1.1.cgi on a LINUX RED HAT 7.2

I would like to use the indexmaker command because it allow us to access
rapidly to the graphs created with RRDtool. I don't have time to waste.

I have more than 500 targets in my mrtg.cfg file (I could have more than
1000 targets).

So I can't use this command because it's too slow to display all the
graphs on screen
# indexmaker mrtg.cfg --rrdviewer=/cgi-bin/14all-1.1.cgi
--output=/var/www.html/index.html

I thought to use the --show option with the "none" as argument like this
(this could solve my problem) :
#indexmaker mrtg.cfg --rrdviewer=/cgi-bin/14all-1.1.cgi --show=none
--output=/var/www.html/index2.html


But the problem is that the HTML page generated show links for each
target that link to an HTML page instead to execute the 14all-1.1.cgi
for each target ! Is it a bug ? Because with the command before (without
the --show=none option) it works well, each graph created are linked to
the cgi graph associated with the good cgi ! But, unfortunately it is
too slow to display on screen for me because RRDtool need to create more
than 500 graphs !

Does anyone can help me ?

Thanks in advance
