[smokeping-users] graphing

[Ron E. Jager]

i have troubles with graphing on two of my 40+ monitored devices.  i can
ping these devices from the smokeping machine with no problems.  graphing
just doesn't show up on the web server.  i've recently upgraded to rh9 and
all the latest packages.

the trick is to make your alert pattern match the start of the
event eg:

loss < 1%, loss > 10%

this will only match when the loss begins ...

this is the very cool featuere of smokeping ... alert patterns ...
