[smokeping-users] RRD Command for generating Smokeping graphs via CLI

Thu Jul 12 08:42:29 CEST 2012

Thanks Ryan/Tobias,
Yes I got there. In fact, in the second thread I listed in my email, there's mention of the use of displaymod=a which displays the graph alone (e.g. http://oss.oetiker.ch/smokeping-demo/?displaymode=a;start=2007-08-15%2015:31;end=now;target=Customers.ITIS.otoro). This is *nearly* what I want. I could use this via CLI with something like wget in a script. The problem is, as far as I can see, there are some things I can't modify. In particular, I'd like to modify the graph title (currently 'Navigator Graph') to be something else (e.g. 'Customer ABC's Link'). Is this possible with some URL paramet?

Note that I'm referring to the title of the png graph itself, not the HTML titles as part of the smokeping interface...

Thanks,

Joe

He's referring to the Navigator Graph option. Go into the CGI, click on a monitored node, then click on the graph itself.  It should take you to a new window and the title of the graph should be "Navigator Graph".  There's parameters that you can set in the URL, and you can see them clearly.

Hi Tobias,
Many thanks for getting back to me on this and for the prompt reply. Would you be able to let me know where/how I can find the graph navigator as I'm unsure as to what you're referring to?

Thanks,

Joe

Unfortunately though it doesn't allow for any modification of the graph itself and I need to modify some minor things such as the graph title.
