The same is true for 0.8.7b. And the XML above works perfectly. Thanks for the fix, goldburtd!

4. Remove max values in data sources.

While I like most of the changes, my SAN administrator has requested the option for the max values. How do I re-enable this in the graphs?

The SAN is a EMC Clariion MX-80. I guess I should clarify that what I am looking for is the I/O via the HBA for the LUN assigned to the Windows server and not necessarily the I/O of the drives on the SAN itself. Does that make sense?

Is anyone using this template (or any other template) to monitor SAN volumes attached to their DL380's? It's great to see all of the local disks being graphed however, I need to be able to see the I/O of my SAN disks, too. Thanks.

Great thanks. The tab seems to be working.

Where did you reset the value to make the tactical page come up when an auto refresh occurred?

Just as a response to my iframes issue, I noticed that the height option seemed to work in Internet Explorer, but not in my firefox browser.

Thanks,
Mike ...

I don't recall saying that I would do that, but thanks for your input. ;-)

Things I do for for Weathermap or other spare-time projects tends to get prioritised based on how much fun it will be, or how much I need it for my own work, or how much many fewer questions it'll result in in the forums ...

Also, after mike first asked about this I got to thinking that I'll probably try and get a new Links+ out, with the ability to add multiple tabs each with their own page from one plugin. I think I have the necessary stuff to make proper cacti-style tabs on the fly, and the actual plugin ...

Another quick question I have:
In nagios, the updates are every 90 seconds. Did you modify something so the page refresh is on the same screen (like tactical overview for instance) instead of changing to the default nagios home screen when an update occurs?

Thanks.

Hi munozm!
Here is the ...

Yes I did email you about it but suspected you were pretty busy. So, I figured I'd post the question here and see if anyone in the forums had an answer. I didn't expect you to answer but hey, thanks for replying! :D

Anyway, I'll figure something out with either post processing or using the Links ...

So I've been playing with the INFOURL option on the nodes and the links section of my config files and I was wondering if there is a way to pass certain javascript options to the link that pops up such as:

ONCLICK="window.open('http://server.mycompany.com/information/
servername.html','miniwin ...

While not for Nagios I'm doing the same thing with other applications.
I just use an iframe html command to embed the applications in.

Not sure how much that helps...

Actually, Howie (the Links author) sent me some information on using IFRAME's. Nagios has been loading into that tab nicely now ...

Has anyone played around with the Links plugin http://wotsit.thingy.com/haj/cacti/links-plugin.html? Specifically getting Nagios embedded in that tab? Just curious. Thanks.

Good deal. I'll keep an eye on this thread. Thanks for the quick reply and good luck with the graph.

jpimentel,
Were you able to get this graph to show up correctly? And if so, can you please post the final scripts/xml files? Thanks.

Not really... :(

Permissions per hosts only apply to viewing graphs.

I was actually not looking at a per host allow/deny. The idea was to allow the management of any device and create the graphs for those servers. I just added "Update Data sources" and "Update Graphs" to a test user and these ...
