Different CPU's Utilization in a single web page

[mtb]

hello all

can any one tell me that the cpu utilization of different machine can be displayed in a single web pag. because i want to monitor the cpu utilization of different machine at the same time.

With weathermap 0.91, you would do something like:

Code: Select all

NODE myserver1
   POSITION 100 300
   TARGET gauge:/path/to/rrdfile/myserver1_cpu.rrd:1min:-
   LABEL {node:this:name} {node:this:bandwidth_in}

and repeat for each machine. You will need to know what the DS name is in your CPU rrd files (check the Data Sources section in Cacti for that).

That will leave you with node labels that look like "myserver1 4.5"

Hello there. I've never been one to piggy back on someone else's thread, but I was wondering if you'd gotten this workin since I am trying to accomplish pretty much the same thing and am so far having no luck. Here is my config:

If anyone could let me know what the heck I'm doing wrong, I would appreciate it.

What are you seeing, or not seeing?

You have a space between gauge: and the rrd filename in your TARGETs, which means that all your values will probably be out by 8x. Other than that, it looks right to me.

Well, the maps get drawn but they don't reflect the current CPU usage. They all stay at 0, even though when I look at the actual graph, it's showing anywhere between 5 and 15 % usage. None of the servers on the map are doign anything. They're just gray.

Thanks

[Diggit2001]

Here's the map.

Thanks again.

[Howie]

OK. So take a look in the cacti.log - I suspect you'll see something about DS names not being correct.

The difference between your map, and the OP's is that yours is Windows servers and their's is Unix Load Average. Chances are you'll need to change the DS name (the '1min') to something else.

Here's an article I wrote a while ago about this type of problem, and how to sort it out.

[Diggit2001]

Ahh, excellent article. That really helps to make sense of whats going on here but I have thus far been unsuccessful with getting this to work. When I check out one of my data sources and turn on debug mode, like your article suggests, I get this:

/usr/bin/rrdtool create \
/var/www/html/rra/exch2k3_cpu_1055.rrd \
--step 300 \
DS:cpu:GAUGE:600:0:100 \
RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:600 \
RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:6:700 \
RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:24:775 \
RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:288:797 \
RRA:MIN:0.5:1:600 \
RRA:MIN:0.5:6:700 \
RRA:MIN:0.5:24:775 \
RRA:MIN:0.5:288:797 \
RRA:MAX:0.5:1:600 \
RRA:MAX:0.5:6:700 \
RRA:MAX:0.5:24:775 \
RRA:MAX:0.5:288:797 \
RRA:LAST:0.5:1:600 \
RRA:LAST:0.5:6:700 \
RRA:LAST:0.5:24:775 \
RRA:LAST:0.5:288:797 \

So, I then change the Target line in my config to this:

TARGET gauge:/var/www/html/rra/exch2k3_cpu_1055.rrd:cpu

and I see this in my logs:

09/10/2007 10:01:58 AM - WEATHERMAP: Poller[0] ReadData: NODE exch2k3_cpu0, target: gauge:/var/www/html/rra/exch2k3_cpu_1055.rrd:cpu on config line 49 was not recognised as a valid TARGET

I'm sure I'm missing something still with the DS, but I haven't figured out what the heck it is. I do appreciate your continued assistance.

-Chris

[Diggit2001]

OK, I think I've got it. I changed the TARGET line to this:

TARGET gauge:/var/www/html/rra/exch2k3_cpu_1055.rrd:cpu:cpu

This seems to have done the trick. Now I'm off to figure out if I can combine the totals of all 4 CPUS on the single server and average them out to a single output.

Thanks again for your help.
-Chris

[Howie]

Yes. If you specify DS names, you must specify two (one for in and one for out). You can just use '-' to mean 'none' though. This is because the same code is used for links and nodes, and a link without in and out doesn't make much sense.

To sum all four into one, just list the 4 targets on one line:

Code: Select all

TARGET gauge:cpu1.rrd:cpu:- gauge:cpu2.rrd:cpu:- gauge:cpu3.rrd:cpu:- gauge:cpu4.rrd:cpu:-

[Diggit2001]

Thanks. yeah, I figured out how to sum them all up but what I really wanted was a way to show the average of all 4 processors together. I couldn't make it work right, so I moved on. I have the individual processors working, and thats what I was really after.

Thanks again.

I'm having a similar problem with 0.941 (but I'm not using Cacti - just stand-alone Weathermap with Cricket):

NODE Router6
LABEL {node:this:name} {node:this:ds1}
OVERLIBGRAPH https://server/statistics/cricket/mini- ... 200;rand=2
TARGET gauge:/data/cricket-data/routers/Router6.gw.psu.edu.rrd:ds0:ds1
POSITION 80 39


My label on the weathermap colors correctly based on the CPU utilization, but labels it "Router6 [Unknown]" so I know it is picking up the right DS (ds1), but not displaying it numerically correct??

That's because it's {node:this:bandwidth_in} - there's a partial list of these variable names in the advanced section of the manual.

[runlikeanantelope]

OK - I've got it now. Thanks.

[runlikeanantelope]

How can I round off the value from the DS so it only displays the whole number, not all the decimal places as in the picture below?
