Are Link Usage Values Unit-agnostic?

Post by Hardy »

Hi, I've got a feeling this is a silly question but-
All my graphs (and maybe my datasources?) display link utilisation in bytes/second. This is in contrast to Weathermap, which likes to display in bits/second or percent. Does weathermap undertake the necessary conversions required to display the correct value or do I need to insert a little maths somewhere to multiply by 8?

Forgive me if this has already been answered, in my defence, I did have a bit of a search around before I posted :oops:

You can figure it out pretty easily by looking at the graph and then the link :-)

Anyway, yes it multiplies by 8.
Weathermap 0.98a is out! & QuickTree 1.0. Superlinks is over there now (and built-in to Cacti 1.x).
Some Other Cacti tweaks, including strip-graphs, icons and snmp/netflow stuff.
(Let me know if you have UK DevOps or Network Ops opportunities, too!)

Thanks a bunch- I had done just that but thought I'd make sure.

Thanks again.
