Total all data sources

[skee]

Hi guys,
i got a problem with the "total all data sources" function.
This is what i got:

RRD/Datasource1:
usr:10 sys:4 wio:7

RRD/Datasource2:
usr:90 sys:5 wio:3

RRD/Datasource3:
usr:20 sys:14 wio:51

now i want to build one graph where the summs of these datasotces are shown as lines. in this example: Line1 at 21, Line2 at 98 and Line3 at 85.
I tried with the "total all data sources" function, but all i got, was one line at 204.

is it possible to do what i want to do?^^

thanks for help

TOTAL ALL DATA SOURCES totals all available data source. You may want to use TOTAL SIMILAR DATA SOURCES NODUPS to total each item seperately
See http://docs.cacti.net/manual:087:6_refe ... ata_source for more help

Hi gandalf,
i tried with TOTAL SIMILAR DATA SOURCES NODUPS, but, all i got
was the sum of similar datasource_items.
Example:
In my case, that would be possible:
RRD/Datasource1(usr)+RRD/Datasource2(usr)+RRD/Datasource3(usr)=120
RRD/Datasource1(sys)+RRD/Datasource2(sys)+RRD/Datasource3(sys)=23

But, this is what i want:
RRD/Datasource1(usr)+RRD/Datasource1(sys)+RRD/Datasource1(wio)=21
RRD/Datasource2(usr)+RRD/Datasource2(sys)+RRD/Datasource2(wio)=98

And, as far as i understood it, the TOTAL SIMILAR DATA SOURCES NODUPS cant do this. Or do i have a error in my logic?

sry, for my bad englisch..

thanks for the help

That's what it's supposed to deliver

But, this is what i want:
RRD/Datasource1(usr)+RRD/Datasource1(sys)+RRD/Datasource1(wio)=21
RRD/Datasource2(usr)+RRD/Datasource2(sys)+RRD/Datasource2(wio)=98

There's no cacti variable for this. You will have to create a CDEF using the DEF names of each data source

Hmm, thats almost impossible.i got 50K Datasources

but, then i have to try another way.

thanks for you time

You may consider using reportit to create numeric/tabular aggregates; this works even with a huge amount of datasources
