Graphing timetick valus in cacti

[virus84]

Hello

Im trying to graph remaining runtime on a UPS i got the OID and get the following respons from the UPS.

PowerNet-MIB::upsAdvBatteryRunTimeRemaining.0 = Timeticks: (270000) 0:45:00.00

And thats not the normal Gauge value and if i try using it in cacti i only get a value U. Any idés how i can graph this?

Thanks for any help

You need a script to convert it from a time to a number which rrdtool can store.

Any language you want / comfortable. Looks like the OID already has the raw value you need (270000), and just need to access that instead of the converted timetick value...
