aggregate....averaging???

Post by crono771 »

Ok, this may be a stupid question being that aggregate means total but....

I'm using aggregate to graph a number of things ok. I'm using it to graph the CPU stats of a number of servers which is working great however i would really like to see the average results of the servers. So currently say i have 30 servers in the aggregate and the CPU stats are out of 3000% as it adds the totals together. What i would like to see is the percent used out of 100% - so an average of the lot. Hope this makes sense

Thanks

Yep, it does. You need "normalization". To do so, you might use "COUNT_*_DS_*DUPS" pseudo-variables to create your CDEF. See http://docs.cacti.net/manual:087:6_refe ... cdef#cdefs
