Though, the other DS's should also show up. That looks like a display and also maybe an rpn bug. Percentage should be fine.

As I stated before .. it has to do with the way the memory data sources work.

Here is with Precentage:

How about the Dara template for this graph? You may have found a bug.

I do not think it is a bug, it looks like thold is not able to pull from more then 1 data source. Look at the third post:
cigamit wrote:Nope, Thold can currently only be aware of items in the same data source. I eventually plan a complete rewrite of the plugin though, and that is one of the items on the hot list to add in.
The memory graphs use 4 different data sources. That is why I was asking if anybody can create a indexed data source that gets them all.

Well, I think he may have meant single rrdfile. Otherwise percentage and rpn would not make sense. That's why I asked for a screen shot of the data template. If you design your data template with all the required data sources, it works now. But it SHOULD work despite the number of rrdfiles.

That is the issue, I do not know how to create data templates. I tried, but I am completely lost.

Not sure exactly what screen shot you are looking for, hopefully these will tell you what you need to know.

I am actively monitoring RAM from Windows servers using THold/Monitor on Linux. I'm just using the standard graphs and then created a Threshold template based on a percentage free.
