THOLD: Thresholding a counter

Post by geertn444 »

Hi all,

I just installed THOLD (using the pligin architecture). It works fine.
However, i have trouble thresholding a counter.

Example:

I have a counter which increases +/- with 20 in a 5-min interval.
So, the values in the RRD are: +/- 20/300 = 0.0666
So very small values.
My graphs are defined with the standard CDEF "Make per 5-minutes", so the graphs look decent.

BUT now it seems that i cant threshold this:
1) threshold of 20 does not work (since RRD values are much smaller)
2) threshold of 0.0666 also doesnt work since it seems that the module cannot accept numbers with a decimal point.......

Any ideas ??

I solved my own problem :-)

I modified the script to not return the exact number, but
the exact number * 300

Now i can use threshold.
The disadvantage is that my script becomes "step"-dependent.....
