monitoring total bandwidth with thold?

Post by temak82 »

We are looking to install thold to alert our techs as well as the respective owner of a server if they are reaching their monthly bandwidth limit.

I assume some of you have used thold for this, how is it working?

To give an example of what we'll need it to do:

New server is added to Cacti. User has 2000GB of transfer allotted to the server per month. For the threshold, we'll set it at 1900GB. So, should the customer's server reach that figure before the month is over our techs will receive an alert email and so will the client with the link to the graph.

So, we'll only be focusing on the Total Bandwidth used in Monthly increments for both Linux and Windows.

I just basically want to know that the above is possible with this plugin and that someone has and is using it for that purpose.

Thanks for your input
