How may I add a description to the graph ???

Post by saulofonseca »

Hello all,

How may I add a description to the graph ??? I tried to insert a |query_ifDescr|, but it did not worked.

I would like to insert the description of the interface name.

Check the XML file for the Data Query just to be certain.

Hello again,

I created this template using (Get snmp data). There is no xml file.
Are u saying that I must change to (get snmp data indexed) instead ??

If you want to use "query_blah" it has to be an indexed data collection method. If you simply wrote a script and the index was an input parameter, you can use: |input_parametername| instead.
