Grillon / News: Recent posts

In order to run Grillon, php must be compiled with snmp support.
Here are the options needed to compile php with snmp support :
--with-snmp=/usr/local/net-snmp --enable-ucd-snmp-compatibility.

Off course the net-snmp library must have been installed in the /usr/local/net-snmp directory before compiling php.

This new version is also the birth of the first Grillon RPM package.
It is now possible to install Grillon by using the simplicity of the RPM package.

The previous bug has been corrected in this release.

Thank you to email me all the bugs you could discover when using this package.

Enjoy the Grillon ;o)

A little bug has been detected in Grillon V1.90.
When an Equipment is removed from a group , the graphs for this equipment remains visible through the display page for this group.
The correction will be available in the next version , available in the next few days.

In this version , we get rid of the 14all cgi scripts and mrtg to generate graphs.
All the graphs are now created on demand, when consulting the display page, by the rrdtool graph function (but today this function is still called by an mrtg script ).
It has as a result a smallest cpu utilization and better graphs, more clear and readable, and with more interesting informations.

2 new graphs are now available to users :
-Global graph : for each group , in the graph intro page, we find this global graph. It provides a global view of the data monitored for this group.
-Specific graph : for each equipment monitored, we are now able to enter a starting date and an ending date to get the graph for this period of time. It's really usefull to study a specific period.... read more
