RE: [Perfparse-users] (no subject)

[Sand P. <Phi...@sy...>]

Hi Ben,

I'm currently using the latest perfparse version 0.99.08. Together with N=
agios 2.0a1 on Fedora Core 2.
The deletion policy in the cgi where set to the default values for raw an=
d binary data. Which had been 30days before I changed this just a moment =
ago :)
I thought, that when I use the -n option with the purgetool the deletion =
ploicy is overwritten...
Though after running the purgetool I still had host definitions in there =
which where definitly older than 30 days.
Plus after running the purgetool it said, that it deleted a few million l=
ines, but when I wanted to check my diskspace with df, nothing changed...=


Here's my perfparse.cfg:

# Database Authentication
DB_User =3D                    "nagios"
DB_Name =3D                    "nagios"
DB_Pass =3D                    "XXXXXXXXXXX"
DB_Host =3D                    "127.0.0.1"

# Performance Data Log Files:
Delete_Service_Log =3D         "no"
Service_Log =3D                "/usr/local/nagios/var/serviceperf.log"
Delete_Host_Log =3D            "No"
Host_Log =3D                   "/usr/local/nagios/var/hostperf.log"

# Drop file for lines of log rejected:
Drop_File =3D                  "/tmp/perfparse.drop"

# Nagios file containing its PID (Necessary to delete log files)
Nagios_Lock =3D                "/usr/local/nagios/var/nagios.lock"


# Reporting options:
# Do not display completion status of perfparse:
Be_Silent =3D      "no"

# Display a report on exit of perfparse:
Do_Report =3D      "yes"

# Lock file for only one perfparse running at the same time
Lock_File =3D "/var/lock/perfparse.lock"

# misc
Dummy_Hostname =3D             "dummy"
Accept_Odd_Chars_in_Label =3D  "no"

# Default user permissions in the CGI. Accepted values are (ro|rw|hide)
Default_user_permissions_Policy =3D "rw"
Default_user_permissions_Host_groups =3D "rw"

Regards,
Philipp
