I hope that feature will be implementet soon, as far as perfparse is

you have to reconfigure the groups in perfparse.

Check_load and check_disk both do perf data. Although the check_disk =
stuff is fairly broken.

Ok. Now I got it.

I'm using plugins 1.4a1. I'm getting performance data only to http and =
ftp.
Do you know what plugins return perfdata?

I'm interested getting perfdata from ping, cpu and disk space. Are these
available?

Thanks,

Wilson

[Perfparse-users] Another version, 0.99.04

[Ben C. <be...@cl...>]

Another version, two in the same day!

The main extra in this one is a Gant chart in the raw history report. 
Treat this as a prototype.  Let me know how you would like to see this 
feature developed.

This also has a few fixes to help port onto FreeBSD and the usual 
collection of bug-fixes (thanks for the feedback).

Thanks for all the support over the last few versions.  I feel we are 
really getting somewhere now!

Regards,

Ben Clewett.

[Perfparse-users] Another version, 0.99.05

[Ben C. <Be...@cl...>]

Yet another version!

Our friend Yves found and fixed an important bug.  Versions 0.99.01 to 
0.99.04 suffer a risk of not importing data.  If you have a line of 
performance data PerfParse did not understand, you may have lost the 
rest of the import.  This is now fixed. :)

More important!

A big hole is PP to date:-  The Nagios States (OK, WARNING, CRITICAL, 
UNKNOWN) were not imported.  They are now successfully parsed, stored 
and used on all Raw Reports.  Including the new Gant chart.  Thanks 
again to Yves.

There is a small fix needed.  Please edit nagios.cfg, find the line:

xpdfile_service_perfdata_template=$TIMET$\t$HOSTNAME$\t$SERVICEDESC$\t$OUTPUT$\t$PERFDATA$

And please change to:

xpdfile_service_perfdata_template=$TIMET$\t$HOSTNAME$\t$SERVICEDESC$\t$OUTPUT$\t$PERFDATA$\t$SERVICESTATE$

This is required for this version :)

In more detail:  The state is stored and used.  Older data from before 
this fix will still 'guess' the correct state from the text output of 
the plugin.  Recent data from this version onwards will use true correct 
state.

Thanks for all the feedback, please keep us informed of any problems.

Regards,

Ben

Re: [Perfparse-users] Another version, 0.99.05

[Ben C. <Be...@cl...>]

PP users,

I am sorry to admit that this version too contained bugs.  This is a 
problem of trying to fix bugs whilst developing code, not having enough 
time to test.

This version has been removed.  Please don't use it.  It will only 
import lines of data with performance data, all others will be dropped.

Very sorry about this!

Regards, Ben.

Re: [Perfparse-users] [Perfparse-users]

[Ben C. <Be...@cl...>]

Wilson, Philipp,

It's on our TODO list to inherit the Nagios groups.  Unfortunately it's=20
not as simple as that because:

- The Nagios groups may be defined in MySQL, PostgreSQL or text files.=20
Especially with Nagios 2.0.
- The Nagios groups only include current hosts.  PP shows all hosts=20
there ever were.
- PP might be on a different server, or use a different DBMS, or a=20
different database in the same DBMS. =3D> It might be hard to find the gr=
oups.
- PP might take input from many Nagios servers, all with different and=20
maybe conflicting groups...

Quite a lot of programming to import the groups. :)

I do believe Yves will be working on an import/export program to set the=20
groups from a text file.  This may make it easier to cut/paist from=20
Nagios to PP in the future.

In the mean while, sorry about having to set up groups twice.

Secondly, Philipp is right, PP only shows data it can find.  Therefore=20
the Binary data is likely to miss any hosts or services which do not=20
produce any binary data..

Again, on our long-term TODO we are planning to configure the hosts=20
optionally from a list.  Therefore including missing hosts, and=20
excluding hosts the user does not wish to see. :)

Ben

PS, we are looking for developers.  If there is anybody on this group=20
who wants to have a 'hack' at this, please do :)

[Perfparse-users] New version **important**

[Ben C. <Be...@cl...>]

New version of PP out: 0.99.02.

This has been coded to work with Netscape and other older browsers.

There is also an important bug fix if you are using Solaris.  Thanks to 
much work from Yves.

There was a problem reported on version 0.99.01 where a use lost their 
data when 'perfparse-purge-db' was run.

Can I ask all members with this version to be careful.  Don't run the 
purge and/or check the delete policies against your data carefully.  The 
purge is disabled in 0.99.02.

Regards,

Ben.
