[Perfparse-users] Deleting Metrics

[Goetz R. <gr...@os...>]

Hi guys:

I am searching for a way to delete metrics from a host, e.g. after
deleting service checks. I am using perfparse 0.106.1.

I have tried to set the deletion policy "View / Edit Binary Data Deletion
Policy" from "<Host Default>" to "<User Defined>" =3D "Always".
Unfortunately after pressing "Update Policy" the configuration returns to
the values before the changes.

Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug in the cgi?

I have worked my way through the data model/foreign keys and sucessfully
deleted a metric. But before putting all the stuff into a Perl script I
would rather know if there is a better/standard way...

Cheers,
Goetz

You have to select "<User Defined>" from the dropdown first, then klick 
in the "Always" Radio-Button, then the update button.
Remember to create a cron script that does the cleanup finally (run 
/usr/local/nagios/bin/perfparse-db-purge from cron hourly or daily).
