Re: genRtrConfig

You can't do this under cricket currently. I wrote a patch for 1.03 that 
did this, but it doesn't work under 1.05. I am working on updating my 
patch to do this for 1.05 but I have not had a lot of time. There's a 
long weekend coming, though, so hopefully I can get to it then.

Cricket on Aironet 350

Hi,
  Has anyone tried cricket on Airnet 350 series. I have download the cricket
http://cricket.sourceforge.net/contrib/ for airnet but it only for Aironet 340 series doesn't seem to
pick any valuse. Another point is airnet 350 series use snmp v3 will ask for a username. Am not sure how to do
this in cricket. As anyone tried this .. any help or idea would be greatly appreciated.

thank in advance,
Jack K

Re: Cricket on Aironet 350

The AIRNONET pakcage works fine with 340 and 350 AP's ... I used it for some 
time. When we converted to IOS on 350's and the new 1200 APs, I switched to 
genRtrConfig as it has some support for Aironet IOS MIB

Multiple graphs with different datatypes on same page. UPDATED for 1.0.5!

I got my cricket installation upgraded (though I can't seem to get it to 
accept my historical data; it generates new graphs just fine, but when I 
copy the old data in I get blank graphs. I haven't played with it much yet.)

I have recreated my patch for the 1.0.5 release. Here is a summary:

I've created a small patch to grapher.cgi in the 1.0.5
version that will let you create summary graphs; all that needs to
exist is a view for every graph. The patch adds a "targets-views"
value that works exactly like targets-short-desc and
targets-long-desc: a comma separated list of values that maps to each
target.

I hope those who've been looking for the ability to generate summary
pages find this patch helpful.

The summary graph I'm using looks like this:

  --- cut here ---
  # This file exists in its own directory under cricket-config,
  # which I creatively call "overview".

  target --default--
          directory-desc = "Overview of important graphs"
          order = "1000"

  target  overview
          short-desc = "Throughput and Ping Times"
          target-name = "General Overview"

cricket strange behavior when showing octets

Hi all,
 
I'm having a very strange problem with cricket, sometimes when I collect data from
some routers, I see the octets statistics expressed in Giga bits/second... But
the problem is that the routers don't have interfaces at that speed.
 
If I delete all the data and begin from zero, the graphics appears as kilo bits/second, which is the
correct thing.
 
What would be the problem?
 
Thanks in advance,

cricket does not show max statistics

Hi all,
 
Does anyone know why cricket does not show the MAX value for a target, I only
get the Current value and the Average value.
 
I already put in the graph dictionary, "show-max=true"
 
When I started configuring cricket, I could see "max" values, when I was using the tool
"genRtrConfig", to generate the graphics, but suddenly, I cannot longer see the max value.
 
Is any parameter I should be aware of, to fix this?
 
 
Thanks in advance,

RE: Multiple graphs with different datatypes on s ame page. UPDATED for 1.0.5!

Hey thanks a lot,

This should be a feature incorporated into cricket - its so helpful to be
able to view a quick summary on one page.

The navigation of cricket is one of the only problems with it ( and the lack
of summaries of course ) but now I can get my main graphs all on one page.

If cricket-lists had stars to give I'd give you one!!

I didn't have any problems integrating my old data.  Did you install on the
same OS?  I know that RRD's created on Solaris for instance will not work on
linux.  To get round this I had to dump my RRD's to XML files on the solaris
box and restore from the XML to RRD on my linux box.  Maybe that could work
for you.

Oh and by the way, thanks for the patch ;)

RE: Multiple graphs with different datatypes on s ame page. UPDATED for 1.0.5!

I haven't tried this patch, but I will.

What my guys do here is create some TWiki pages of the graphs grouped they way they like them.
The graphs are also hyperlinked to the actual Cricket page.  One way to solve it.....

Brocade SilkWorm switches configuration files

Hi, this is what is needed for monitoring Brocade switches with Cricket.
These switches works as the infrastructure of Storage Area Networks.
I hope that will be useful.
Bye

Re: cricket does not show max statistics

the default cricket will - generate max values - that will show up after it has 2hrs worth of data.

Subject: [cricket-users] cricket does not show max statistics

Hi all,
 
Does anyone know why cricket does not show the MAX value for a target, I only
get the Current value and the Average value.
 
I already put in the graph dictionary, "show-max=true"
 
When I started configuring cricket, I could see "max" values, when I was using the tool
"genRtrConfig", to generate the graphics, but suddenly, I cannot longer see the max value.
 
Is any parameter I should be aware of, to fix this?
 
 
Thanks in advance,
