yes, that's possible. For example: to monitor the CPU utilization
with mrtg I use a script, which is converting the output of "uptime" to
input for mrtg.
The script is very simple:
# > cat uptime2mrtg.pl
#!/usr/local/bin/perl
while (<STDIN>)
{
if (/^.*up\s+(.+),\s+\d+\suser.*load
averages?:[\s\t]+([\d\.]+),[\s\t]+(
[\d\.]+),[\s\t]+[\d\.]+/)
{
printf("%d\n", $2 * 100);
printf("%d\n", $3 * 100);
print "$1\n";
}
}
Now, you must use these output as input in mrtg.
in the mrtg.conf use the following line:
Target[hostname]: `uptime | uptime2mrtg.pl`
It works fine and you can monitor a lot of counters with these
method.
