I have created a YouTube video that shows how to do this. http://youtu.be/prh9kxSKTsI I've appended the script below so you can read along. Please get back to me if you have further questions.

Address is localhost - Right-click and Set Probe... Choose "Servers Standard", then choose Host Resources. Change parameters to SNMPv2c and the proper community string. (You can also set thresholds in this window.) - Right-click to open the Status Window. This shows a tremendous amount of information about the device being tested. The "Reason" at the bottom shows that several disks are nearly full: that causes the icon to be in "alarm" state (orange). - In the Status Window, the "UCD-SNMP Load Table Information" shows the three load averages: 1, 5, and 15 minutes. - You can create a chart from any blue underlined value: simply click on it. A chart appears with the Load-1 value. - Add multiple values to the chart by dragging their blue values into the chart. - Adjust the chart parameters to fit the data. (Load averages rarely get above 4, so decrease the Upper bound from 100 to 4; change the dividers to 5 to give nice divisions of the Y axis). - The chart continually fills with newly-acquired data from the device. ____________________________________________________________________ List archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/intermapper-talk%40list.dartware.com/ To unsubscribe: send email to: [email protected]
