Hi, its me again Now i have no questions but one sugestion ... if packet loss reach 100% then ss_fping stops returning purposeful results (it returns AV:U PL:100) - so in graph it looks absolutly same as if poller is turn off ... so i sugest to change this code | Code: | if ($failed_results == $ping_sweeps) {
return "AV:U PL:100";
| to | Code: | if ($failed_results == $ping_sweeps) {
$loss = 100;
return sprintf("loss:%0.4f", $loss);
|
After this little change when packet loss reach 100% then in graph you can see red backround without any ping, so you know that something is really wrong

| Ok, now I added 10 data sources and I'm trying to make the graphs. How do I find out which datasource points to what host? They are all called the same thing and I cna't distinguish between them while making the graphs.

I must be a little confused...I downloaded the template from the original post and my graph looks like the below graph.
Any suggestions?

| The smoke represents the overall jitter. The darker the smoke signifies that most of your ping pkts were in that latency range. The 2 darkest smoke colors are based on the deviation return by the ping test. The deviation is divided by 2 and stacked on top of the green avg line. The next 3 grays are based on the max ping, ie) max - (dev+avg) / 3, and stacked on top of the 2 darkest grays representing deviation. This was the closest approximation to the original smokeping created by Tobi O. Hope this helps.

I'm guessing that these gaps are outages...is that correct? Why would it still show my avg loss is 0.00%?

Posted: Wed Sep 24, 2008 3:10 am Post subject: too short ping deadline |
|
|
| Code: | | /bin/ping -nqc 20 -i .5 -w 5 $host |
A deadline of 5 seconds is much too short.
If you send 20 echo requests in 10 seconds you must wait at least 10 seconds...
Otherwise you don't let the time to send the 20 packets and also often lose packets (in fact cut echo replies).
| Quote: | -w deadline
Specify a timeout, in seconds, before ping exits regardless of how many packets have been sent or received. In this
case ping does not stop after count packet are sent, it waits either for deadline expire or until count probes are
answered or for some error notification from network.
|
I would suggest to set the deadline to something like 12 or 14 seconds to be sure :
| Code: | | /bin/ping -nqc 20 -i .5 -w 14 $host |

| I use smokeping for monitoring branch company, but a lot of our branches to the number of hundreds that smokeping until it is not able to monitor again. I'm confused though what I should be monitoring through smokeping ?
