No stable release available yet.
Experimental releases
Upcoming and alpha/beta/candidate releases
- Alpha releases should only be used for testing and development.
- Beta releases and Release Candidates are normally released for production testing, but should not be used on mission-critical sites.
- Always install on a separate test server first, and make sure you have proper backups before installing.
Project Description
- Project resources
ReleasesThis project is composed of 3 parts:
- A graphical interface developped entirely in Gambas language
- A Scheduler in Unix scripts to update the various data bases rrdtools created
- A complet Web Site with authentication login to see the various graphics create
The Graphical Interface made in Gambas Basic language:
- Round Robin Data bases (rrdcreate) creation manually or from models.
- Graphical pictures (rrdgraph) creation with practically all the possible parameters, manually or from models obviously, and with a direct visualization of the finally picture. All the result of the various choices are stored in a unix script file to be independent after creation.
- The Scheduler configuration file can be entirely managed, modified and published by the Graphical Interface.
- To see all the graphics created (rrdgraph), I have made a complete Web site that the user can manage and modify the configuration by the Graphical Interface. (It's possible to manage as much site than one wants and store these on files).
- The last part of the Graphical Interface is a Wizard to contribute simply to the creation of the Robin Round Data Bases and Graphics (rrdgraph) from models created front. all the data associated come from an interrogation with SNMP MIB from the equipment which one wishes to analyze. It's possible to build various file models for each equipment exist because all the in SNMP MIB change for each equipment.
The Scheduler made in Bash unix shell
- The Scheduler written in Bash unix shell with a simply configuration file to feed the data bases from requests SNMP or Unix scripts. A lot a 500 SNMP requests can be assumed in approximately one minute but this is just a first test.
- A log file exist with the Scheduler and can help to follow all the requests and be sure that they are correctly executed. All the error messages (from rrdupdate) are displayed in the log file to understand which problem appears.
The Web site to see RRDTool Graphics:
- The configuration file can be managed, modified entirely by the Graphical Interface or manually.
Each Web site is protected by login and password of curse.
