I've got this server I'm monitoring

it has 6 GB of RAM but...
The system only gives a value of 4 GB because that's the support limit
but it is able to use more than 4 GB

My mib browser gets a value of 4 gb of ram

Is it possible to do OID memsize + 2000

so it will still graph a value of 6000 to the graph on total memory size???

I don't think so such limit exists? Server is UNIX or NT based? If it is UNIX based then you can write script to get rid of such problem and then plot the graph

Oke but it has 6 gb of RAM

and my mib browser sais 4 gb

is it possible to add up 2000 to the target value in the MRTG confg file

and how can this be accomplished

My MRTG workstation is NT based
It's a windows XP workstation

And the server is also NT based it's Windows Server 2003

I'm using 2 OID
They are non identical
This means 1 meassures the commited mem
1 meassures the total memory

I want the last one to be 2000 higher than the actual value
but the first one is gotta stay the same

Is there a way to use 2 oid's in one graph on a different multiplecation
Factor???????

I found out how i can add mathemetical formula's to my mrtg cfg file

Gotta use a dummy OID
OID0 is a oid that always gives a 0 value

target[ABC]: [OID1]&[OID0]ublic@IPADRESS + [OID0]&[OID2]ublic@IPADRESS + 2000

because mrtg will always take 2 OID to apply the mathemetical formula to
you'll need a dummy OID see it like this

OID1+ OID0 = OID1
OID2+ OID0 = OID2
because i now got 4 OID's to work with i can calculate with the last 2

OID2 + OID0 = OID2 + 2000

b.t.w why is there newbie under my username when i post something
better make that Xpert

LOL okay what name you wanna? Let me know i will set it up for you...
1-100 : all are newbie but it can be modified as per your request and i'm sure you are trying good work ...

b.t.w so finally it is working? MRTG graph can only two values at a time ...

It will only graph 2 line to the graph
but it is just that I used 2 OID's per line
so I can make a mathemetical calculation on a single OID
instead of making the calculation on both OID's

YES it's working
in fact my hole mrtg configuration is working perfectly now

you don't have to change the newbie stuff
I actually don't care much

Thanks for all the help setting up my mrtg configuration

Really appreciate it

I'll check the forum ones in a while to see if i can answer questions for people
