The uptime plots look very nice. I'm a new user for Orcaware. And I like to take the opportunity to thank Blair for making Orcaware availble. It's a greate tool. I got the impression from reading the mail that Johan is using Orcaware with HPUX. I thought SE Toolkit only works on Solaris. What is the data collection tool Orcaware uses for HPUX?

I'd like to try out that uptime stuff with the day / week / month mod.
Looks nice. I could use in on my HPUX servers. Having trouble finding the
modified pro and/or orcacollator.cfg.in in subversion. Can somebody please
help out a subversion newbie and give me directions?

Thanks,
Johan

Try this in your cfg file.

plot {
title Uptime
source orcallator
data ( ( uptime / 60 ) / 60 ) / 24
line_type area
legend Uptime
y_legend Days
data_min 0
plot_min 0
href 

}

That's cuz I haven't checked the code in yet. It's a simple update 
though. Here is the uptime section in the modified orcallator.cfg (just 
added four lines):

plot {
title %g Uptime
source orcallator
data uptime / 86400
data uptime / ( 86400 * 7 )
data uptime / ( 86400 * 30 )
line_type area
legend Uptime in Days
legend Uptime in Weeks
legend Uptime in Months
y_legend Total Time
data_min 0
plot_min 0
href http://www.orcaware.com/orca/docs/orcallator.html#system_uptime

}

I haven't done anything with the procallator.cfg stuff though. But the 
modification should be almost identical.

A warning though. For folks with lots of archive data, this is going to 
take a while. This will force Orca to read in the uptime data from the 
archives and create/process two new RRD file:

gauge_uptime_per_(_86400_X_30_).rrd
gauge_uptime_per_(_86400_X_7_).rrd

This may take a while depending on how much data you have and how beefy 
your system is.

You may want to use the following entry instead:

plot {
title %g Uptime
source orcallator
data uptime / 86400
line_type area
legend Uptime
y_legend Days
data_min 0
plot_min 0
href http://www.orcaware.com/orca/docs/orcallator.html#system_uptime
}

The main difference is in the uptime calculation. When you upgrade
to the next release of Orca that has this installed by default, you'll
end up reloading all of the data files because the calculation for
uptime in days is expressed differently, since Orca uses the data
calculation name in the RRD files.

Best,
Blair
