[Check_mk (english)] Host UP/Down Email Ping Graph - Where does it come from?

Hey Gang,

I really like the simple graph that is generated for host UP/Down events (see attached)--just basic round-trip and packet loss info . Firstly, what is generating this? When I go to the services of the device, I find no specific check, per se, that shows me this data. I only see it through emails when there is a problem. Secondly, how can I set this up and monitor it for other hosts. As you can see from this specific example picture, there is indeed something going on here. The question is, is whether the problem is the network or the UPS device being monitored. I want to monitor another device on the segment to have some comparative data. Looking at the RTT and Packet Loss. Thus my post question.

Thanks!

Hi Matthew,

this graph (or more precise “the data for the graph”) comes from the host check. You can also see it if you navigate to the host detail page in multisite.

Regards,

Marcel

Oh Snap!� That’s exactly what I was looking for.� I did not know
that you could click the hostname. Thanks so much.

  for example if you see a service problem for a host...(Service

problems page)

  click on the hostname in the Host column.

  that takes you to the 'Services of Host <hostname>' page.

  now, click on the hostname at the top of the services list (just

above the State column title).

  that takes you to the 'Status of Host <hostname>' page.

  You can click on the graph icon (hover over to see the thumbnail)

to get

  to the Ping times for <host> graph...



  Since it's a GUI, there are probably a dozen other ways to get to

the same graph…but that’s

  the one I use if I see a problem. (You can use the Quicksearch box

to find a host as well)
