New Checkmk user here and we are doing a POC with the 2.5b4 release.
I am trying to figure out how to create a view or dashboard that shows the top N interfaces for sent/received bits across a fleet of network switches in a folder or location.
Example, in Datacenter 1, we have 30 TOR switches, I want to create a dashboard or view that shows the Top 20 Interfaces across all switches for in/out bits.
Pulling my hair out trying to figure this out, any guidance would be appreciated.
Top X dashlet is an element for paid edition. According to your profile you’re doing it ‘raw’.
In the past I made a post to do it in raw on 2.1 for top cpu utilization:
Context / Search Filters: the actual thing you want list for.
Instead of Service: CPU Utilization in linked post do something like Interf* to get all the interfaces.
Sorting column: interfaces have multiple performance data values, so it is either the sent or received bits that get sorted first.
Probably you want something like: Services: Service performance data - value number 2 ; Descending Services: Service performance data - value number 3 ; Descending
Or you make separate views for sent and received.
Edit:
Oh, and the other post was about get Host alias mentioned in Top X dashlet, so you can change that to Host name instead. (-;
