Just ran across what seems to be a bug I have a Ticket open and will place the TT# at the end of this post.
I have been implementing a lot of Perl Scripts for some Linux monitoring. Today I was building out some Memory Monitoring perl scripts for Linux that are available in the Content Exchange. This script pulls memory information and displays the statistic as kB.
When you use the Components Resource graph and assign the component to the resource it displays all the monitors and statistic values it converts. It looks as though the decimal placement math is off.
For one of my monitors I pull the statistic of..
16436064 kB which should convert to..
16050.8 MB since the component resource converts to MB or
15.6747 GB..
Issue is that the actual conversion shows up as...
16.05 M... This is way off and confusing to my groups who can't convert kB to MB in their head..
I can fix this using a custom conversion, but when it displays on the Component Resource when I do it loses the marking showing if the value is kB or MB or GB plus I don't want to hand convert 11 component monitors on 10+ servers, nor do I want to modify the master template and re-assign it to get this done in one stop. Plus this won't help my systems group not knowing what the conversion is to since it's no longer displayed when you use custom conversion formulas.
My TT# I have opened is.. #383446
