Is it possible to gauge a numeric value in a custom property?
I have a node custom property that I currently display in a label but would like to display it in a gauge.
Is this possible and if so has anyone done it?
Thanks!
Ok so this one is a bit tricky but it can be done... The first thing you need to do is create a new Universal Device Poller that will return a numeric value. I chose ifNumber (1.3.6.1.2.1.2.1). Assign that to your node but dont store history or add any web display. Next create a new transform and for your formula enter
{ifNuber}+${Nodes.YourPropertyNameHere}-{ifNumber}
Assign that to your node and add it to the node/interface details view as a guage and it should show you your custom property value in a guage.
Bump....
not sure this is what you mean, but i use UnDP for some things with Gauges like this VPN Concentrator's CPU. here's the guage & below is the UnDP.
Thanks ichance but what I was looking for was not using UnDP which uses an OID to get a value. I was looking for a way to use one of the Solarwinds gauges to show numeric data contained in a node custom property.
For instance I have a node custom property which shows calculated bandwidth which is updated every 2 minutes using a SQL job. What I was hoping to be able to do is gauge that value.
