improvement of Hostgroup-Host-Details-1 MBI report

Hello @demb.mat, 

Thank you for your idea, which will only help us to further improve CENTREON. 

In order for your idea to be taken into account, I invite you to review the format please. This guide will be useful for you.

Let me know if you need help. 

Regards, 

Hello @demb.mat 

We agree that the Current month is far from ideal, especially when looking at a report generated a while ago. We will add this enhancement to our backlog. 

Regarding other items: 

> Second case, if we want to have the “Time before saturation”, we have to keep the “total“ metric of a disk service. But with this metric, we have a useless line in storage space table.

You must exclude this metric from the report configuration, here:

MBI doesn’t need it as it uses the max value in the metric itself. 

> third, the “used space evolution by service category”. For a disk category, I have more than 100%… What does that mean ? My 2 disks for this server are 36% and 10%.

The important word here is evolution, in other word it means that the space used more than doubled compared to the previous period. 

 Thanks for taking time to share your feedback, 

Kind regards,

As a side note, somebody else posted a request about the ‘Current month’ problem. 

I will set your ticket as decline as it doesn’t really about enhancement except the aformentionned point which will be addressed here: 

Thanks

Hello sims24,

ok for the first point.

For the second case I first generate the report excluding the total metric but the ““Time before saturation” was always “-”.

It's the support that inform me that I have to not exclude the total metric in order to obtain a value and tells me to post in “the watch” to ask for an improvement…

For the third point, thanks for the explaination, I understand what it means now.

Best regards,

Hi,

Thanks for the addtionnal details, I’ll circle back with the support. Maybe it’s a quiproquo, what’s important is that the metric does have a max value in its raw formatting, e.g: 

The time before saturation will always be ‘-’ when value in the preceding column is negative: 

Thanks
