Hello,
I am trying to wrap my head around changing a format string for bandwidth into a something like "Out: 200 Kbps" for links on network maps. How can I configure this?
Thank you,
Austin
Hi!
You have to define it like "Out: %s Kbps". %s will be replaced by DCI value. You can use any format specifiers allowed for Java's String.format (http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/util/Formatter.html#syntax (http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/util/Formatter.html#syntax)).
Best regards,
Victor
Thank you Victor, that's what I was looking for. Now that I get data showing "201136 bits/s" how can I turn that into "201 Kbps"? Is that still done with Format String Syntax?
No, you should use transformation script to convert bits into Kbits.
Best regards,
Victor
Thanks for the help Victor. I love this product!
This thread is first hit on google for "netxms format string" and I was interested in this also. Further digging reveals this:
https://track.radensolutions.com/issue/NX-501
where Victor K advises to use format string %*d and it works as expected - values collected as "... traffic (bits) Delta value" are displayed as k/m/g as appropriate
Yes, %* formatter was added much layter then original topic was discussed. Now it is better to collect value as is and use formatters to display in K/M/G.
Best regards,
Victor
