Well I got every thing to work in my own way. Anna I'll email direct if you want exactly what I did, but basicly I turned it in to a server side network type test .
But two general Items, first some products/features produce string that are not unique with in the first 19 charactors; rrdtool DS names can only be 19 long.
Next I decide to track max number of licenses for products/features.
Some of our 30 products
are hitting the max on a regular basis! I thought about a "limits
feature (90% yellow ,95+ red) but
could not figure a way to do this for 30 products and many more feature.
By changing the awk printf
from:
$AWK '{printf "%.19s : %d \n", $3, $11 }'
to:
$AWK '{printf "M%.19s : %d \n "%.19s : %d \n", $3, $6, $3, $11 }'
(I think that typed right).
So I get something like : MMATHLAB : 122 MATHLAB : 99 MSIMULINK : 5 SIMULINK : 1 . . .
NOTE!!!! if you do this I fairly sure your going to have to wipe out the current flexlm.rrd first.
I found the rrd-status.log a great help in debuging.
