I even linked the rrd to another name because it had a dash in the middle thinking the parser might not like that. Still nothing. I also then removed the rrd completely, hoping that I would at least get a line in one of the logfiles indicating a missing
rrd. I get NOTHING no matter what I do. What am I doing wrong??? HELP!</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">From analysis.cfg:<br>
<br>
HOST=%^ntp\d<br>
DS ntp ntpstat.rrd:offsetms >10 COLOR=red "TEXT=NTP offset &Vms<br>
higher than &Ums"<br>
DS ntp ntpstat.rrd:offsetms >5 COLOR=yellow "TEXT=NTP offset &Vms<br>
higher than &Ums"<br>
DS ntp ntpstat.rrd:offsetms <-10 COLOR=red "TEXT=NTP offset &Vms<br>
lower than &Lms"<br>
DS ntp ntpstat.rrd:offsetms <-5 COLOR=yellow "TEXT=NTP offset &Vms<br>
lower than &Lms"<br>
<br>
This monitors NTP offset and alerts on exceeding the thresholds and<br>
sends the status to the "ntp" status page. I enabled this only today,<br>
and while it generates alerts on exceeding the threshold, it hasn't<br>
been "bedded in" so there might be faults with how I've used this.<br>
<br>
Note that the doco (man analysis.cfg) shows the correct format but<br>
misses the column in the example.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Does that create a new column called "ntp", or do you already have the "ntp" column and the DS check simply changes its colour??</p>
