SPLITNCV remains derive instead of GAUGE

["Van Liefde Jonathan" <Jonathan.VanLiefde (at) be.fujitsu.com>]

Guys,

 

I'm having a problem with a graph for a custom test of mine. 

The test sends different performance numbers for hard disks of windows servers. The output looks like this:

 

 

Average disk que length per (physical) disk: 

 

Local Disk 0 : 0.120800 

 

Local Disk 1 : 0.010100

 

 

Since this test is used for different server types, the number of hard disk is different for every server.

Because of this I use SPLITNCV to generate multiple RRD's for every disk. 

Then I create the graphs using the FNPATTERN stuff.

 

The RRD's collect the data without a problem. The only problem I'm having is that I cannot tell SPLITNCV that my test uses a GAUGE value instead of DERIVE.

I tried placing:

 

SPLITNCV_dskperf="LocalDisk*:GAUGE"

SPLITNCV_dskperf="LocalDisk0:GAUGE,LocalDisk1:GAUGE"

SPLITNCV_dskperf="*:GAUGE"

SPLITNCV_dskperf="GAUGE"

NCV_dskperf="LocalDisk*:GAUGE"

NCV_dskperf="LocalDisk0:GAUGE,LocalDisk1:GAUGE"

NCV_dskperf="*:GAUGE"

NCV_dskperf="GAUGE"

 

But no success, rrd tool keeps saying that the dataset is DERIVE.

I'm sure I'm missing something obvious, Please help...

 

Thanks in advance,
