RRD History graphs do not show up correctly in Monitor one version FP1.89.343 RC1.
Monitor one version FP1.89.343 RC1 uses a newer version of the RRD logging and graphing tool RRDTool.exe. This version produces PNG formatted graphs. Older versions produced GIF files. The PNG files are stored on disk and can be viewed in a browser. (Select the History tab on the Monitor one control panel, expand the device from which you want to see history information, right-click the History Shooter and choose RRDTool|Show default quick view graph).
Microsoft IE seems to have a problem with reading PNG files from disk when accessed via the GUI interface. When accessed through the Monitor one web interface the history graphs are shown correctly.
A possible workaround is installing the Mozilla Firefox web browser and make it the default browser for the system that runs Monitor one.
FineConnection is pleased to announce the availability of the new stable Monitor one version FP1.106.391 (February 2008).
For superior trending and long-term analysis, Monitor one can act as a "front end" for RRD. RRD is a system to store and display time-series data. The RRD can also perfectly be used for exporting logged trending data to text files for use in spreadsheets or databases.
If you're using HP/Compaq servers with Insight manager agents in your network,
Monitor one provides an interface to messaging gateway systems, making it easy to send alert messages to pagers, mobile phones, PIMs and wireless devices.
The Monitor one "Desktop" option allows you to save Monitor one desktop configurations to the database for quick access later.
The new version also comes with a new licensing policy. The required license type is now only determined by the number of device objects on the network map from which you want to monitor uptime. The number of concurrently running Shooters (SNMP monitors) is now "unlimited" in all versions (was dependent of the license type!)
The new version allows you to define the font name, size and color for object labels on the network map.
