95% Rule

[matboy]

It would be very nice to have a 95% calculation of bandwith in the system. Is this already possible this way or should it be added ?

I am sorry but, what do you mean?

When you are collection all the traffic, you only pick out the highest top and calculate 95% of that.

still not sure wether i understand:

do you mean:
take last x sample, build average, take 95% of that value as result?

I have found the document again.

Will this be a feature in the future ? It would be really nice to have this.

Does nobody know this feature ? It's very nice for hosting-services where a lot of 95% of a line is sold.

[linuxdr]

Yes, I too need this feature. Internap charges for their bandwidth with this. I would like to know how to do this in Zabbix.

Alexei, would you look at this ? If you want I have some very nice code for you that can count the 95% rule with RDD-tool.

This would be a very nice feature !

[matboy]

Is this going to be integrated ? would be very nice ! Seriously!

This would be a very nice feature !

Please email the code to me at [email protected] and I will try to make a patch to support it in Zabbix.

Hi James,

How are things going ? Do you need more info ?

Nope, got enough info, unfotunately, my development machine is still in the shop. Was supposed to be back by now.

PS. This little fiasco with my dev machine has taught me a very valuable lesson. Never, Never buy a system with the extended warrenty.

You can get a lot of code that would be useful for zabbix from cacti.
