To monitor device/s first select the device/s on the OV map and then execute the mrtg add menu option under Misc This firstly creates the collection file for xnmCollect via perl ovcols ip/s. xnmcollect is then called to -merge the new collection file xnmcollect is then called -event to activate the collection process Next, it creates the config file via perl cfgmakerov for each which also creates any needed new directory under $webdir/XXXrtrZ where XXXrtrZ is the device name. Then it creates the html generation files The file ovmrtgc.csv is updated with the IP address of the device, the SNMP sysName and the IP Hostname. If all this has worked OK, it then creates the 5 minute execution file $cronfile Finally, $webdir/$roothtml is created to display the devices.
