day in the first 3 hours 46 minutes of the new day (2 hours 46 or 4 hours 46 when clocks change in previous
day). As such it is recommended that over night archiving is done of the previous day just after midnight.
The recommended command to run just after midnight is
wget -m http://host:port/cqm/`date
+%F -dyesterday`/z/
as this will create a directory for the server, cqm, date, and z, and then the files.
The use of
z
clears text off the graphs to make them clean.
F.3.1. Full URL format
The full URL format allows several variations. These are mainly to allow sensible directory structures in
overnight archiving.
Table F.5. URL formats
URL
Meaning
/cqm/
All CQM URLs start with this
32-hex-
characters/
Optional authentication string needed for untrusted access. Can be used with trusted access
to test the authentication is right
YYYY-MM-
DD/
Optional date to restrict output. Can also be in the form YYYY/MM/DD, YYYY-MM/DD,
YYYY/MM-DD if preferred. Can also have /HH or -HH on the end to get data for just
one hour, and /HH-HH, or -HH-HH on the end for a specific range of hours. Can end /
HH:MM:SS or -MM:MM:SS for data for one hour from a specific time.
options/
Optional graph colour control options. Useful when extracting a list of images as the all must
have the same options as the list is just graphname.png as a relative link thereby ensuring all
graphs appear in this directory. The options list can include / separators rather & separators
to make apparent subdirectories.
ext/
The file extension can be included on the end of the options, this is used only for making
the index of all graphs for that type (see below)
graphname
Graph name. For XML this can be just * to produce one XML file with all graphs.
.ext
Extension for file type required
?options
Options can alternatively be included as a html form get field list
Where no graph name or ext are provided, i.e. the index page of a directory then an html page is served. An
ext/ can be included after any options to make a list of files of that type. Otherwise the index is an html page
explaining the options.
A blank graph is available by accessing simply
.png
(i.e. no graph name).
An xml list of all graphs is available as
.xml
.
A csv list of graph name and score is available as
.csv
and similarly for txt and tsv.
A special case exists for extracting the xml files for all graphs in one request, using the name
*.xml
.
F.3.2. load handling
The graphs and csv files are generated on the fly, and only one is generated at a time. Connection requests
are queued. As part of the normal web management system, the trusted IPs queue is always processed first
so constant access from untrusted sources will not stop access from trusted sources. If the queue is full the
connection is not accepted. The most load applies when archiving, but tools like wget fetch one linked file at
a time which is ideal.
