Combine sensors from different devices into one device

Votes:

0

Hi all, we have been using PRTG for a few months now. Is it possible to insert sensors from other devices into one device? Let's take a Windows virtual server as an example. I would like to combine the data directly from the server (services, disk usage, etc.) with the virtualization data (used memory, utilization) in one object. Another example is printers: toner levels from the printer and queue from the print server. Check_mk calls this piggyback.

Thank you Greetings Robert Rosell

Hello Robert,

you can use the factory sensor to combine values from multiple different sensors into one. Also have a look here: https://kb.paessler.com/en/topic/583. Is this what you are looking for?
