Hello,

I’m monitoring the remote desktop connections for determine the maximum users but I have noticed that in the month view the maximum decrease, and in year view it decrease a lot more.

Any idea what can I do to always save the maximum values?

Thanks.

Hello,

I'm afraid the issue simply stems from the fact that the monthly and yearly graphs (in fact all graphs except the 'Live Graphs') are sampled graphs (and tables). This can simply not be changed (nor would it be possible to graph all raw real-time collected values into one graph for one year), and so the maximum and minimum values are averaged as well. However, you could consider using the Historic Data Function to put out non-averaged values for one day, once you determined the day which had the maximum with the yearly/monthly graphs.

Best Regards.

I have to solve the same problem! Creating a formular sensor with min/max doesn't work:

#1:Licence-max Max(Channel(2082.0))

...delivers also the maximum average value of the view, not the absolute maximum value in the period.

regards, Ralf

I too am having real problems with this automatic averaging of all my data. I'm only interested in maximums and not averages for many of the metrics I'm monitoring which makes all of the historic data fairly useless afaik. Would I be correct in thinking that historic data is consolidated by re-writing averages to a new database table, discarding the original data? Would it not be possible to allow a change to this consolidation function to specify taking the maximum, minimum, average or percentile calculations instead for a given channel?

Hello,

minimum and maximum values would only make sensor for gauge-sensor types, and then it's simply technically not possible in the moment. And changing this, would require huge revisions on PRTGs code, so most likely this will not be changed in the near future.

Best Regards.
