Torrus XML Configuration Guide
  Common rules
    The Torrus configuration consists of several XML files. Once the XML
    configuration is changed, it must be compiled into the database by
    executing "torrus compilexml". In addition, when *Renderer*, *Collector*
    and *Monitor* processes notice the configuration changes, they refresh
    their information automatically.

    The top-level XML element is always "<configuration>", with sub-elements
    defining various sections, like datasources or views:

      <configuration>

        <!-- Optional inclusion of other XML files -->
        <include filename="myconfig.xml"/>

        <datasources>
          <!-- Data sources tree definition -->
          ...
        </datasources>
        <views>
          <!-- View definitions -->
          ...
        </views>
        <token-sets>
          <!-- Token sets definitions ->
          ...
        </token-sets>
        <monitors>
          <!-- Monitor definitions ->
          ...
        </monitors>
      </configuration>

    Multiple XML files are interpreted in additive matter, i.e.
    "<datasources>" section from one file is concatenated with the
    corresponding sections of previous files. If the same parameter is
    defined for the same subtree in several input files, the last processed
    value gets into the configuration.

    Additional XML files may be added to the compilation list by means of
    "<include>" statement. They will be processed recursively before the
    content of the XML file they are referenced from. The argument
    "filename" determines the name of the file in standard XML files
    directory. It is safe to include the same file several times, Torrus
    compiler guarantees that files are only processed once.

    Some kinds of sections, like "<datasources>", allow to define the same
    elements two or more times. In this case, the previous parameter values
    are overridden by the new values.

    Each component of the configuration is defined by the set of
    *parameters*. They are specified in a common manner, differentiating in
    parameter names only:

      <view name="default-rrd-html">
        <param name="view-type"     value="html" />
        <param name="expires"       value="300" />
        <param name="html-template" value="default-rrd.html" />
      </view>

    The parameter value can be specified either by "value" XML attribute, or
    by the text contents of the "<param>" element.

    Some parameter values require other parameters to be defined, like in
    the above example: a view of type "html" cannot exist without a
    template.

    After *all* XML files are compiled, the parameters are checked for
    validity by the compiler.

  Character sets
    By default, all XML input is treated as UTF-8 (unicode). This is
    important because all the HTML output generated by Torrus is encoded
    UTF-8.

    However, you may use Latin1 (ISO-8859-1) encoding in your XML files. In
    order to ensure correct displaying of non-ASCII characters, the encoding
    must be specified in your XML files:

      <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>

    You need this only in those files containing non-ASCII characters in
    Latin1 encoding.

    In addition, version "1.54_3" or higher of "XML::LibXML" is required,
    and Torrus version 0.0.16 or above.

  Macros
    In the top level of the configuration tree, a number of macros may be
    defined. Currently they are used in "snmp-object" parameter only. Macros
    are specified with "<def>" elements, being the direct children of
    "<definitions>" element:

      <configuration>
        <definitions>
          <!-- IF-MIB:ifTable  -->
          <def name="ifDescr"           value="1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.2" />
          <def name="ifPhysAddress"     value="1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.6" />
          <def name="ifInOctets"        value="1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.10" />
          <def name="ifInUcastPkts"     value="1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.11" />
          <def name="ifInErrors"        value="1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.14" />
          <def name="ifOutOctets"       value="1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.16" />
          <def name="ifOutUcastPkts"    value="1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.17" />
          <def name="ifOutErrors"       value="1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.20" />

          <!-- Default Interface index lookup -->
          <def name="IFIDX"         value="M($ifDescr, %interface-name%)" />
        </definitions>
        ...

    These definitions are global across all XML configuration files, and are
    referenced with dollar sign and the definition name, e.g.:

        <leaf name="ifInErrors">
          <param name="snmp-object" value="$ifInErrors.$IFIDX" />
          ...

  Parameter properties
    Some parameters require special handling during the compilation or at
    the runtime. The parameter properties define such behaviour in the XML
    configuration.

    Currently two properties are recognized: "remspace" and "expand".

      <configuration>
        <param-properties>
          <!-- Parameters where space is removed from values -->
          <prop param="action"             prop="remspace" value="1"/>
          <prop param="display-rpn-expr"   prop="remspace" value="1"/>
          <prop param="ds-names"           prop="remspace" value="1"/>
          ...
        </param-properties>

  Datasource definitions
    Datasources are organized into a tree hierarchy. All parameters are
    inherited by the subtrees and leafs from their parents, and can be
    overridden on lower levels.

    The datasources tree consists of two key types of components: *subtree*
    and *leaf*. A subtree can have child subtrees or leaves. A leaf can
    never have children. A subtree represents logical aggregation, while the
    leaf always represends the actual datasource.

    In XML configuration, a child subtree or leaf belongs to the parent
    element, like the following:

      <datasources>
        <!-- This is the first child of the tree root -->
        <subtree name="Netflow">
          <param name="ds-type" value="rrd-file" />
          <param name="comment"
                 value="Netfow data collected by FlowScan with CarrierIn.pm" />
          <!-- All Flowscan-generated files reside here -->
          <param name="data-dir" value="/var/local/flowscan/graphs" />
          <subtree name="Exporters">
            <param name="comment" value="Netflow exporting devices" />
            ...
            <!-- all exporters defined here -->
          </subtree>
           ...
          <subtree name="Total">
            <param name="data-file" value="total.rrd" />
            <leaf name="bps">
              <param name="comment" value="Bits per second" />
              <param name="leaf-type" value="rrd-def" />
              <param name="rrd-ds" value="bits" />
              <param name="rrd-cf" value="AVERAGE" />
            </leaf>
            <leaf name="pps">
              <param name="comment" value="Packets per second" />
              <param name="leaf-type" value="rrd-def" />
              <param name="rrd-ds" value="pkts" />
              <param name="rrd-cf" value="AVERAGE" />
            </leaf>
            <leaf name="packlen">
              <param name="comment" value="Average packet length in bytes" />
              <param name="leaf-type" value="rrd-cdef" />
              <param name="rpn-expr" value="{bps},8,/,{pps},/" />
            </leaf>
          </subtree>
        </subtree>
      </datasources>

    Each subtree or a leaf is identified by a *path*, the symbolic notation
    similar to filesystem paths. In any path notation, subtree names always
    end with slash (/), and this trailing slash is the part of the name. In
    this case, any subtree is identified by a path ending with slash, while
    leaf paths always end with a word symbol. The top-level subtree is
    identified by a single slash.

    The other components of the datasouce definition are *templates* and
    *aliases*.

   Templates
    A template is used when it's needed to define multiple different pieces
    of the configuration in the same way. For instance, the definition for
    input/output octets and bits can be specified once in a template, and
    then applied where appropriate.

    The piece of XML configuration inside the "<template>" element is
    memorized under the template name, and reproduced in every occurrence of
    "<apply-template>" with the corresponding template name. The template
    definition must be the direct child element of "<configuration>" XML
    element:

      <datasources>
        <!-- Default views must be defined -->
        <param name="default-subtree-view" value="default-dir-html" />
        <param name="default-leaf-view" value="default-rrd-html" />

        <!-- Many of our RRDs have the field "bits" - let's define it here -->
        <template name="bps">
          <leaf name="bps">
            <param name="comment" value="Bits per second" />
            <param name="leaf-type" value="rrd-def" />
            <param name="rrd-ds" value="bits" />
            <param name="rrd-cf" value="AVERAGE" />
          </leaf>
        </template>
        ...
          <subtree name="Total">
            <param name="data-file" value="total.rrd" />
            <apply-template name="bps" />
            <leaf name="pps">
              <param name="comment" value="Packets per second" />
              <param name="leaf-type" value="rrd-def" />
              <param name="rrd-ds" value="pkts" />
              <param name="rrd-cf" value="AVERAGE" />
            </leaf>
            <leaf name="packlen">
              <param name="comment" value="Average packet length in bytes" />
              <param name="leaf-type" value="rrd-cdef" />
              <param name="rpn-expr" value="bps,8,/,pps,/" />
            </leaf>
          </subtree>

   Aliases
    Alias is the alternative symbolic name for a subtree or a leaf. It can
    be even a name from a different subtree hierarchy. If that alternative
    hierarchy does not exist, the corresponding subtrees are created:

      <subtree name="62.3.44.55">
        <alias>/Netflow/ExportersByName/rtrTelehouse1/</alias>
        ...

   Compile-time variables
    Compile-time variables are those defined somewhere in datasource
    hierarchy, and valid within a given subtree and its children. It is
    possible to define pieces of XML configuration which are or are not
    compiled, depending on the value of corresponding variable.

    Variables are set by "setvar" XML element, with mandatory attributes
    "name" and "value".

    Variable values are used in "iftrue" and "iffalse" XML elements.
    Mandatory parameter "var" specifies the variable name. The child XML
    elements are compiled if the variable value is true or false,
    correspondingly. A true value is "true" or a nonzero number. Undefined
    variable is identified as false.

    Example:

      <template name="cisco-cbqos-classmap-meters">
      ...
        <iftrue var="CiscoIOS_cbQoS::CMNoBufDrop">
          <leaf name="Dropped_No_Buffer">
          ...
          </leaf>
        </iftrue>
      </template>

      <subtree name="QoS_Stats">
        <setvar name="CiscoIOS_cbQoS::CMNoBufDrop" value="true"/>
        ....
      </subtree>

   Parameter value substitution
    For any given leaf, some parameters may reference the other parameter
    values, by embracing the parameter name with percent signs:

       <param name="data-file" value="%snmp-host%_hostaverages.rrd" />

    The parameter substitution is performed at runtime. The substitution
    formula may be defined at a higher subtree level, and the substitution
    itself will occur at leaf level.

    The parameter substitution is performed only to those paraneters which
    are defined with the property "expand".

   Common parameters
    *   "tree-name"

        This parameter is automatically added to the root element of the
        tree and defines the tree name.

    *   "ds-type"

        Mandatory parameter for every datasource leaf. Currently, the
        following values are recongized:

        *       "rrd-file"

                The datasource is an RRD file generated by some external
                collector. Implies mandatory parameters: "data-dir",
                "data-file", "leaf-type".

        *       "collector"

                The datasource is generated by Torrus Collector. Implies
                mandatory parameters: "collector-type", "storage-type",
                "collector-period", "collector-timeoffset".

        *       "rrd-multigraph"

                This leaf is dedicated to displaying of multiple other
                datasources in one graph. It cannot be referenced for any
                other purpose, because there's no numeric value associated
                with it.

    *   "nodeid"

        Optional. If defined, it should contain a unique string identifying
        this particular leaf or subtree.

    *   "node-display-name"

        Optional. If defined, it overrides the subtree or leaf name for
        displaying. The subtree and leaf names are not allowed to have
        spaces and special characters, and this parameter helps to display
        strings as they are, such as router interface names.

    *   "comment"

        Optional. This is a string of text which is displayed when browsing
        through the tree.

    *   "help-text"

        Optional. This parameter is not inherited by child nodes. If
        defined, the user is offered a *Help* shortcut in the given subtree
        or view. It allows to open a new window with the help text
        displayed, together with the current path. Some simple markup is
        allowed in the text, in a format of Template-Toolkit tool:
        "[%em('some text')%]" would be displayed in italics, and
        "[%strong('some text')%]" would be bold.

    *   "monitor"

        Optional. Comma-separated list of monitor names (spaces are allowed)
        that must be run upon periodic runs of monitor module (see *Monitor
        definitions* section of this manual). Monitor schedule parameters
        must be defined for the monitor to run properly: "monitor-period"
        and "monitor-timeoffset".

    *   "monitor-period", "monitor-timeoffset"

        Mandatory parameters for leaves that have "monitor" defined. They
        define the monitor schedule for each individual datasource. The time
        for execution is determined by formula:

           time + period - (time mod period) + timeoffset

    *   "monitor-vars"

        Required if one or more monitors requires the variables. In
        monitor's RPN expressions, the variables are referenced as
        "#varname". These variables are looked up in the leaf's
        "monitor-vars" parameter. The syntax of this parameter is
        semicolon-delimited "name=value" pairs:

          <param name="monitor-vars" value="min=300000;max=1000000"/>

    *   "monitor-action-target"

        Optional. Specifies a reference to an alternative leaf which will be
        used for the monitor action. For example, you might need to see a
        multigraph leaf in the tokenset instead of one single datasource.

    *   "precedence"

        Optional. Default value: 0. When rendering, the subtree listing is
        sorted according to precedence and alphabetic order of names. The
        higher the precedence, the closer to the top of the list the child
        node is displayed.

    *   "legend"

        Optional. If given, produces a short listing at the top of the HTML
        output, with tabulated values. Format: "Category1:Value1;
        Category2:Value2...". Spaces around the delimiters are ignored.

        Example:

          <subtree name="rtrZurich1">
            <param name="legend">
              Location:Zurich;
              Contact: John Smith;
              Telephone: 01 9911299
            </param>

    *   "graph-title"

        A horizontal string at the top of the graph.

    *   "graph-legend"

        Optional. This legend text is printed inside the graph explaining
        the line color.

    *   "vertical-label"

        Optional. Text to print along Y axsis on the graph.

    *   "graph-lower-limit", "graph-upper-limit"

        Optional. Fix the upper and lower boundaries of the graph.

    *   "graph-rigid-boundaries"

        Optional. When set to "yes", the graph will not expand if the value
        is outside the lower or upper limit.

    *   "rrd-scaling-base"

        Optional. Valid values are: "1000" and "1024". Default: "1000".
        Determines the base for kilo-, mega-, and giga- scaling factor.
        Normally it should be 1000 for traffic counters, and 1024 for memory
        or storage sizes.

    *   "graph-logarithmic"

        Optional. When set to "yes", the graph is drawn in logarithmic
        y-axis scale.

    *   "line-style", "line-color"

        These optional parameters override the corresponding ones from the
        view definition.

    *   "default-subtree-view", "default-leaf-view"

        Mandatory. Determine the default view for a leaf or subtree,
        correspondingly. See *View definitions* section of this manual.

    *   "rrgraph-views"

        Mandatory. Defines 5 views to display the graphs. Must contain 5
        comma-delimited view names for short-period, daily, weekly, monthly,
        and yearly view.

    *   "tokenset-member"

        Optional. Adds this leaf or this subtree child leaves to the
        specified token sets. Tokenset names are comma-separated, and must
        be defined in "<token-sets>" part of configuration.

    *   "descriptive-nickname"

        Optional. If defined, it is used in tokenset members listing as a
        member identifier, instead of the leaf path.

    *   "hidden"

        Optional. Valid values: "yes", "no". When set to "yes", the leaf or
        subtree is not displayed in the subtree listing, unless "SHOWHIDDEN"
        option is true. When "SHOWHIDDEN" is enabled, the node name and
        comment are shown in italics.

    *   "has-overview-shortcuts", "overview-shortcuts",
        "overview-subleave-name-X", "overview-shortcut-text-X",
        "overview-shortcut-title-X", "overview-page-title-X",
        "overview-direct-link-X", "overview-direct-link-view-X"

        When "has-overview-shortcuts" is set to "yes" on a subtree level,
        default HTML templates expect the five parameters to be set.
        "overview-shortcuts" is a comma-separated list of shortcut names,
        and for each name "X", "overview-subleave-name-X" defines the
        current subtree's grandchild leaves name which would compose the
        overview page. When "overview-direct-link-X" is set to "yes", the
        URL under the graph will point to the direct child subtree, and
        "overview-direct-link-view-X" will define the view for that subtree.
        Usually this view would be "expanded-dir-html".

    *   "ignore-lower-limit", "ignore-upper-limit", "ignore-limits"

        Optional. When set to "yes", they make the renderer ignore
        "graph-lower-limit", "graph-upper-limit", or both, accordingly. In
        addition, "ignore-limits" disables the "graph-rigid-boundaries"
        parameter.

    *   "graph-ignore-decorations"

        Optional. When set to "yes", the view "decorations" are ignored.

    *   "graph-disable-gprint"

        Optional. When set to "yes", the view parameter "gprint-values" and
        other GPRINT-related parameters are ignored.

    *   "hrule-legend-*name*"

        Optional. If a horizontal rule with the given name is defined, this
        parameter specifies the legend to be printed.

    *   "searchable"

        Optional. If set to "yes", the corresponding subtree or leaf is
        included in the search database.

   RRD-related parameters
    *   "data-dir"

        Mandatory. Specifies the filesystem directory path where the data
        files are resided.

    *   "data-file"

        Mandatory. Name of the data file.

    *   "leaf-type"

        Mandatory. Determines the type of RRD access. Recognized values are:

        *       "rrd-def"

                Corresponds to DEF specification in RRDgraph query. Implies
                two mandatory parameters: "rrd-ds" and "rrd-cf", giving the
                DS name and consolidation function, correspondingly.

        *       "rrd-ds"

                Mandatory when a leaf refers to an RRD file
                ("storage-type=rrd" in "collector" leaves or
                "leaf-type=rrd-def" in "rrd-file" leaves). The parameter
                Specifies the RRD datasource name within a file.

        *       "rrd-cf"

                Mandatory under the same conditios as "rrd-ds". Defines the
                default consolidation function which is used when retrieving
                the RRD data.

        *       "rrd-cdef"

                Supported for "ds-type=rrd-file" only. Corresponds to CDEF
                specification in RRDgraph query. Implies one mandatory
                parameter: "rpn-expr", which gives the RPN expression. Other
                leaves' value references are specified in curly braces.
                These leaves can be specified as relative or absolute paths
                in the configuration tree. See *RPN expressions in Torrus*
                manual for more details.

    *   "graph-step"

        Optional. If defined, it specifies the minimum step in seconds that
        is used to draw the graph. This can be useful, for eample, if an
        average number of events per hour needs to be displayed.

    *   "rrd-hwpredict"

        Optional. If equals to "enabled", then this RRD datasource is
        expected to have HWPREDICT and all the suite of Holt-Winters
        consolidation functions. In case of "ds-type=collector",
        "rrd-hwpredict=enabled" indicates that the RRD file must be created
        with use of Holt-Winters RRAs.

    *   "rrd-create-dstype"

        Mandatory when "ds-type=collector" and "storage-type=rrd". Specifies

                alpha=0.1, beta=0.0035, gamma=0.1,
                window_length=9, failure_threshold=6

   Collector-related parameters
    *   "collector-type"

        Mandatory parameter for datasource type "collector". Currently
        supported values are: "snmp" and "cdef". Other valid values may be
        added with plugins.

    *   "storage-type"

        Mandatory parameter for datasource type "collector". Comma-separated
        list of storage types. The collected value is duplicated on every
        storage listed. Supported values are: "rrd", "ext". For "ext"
        (external storage), see the *Reporting Setup Guide*.

    *   "collector-period", "collector-timeoffset"

        Mandatory parameters for datasource type "collector". They define
        the collector schedule for each individual datasource. The time for
        execution is determined by formula:

           time + period - (time mod period) + timeoffset

    *   "collector-dispersed-timeoffset"

        Optional. When set to "yes", "compilexml" spreads the collector
        offsets among values determined from "collector-timeoffset-min",
        "collector-timeoffset-max", "collector-timeoffset-step", and
        "collector-timeoffset-hashstring".

    *   "collector-timeoffset-min", "collector-timeoffset-max",
        "collector-timeoffset-step"

        Mandatory when "collector-dispersed-timeoffset" is set to "yes".
        They define the limits and the step for collector timeoffset
        dispersion.

    *   "collector-timeoffset-hashstring"

        Mandatory when "collector-dispersed-timeoffset" is set to "yes".
        Defines the string that is used as a hash for timeoffset dispersion.

    *   "collector-instance-hashstring"

        Mandatory. Defines the string that is used as a hash to calculate
        the collector instance number for a particular leaf. By default it
        is defined as "%system-id%", so that the same collector instance
        deals with every remote system.

    *   "collector-instance"

        Mandatiry. The parameter defines the collector instance number. This
        parameter is automatically calculated by the configuration compiler.

    *   "transform-value"

        Optional. Defines a piece of Perl code that will be used for value
        transformation. The keyword "DOLLAR" is replaced with the dollar
        sign ($), and "MOD" is replaced with the percent sign (%). The
        initial value is supplied in $_, which should be referenced as
        "DOLLAR_" in your Perl code. The code should return a numeric value
        or "U" for an undefined value. The returned value is then passed to
        the storage. The parameter substititions are performed on the value
        of the parameter, therefore it should not contain the percent(%) and
        dollar ($) signs.

    *   "value-map"

        Optional. Collector may return values which need translation into
        numbers. This parameter defines the mapping for such values. The
        parameter value is a comma-separated list of "value:number" pairs.

    *   "collector-scale"

        Optional. Specifies the translation RPN formula for the data before
        being passed to RRD database. Implicitly the datasource value is
        appended to the left of the given RPN. *Warning:* the translation
        works *before* the RRDtool processes the data, so it makes sence to
        scale only non-COUNTER values.

    *   "snmp-ipversion"

        Mandatory for "collector-type=snmp". Valid values are 4 and 6. The
        parameter defines the IP protocol version. If "snmp-host" contains a
        DNS name, the IP address is determined by looking up A or AAAA DNS
        records, according to IP version.

    *   "snmp-transport"

        Mandatory for "collector-type=snmp". Valid values are "tcp" and
        "udp".

    *   "snmp-host"

        Mandatory when "collector-type=snmp". Specifies the hostname or IP
        address of the SNMP agent.

    *   "snmp-port"

        Mandatory when "collector-type=snmp". Specifies the UDP port of the
        SNMP agent.

    *   "domain-name"

        Optional DNS domain name. If given, and if "snmp-host" does not
        contain dot symbol (.), this domain name is appended to "snmp-host".

    *   "snmp-localaddr" and "snmp-localport"

        Optional parameters specifying the local socket binding address and
        port.

    *   "snmp-version"

        Mandatory when "collector-type=snmp". Specifies the SNMP version for
        the given device. Valid values are: 1, "2c", 3.

    *   "snmp-community"

        Mandatory when "collector-type=snmp" and SNMP version is 1 or "2c".
        Specifies the SNMP community for the given device.

    *   "snmp-username"

        Mandatory when "collector-type=snmp" and SNMP version is 3.

    *   "snmp-contextname"

        Optional SNMP context name for SNMPv3.

    *   "snmp-authkey"

        Optional authentication key for SNMPv3. If not defined, the
        authentication level is set to "noAuthNoPriv". If only
        "snmp-authkey" or "snmp-authpassword" are specified, the security
        level is set to "authNoPriv". The security level is set to
        "authPriv" if either of "snmp-privkey" or "snmp-privpassword" is
        defined.

    *   "snmp-authpassword"

        Optional authentication password for SNMPv3. See notes for
        "snmp-authkey" parameter.

    *   "snmp-authprotocol"

        Optional authentication protocol for SNMPv3. Valid values: "md5" or
        "sha". Default is "md5".

    *   "snmp-privkey"

        Optional privacy key for SNMPv3. If defined, "snmp-authkey" or
        "snmp-authpassword" must be defined too.

    *   "snmp-privpassword"

        Optional privacy password for SNMPv3. If defined, "snmp-authkey" or
        "snmp-authpassword" must be defined too.

    *   "snmp-privprotocol"

        Optional privacy protocol for SNMPv3. Valid values: "des", "aes", or
        "3desede". Default is "des".

    *   "snmp-timeout"

        Mandatory when "collector-type=snmp". Specifies the SNMP session
        timeout in seconds.

    *   "snmp-retries"

        Mandatory when "collector-type=snmp". Specifies the SNMP session
        retry count.

    *   "snmp-oids-per-pdu"

        Mandatory when "collector-type=snmp". Specifies the number of SNMP
        OIDs per one UDP packet.

    *   "snmp-object"

        Mandatory when "collector-type=snmp". Specifies the SNMP OID to be
        polled from the agent. The object must return a single numeric
        value.

        In order to reference the dynamic instances, i.e. interface
        counters, two mapping types are supported: reverse mapping and
        variable value substitution.

        Reverse mapping has syntax as follows:

          M(baseoid, string)

        The result of reverse mapping is the tail of the OID which has the
        head "baseoid" and whose value equals the string.

        Variable value substitution is defined by syntax:

          V(oid)

        The returned value must be a numeric value which is substituted in
        place of this expression.

    *   "snmp-object-type"

        Optional. Supported values: "COUNTER64", "OTHER". When set to
        "COUNTER64", the SNMP variable value is treated as 64-bit integer.
        Not using this parameter may lead to loss of precision.

    *   "snmp-check-sysuptime"

        Optional. Default value: "yes". When set to "no", the collector does
        not query "SNMPv2-MIB::sysUpTime" (1.3.6.1.2.1.1.3.0). By default,
        the uptime counter is used to detect if the agent was rebooted
        between the collector cycles. In this case the dynamic maps for the
        given host are automatically rebuilt. This parameter is needed for
        compatibility with some non-standard agents which don't implement
        this OID.

    *   "snmp-max-msg-size"

        Optional. If defined, it sets the SNMP maximum message size
        different from default 1472 octets (true for UDP/IPv4, see Net::SNMP
        documentation for more information).

    *   "snmp-ignore-mib-errors"

        Optional. If set to "yes", the SNMP errors "noSuchObject",
        "noSuchInstance", "endOfMibView" are ignored, and no action is
        performed when such errors occur.

    *   "system-id"

        Mandatory for every collector type. Default value for SNMP
        collector: "%snmp-host%". Unique identifier of the host. This
        parameter is used in various template definitions for "data-file",
        "descriptive-nickname" and "collector-timeoffset-hashstring".

    *   "rpn-expr"

        Mandatory when "collector-type=cdef". The RPN defines an arithmetic
        expression that is used to create a new datasource from several
        other ones. For example, it may define the sum of traffic on several
        different interfaces.

    *   "cdef-collector-delay"

        Mandatory when "collector-type=cdef". Defines the delay time in
        collector periods. The collector will read the data from the RPN
        datasources with the specified delay from the current time.
        cdef-collector-defs.xml sets the default value to 0.

    *   "cdef-collector-tolerance"

        Mandatory when "collector-type=cdef". Delay time in collector
        periods that the collector accepts when no recent data is available.
        cdef-collector-defs.xml sets the default value to 2.

   RRD-Multigraph leaves
    The leaves with "ds-type=rrd-multigraph" are dedicated for displaying of
    several datasource values in one graph. Such leaves cannot be referenced
    for a numerical value, hence cannot be monitored.

    Example:

      <subtree name="SampleMulti">
        <leaf name="sample1">
          <param name="ds-type" value="rrd-multigraph" />
          <param name="ds-names" value="in,out" />
          <param name="foobarpath"
                 value="/SNMP/Routers/213.230.38.4/FastEthernet0_0" />

          <!-- parameter name tail is formed by the DS name -->

          <param name="ds-expr-in"       value="{%foobarpath%/locIfInBitsSec}" />
          <param name="graph-legend-in"  value="Bits per second in" />
          <param name="line-style-in"   value="AREA" />
          <param name="line-color-in"   value="#00FF00" />
          <param name="line-order-in"    value="1" />

          <param name="ds-expr-out"      value="{%foobarpath%/locIfOutBitsSec}" />
          <param name="graph-legend-out" value="Bits per second out" />
          <param name="line-style-out"   value="LINE2" />
          <param name="line-color-out"   value="#0000FF" />
          <param name="line-order-out"   value="2" />

        </leaf>
      </subtree>

    Parameters:

    *   "ds-names"

        Comma-separated list of symbolic DS names. These names are used for
        other DS-specific parameter names formation. In the parameter
        descriptions below, "X" stands for the DS name.

    *   "ds-expr-X"

        Datasource leaf RPN expression. Any other parameter values may be
        substituted as "%parameter_name%".

    *   "graph-legend-X"

        Short description text used as the graph legend.

    *   "line-style-X"

        Line specification in RRD graph. May be *"LINE1"*, *"LINE2"* etc.
        Two hashes in the beginning and a name refer to the line style from
        the styling profile, e.g. "##BpsIn".

    *   "line-color-X"

        Line color. Must have the hash symbol in the beginning, like
        *"#0000FF"*. Two hashes in the beginning and a name refer to the
        color from the styling profile, e.g. "##BpsIn".

    *   "line-order-X"

        Numerical order of line drawing. The lines are drawn in accending
        order. If omitted, the XML compiler issues warning, and Renderer
        conciders the order of 100.

    *   "line-stack-X"

        Optional. When set to "yes", the line is stacked on top of a
        previous line. Both areas and lines are stackable.

    *   "line-alpha-X"

        Optional. If specified, must be two hexademical, uppercase digits.
        This parameter defines the line (or area) transparency. Value "FF"
        is equivalent to solid colour. Value "7F" gives 50% transparency
        which should be suitable for most applications.

    *   "ignore-views-X"

        Optional comma-separated list of view names. The graph for this DS
        name will not be drawn in the views specified. The validator does
        not check it, so it's up to you to guarantee that at least one DS is
        always displayed in a multigraph.

    *   "disable-gprint-X"

        Optional. When set to "yes", this datasource is not included in
        GPRINT output.

    *   "maxline-style-X" and "maxline-color-X"

        Optional parameters that define the style and color for the
        *maximum* line. The maxim line usually displays daily or hourly
        maximums, and the color needs to be contrast enough to be
        distinctively visible on the graph.

  View definitions
    In our context, *view* means any kind of object representation. The same
    subtree or view can be displayed in different ways and in different
    formats: HTML, graph image, plain text, etc.

    *Renderer* module handles these view definitions. For any subtree or
    leaf, it renders the specified view, and keeps the cache of rendered
    files.

    Each subtree or leaf must have a default view. This is controlled by two
    parameters that may be defined in the root subtree:
    "default-subtree-view" and "default-leaf-view".

    The set of views is flat, though they can inherit the parameters one
    from another. Each view is referenced by its name, and is defined by the
    set of parameters. Same way as with datasources, certain parameter
    values imply the neccessaty to define certain other parameters:

      <views>
        <view name="default-rrgraph">
          <param name="view-type"     value="rrgraph" />
          <param name="expires"       value="300" />
          <param name="width"         value="500" />
          <param name="height"        value="250" />
          <param name="width-hint"    value="580" />
          <param name="line-style"    value="##SingleGraph" />
          <param name="line-color"    value="##SingleGraph" />

          <!-- Daily graph, inherits parameters from the above -->
          <view name="last24h">
            <param name="start"         value="-24h" />
          </view>

          <!-- Weekly graph -->
          <view name="lastweek">
            <param name="start"         value="-7d" />
          </view>
        </view>
      </views>

    Currently the view is defined by the configuration only. Probably, in
    the future additional parameters will be supplied dynamically.

   View parameters
    For every view, the mandatory parameters are:

    *   "view-type"

        Determines the processing procedure which interprets the other
        parameters.

    *   "expires"

        Gives the expiration time in seconds for the *Renderer* cache.

    The following values of "view-type" are recognized:

    *   "html"

        Defines the HTML representation of subtree or a leaf. One additional
        parameter is required: "html-template" must contain a file name of
        the HTML template. Those templates are copied from templates
        subdirectory of the installation package. We use Template-Toolkit
        <http://www.template-toolkit.org> for HTML processing. The template
        file name is defined with the parameter "html-template".

        The following variables and functions are defined when the template
        is processed:

        *       "token"

                Returns the current node token.

        *       "view"

                Returns the list of children for the given path.

        *       "isLeaf(token)"

                Returns true if the token is pointing to a leaf node.

        *       "sortTokens(array)"

                Returns the array of tokens, sorted according to
                "precedence" parameter.

        *       "nodeName(token)"

                Returns the node name part of the node path.

        *       "parent(token)"

                Returns the parent's token for the specified node.

        *       "nodeParam(token, param_name)"

                monitor, or action.

        *       "url(token, [view])"

                Returns the URL which displays the given node using the
                given view. If the view is omitted, use the default view.

        *       "splitUrls(token, [view])"

                Returns a piece of HTML code representing the path with
                clickable node names, each referencing the corresponding
                view.

        *       "rrprint(token, view)"

                The specified view must be of type "rrprint". Returned is
                the text output produced by this view.

        *       "scale(text)"

                Interprets the given text as a floating-point number and
                returns its representation in the "metric" scale: 1000 is
                translated into "k", million into "M" etc. It may be used
                together with "rrprint" for better formatting.

        *       "stylesheet"

                Returns the relative URI to the default CSS stylesheet, as
                defined in $Torrus::Renderer::stylesheet.

        *       "version"

                Returns current Torrus package version.

    *   "rrgraph"

        Generates the RRD Graph representation of the given *leaf*
        (remember, subtrees are only logical grouping of the real data).

        The following parameters are recognized for this kind of view:

        *       "width", "height", "start", "end", "imgformat", "border"

                These view parameters correspond to same parameters in RRD
                Graph command. "end" can also be given, it defaults to
                *"now"*. The following parameters are mandatory: "width",
                "height", and "start". "border" is only supported in RRDtool
                version 1.3.9 or higher.

        *       "line-style"

                Mandatory line specification in RRD graph. May be *"LINE1"*,
                *"LINE2"* etc. Two hashes in the beginning and a name refer
                to the line style from the styling profile, e.g.
                "##SingleGraph".

        *       "line-color"

                Mandatory line color. Must have the hash symbol in the
                beginning, like *"#0000FF"*. Two hashes in the beginning and
                a name refer to the color from the styling profile, e.g.
                "##SingleGraph".

        *       "graph-colors"

                Optional. The parameter defines the values for the "--color"
                options in RRD Graph command. The value is an even number of
                color tags and color values, separated by colon (:). For
                example, "BACK:00FFFF:FONT:AA55DD" corresponds to an ugly
                cyan background and magenta text.

        *       "rrd-hwpredict"

                Optional. If equals to "disabled", HWPREDICT display is
                disabled for this view. Note that if the datasource has
                "rrd-hwpredict" parameter set to "enabled", this emplies
                that the view would contain Holt-Winters boundaries and
                failures graph.

        *       "hw-bndr-style"

                Optional parameter, defaults to "LINE1". Specifies the line
                style for Holt-Winters boundaries.

        *       "hw-bndr-color"

                Optional parameter, defaults to "#FF0000". Specifies the
                color for Holt-Winters boundaries.

        *       "hw-fail-color"

                Optional parameter, defaults to "#FFFFA0". Specifies the
                color for Holt-Winters failure ticks.

        *       "hrules", "hrule-value-*name*", "hrule-color-*name*"

                Optional parameter "hrules" contains a comma-separated list
                of horizontal rule names. For each name, mandatory parameter
                "hrule-value-*name*" defines a name of the leaf parameter
                that will be used as the horizontal rule value. The rule is
                not drawn if such parameter is not defined for the leaf.
                Mandatory parameter "hrule-color-*name*" defines the color
                for the rule, of the form "#DDDDDD", where "D" corresponds
                to a hexademical digit. Two hashes in the beginning and a
                name refer to the color from the styling profile, e.g.
                "##HruleMin". Optional parameter "hrule-legend-*name*"
                defines the legend text to be displayed on the graph. The
                following horizontal rules are defined in defaults.xml for
                all rrgraph views:

                    <param name="hrules"            value="min,norm,max"/>
                    <param name="hrule-color-min"   value="##HruleMin"/>
                    <param name="hrule-value-min"   value="lower-limit"/>
                    <param name="hrule-color-norm"  value="##HruleNormal"/>
                    <param name="hrule-value-norm"  value="normal-level"/>
                    <param name="hrule-color-max"   value="##HruleMax"/>
                    <param name="hrule-value-max"   value="upper-limit"/>

        *       "decorations"

                Optional. Comma-separated list of decoration names.
                Decoration is an RRD pseudo-line that does not depend on any
                datasource. For each decoration name, the following
                parameters must be supplied: "dec-order-<name>" determines
                the order of drawing. Negative order numbers correspond to
                the lines or areas behind the data line. "dec-expr-<name>"
                gives the RPN expression that defines the line or area.
                "dec-style-<name>" and "dec-color-<name>" define the style
                (AREA or LINE1..3) and the color of the drawing. Node
                parameter "graph-ignore-decorations" disables the
                decorations.

        *       "gprint-values", "gprint-header", "gprint-format-*"

                Optional. These parameters define the printing of values
                together with legends below the graph. "gprint-values" is a
                comma-separated list of format names, and for each format
                name, there should be a corresponding "gprint-format-*"
                parameter. "gprint-header" defines a string that will be
                printed on top of all orther lines. Example:

                    <param name="gprint-values"         value="current,average,max,min"/>
                    <param name="gprint-header"
                           value="Current    Average    Maximum    Minimum"/>
                    <param name="gprint-format-current" value="LAST:%8.2lf%s"/>
                    <param name="gprint-format-average" value="AVERAGE:%8.2lf%s"/>
                    <param name="gprint-format-max"     value="MAX:%8.2lf%s"/>
                    <param name="gprint-format-min"     value="MIN:%8.2lf%s"/>

        *       "description"

                Optional. Defines the text description of the graph. This
                description is usually placed as ALT HTML attribute in the
                generated HTML pages.

        *       "rrd-params"

                Optional. Supplies additional RRDtool graph comand-line
                options, as one string separated by spaces.

    *   "rrprint"

        This view produces the text output from PRINT statement in RRD graph
        command. The required parameters are "start" and "print-cf". The
        first one defines the starting time. "end" may be also optionally
        specified.

        "print-cf" specifies one or more consolidation functions, separated
        by comma. The result of the rendering is the text line with the
        output values separated by colon (:).

    *   "disable-legend", "disable-title", "disable-vertical-label"

        When set to "yes", the corresponding elements of the graph are not
        displayed.

   Styling Profiles
    Styling profiles allow symbolic names to be used for line type and
    color.

    Two hashes in the beginning and a name refer to the line style from the
    styling profile, e.g. "##BpsIn", "##green", "##one", "##two".

          <leaf name="InOutBytes">
            <param name="comment" value="Input and Output bits per second graphs"/>
            <param name="ds-type" value="rrd-multigraph"/>
            <param name="ds-names" value="in,out"/>
            <!-- IN -->
            <param name="ds-expr-in" value="{ifInOctets}"/>
            <param name="graph-legend-in" value="Bytes per second in"/>
            <param name="line-style-in" value="##BpsIn"/>
            <param name="line-color-in" value="##BpsIn"/>
            <param name="line-order-in" value="1"/>
            <!-- OUT -->
            <param name="ds-expr-out" value="{ifOutOctets}"/>
            <param name="graph-legend-out" value="Bytes per second out"/>
            <param name="line-style-out" value="##BpsOut"/>
            <param name="line-color-out" value="##BpsOut"/>
            <param name="line-order-out" value="2"/>
          </leaf>

    When processed the example above effectivly becomes:

          <leaf name="InOutBytes">
            <param name="comment" value="Input and Output bits per second graphs"/>
            <param name="ds-type" value="rrd-multigraph"/>
            <param name="ds-names" value="in,out"/>
            <!-- IN -->
            <param name="ds-expr-in" value="{ifInOctets}"/>
            <param name="graph-legend-in" value="Bytes per second in"/>
            <param name="line-style-in" value="AREA"/>
            <param name="line-color-in" value="#00FF00"/>
            <param name="line-order-in" value="1"/>
            <!-- OUT -->
            <param name="ds-expr-out" value="{ifOutOctets}"/>
            <param name="graph-legend-out" value="Bytes per second out"/>
            <param name="line-style-out" value="LINE2"/>
            <param name="line-color-out" value="#0000FF"/>
            <param name="line-order-out" value="2"/>
          </leaf>

    Schema definitions can be modified in two ways (see the *Torrus Styling
    Profile Guide* manual for available styles and override details)

    *   Create an overlay schema:

        Specify the overlay schema in torrus-siteconfig.pl using the
        $Torrus::Renderer::stylingProfileOverlay variable.

    *   Create a replacement schema:

        Specify the replacement schema in torrus-siteconfig using the
        $Torrus::Renderer::stylingProfile variable.

  Token sets definitions
    *Token* is a symbolic identifier for each subtree or a leaf.

    A *tokenset* is a named list of tokens. Its contents can be rendered,
    and its members can be added or removed at any time.

    Each tokenset can have a number of parameters defined. It also inherits
    the parameter defined in the top "<token-sets>" XML element:

      <token-sets>

        <param name="default-tset-view" value="default-tset-html" />
        <param name="default-tsetlist-view" value="tset-list-html" />

        <token-set name="jumps">
          <param name="comment" value="Traffic rate jumps" />
          <param name="rrgraph-view" value="lastweek-small"/>
        </token-set>

        <token-set name="hw-failures">
          <param name="comment" value="Holt-Winters prediction failures" />
        </token-set>

      </token-sets>

    Parameter "default-tsetlist-view" is mandatory for tokenset list. It
    defines the default view when displaying the list of tokensets.

    The following parameters are mandatory for tokensets:

    *   "default-tset-view"

        Determines the view for displaying the tokenset contents.

    *   "rrgraph-view"

        Specifies the name of the view that is used to display graphs inside
        the tokenset. If not specified, the first view in "rrgraph-views"
        from each leaf is used to display the graph.

    *   "comment"

        The text that describes this tokenset.

  Monitor definitions
    *Monitor* is a named set of parameters that defines the behaviour of
    monitor module. Each leaf can be given a number of monitors via
    "monitor" parameter.

    Upon monitor module run, an *action* is launched if the alarm conditions
    of a given monitor are satisfied.

      <monitors>
        <!-- First define the actions -->

        <!-- This action will put the graphs of alarmed datasources in
             a single alarm report page -->
        <action name="graph-hw-failures">
          <param name="action-type" value="tset" />
          <param name="set-name" value="hw-failures" />
        </action>

        <action name="graph-jumps">
          <param name="action-type" value="tset" />
          <param name="set-name" value="jumps" />
        </action>

        <monitor name="hw-failures">
          <param name="monitor-type" value="failures" />
          <param name="action" value="graph-hw-failures" />
          <param name="expires" value="3600" />
        </monitor>

        <!-- alarm if 5 minutes away it was 10 times lower -->
        <monitor name="high-jumps">
          <param name="monitor-type" value="expression" />
          <param name="rpn-expr" value="{(-300)},10,*,GT,{},{(-300)},10,/,LT,OR" />
          <param name="action" value="graph-jumps" />
          <param name="expires" value="3600" />
          <param name="comment"
                 value="Value jumped more than 10-fold in 5 minutes" />
        </monitor>

        <monitor name="hundred-megs">
          <param name="monitor-type" value="expression" />
          <param name="rpn-expr" value="100,1024,1024,*,*,GT" />
          <param name="action" value="graph-jumps" />
          <param name="expires" value="3600" />
          <param name="comment"
                 value="Traffic is higher than 10 mbps" />
        </monitor>
      </monitors>

   Event types
    Should the alarm condition occur, a series of events is happening in
    sequentional order:

    *   "set"

        This event type occurs the first time the alarm condition is met.

    *   "repeat"

        This event type means that the alarm condition still persists after
        the previous run of Monitor.

    *   "escalate"

        If escalation times are defined with "escalations" parameter, this
        event is fired if the alarm condition persists for a specified time.
        Each escalation event is fired only once.

    *   "clear"

        Event of this type happens when the alarm condition stops.

    *   "clear_escalation"

        After the "clear" event is fired, "clear_escalation" is also fired
        for every escalation that was raised before it.

    *   "forget"

        Once the alarm is cleared, this event happens after the expiration
        time of the monitor.

   Monitor parameters
    *   "monitor-type"

        Mandatory parameter. Specifies the monitor type. The following
        monitor types are recognized:

        *       "failures"

                Triggers the action when Holt-Winters FAILURES function
                gives value of 1. This requires RRDtool verion 1.1.x and
                aberrant behaviour parameters defined for te given RRD file.

        *       "expression"

                Triggers the action when given RPN expression returns
                nonzero. See *RPN expressions in Torrus* manual for more
                details. This monitor type implies that the RPN expression
                is specified in "rpn-expr" parameter. The current leaf value
                is prepended to the given RPN.

    *   "escalations"

        Optional parameter with comma-separated escalation times. Each
        escalation time is a period in seconds. As soon as the alarm
        condition persists for the specified period, an "escalate" event is
        fired.

    *   "rpn-expr"

        Mandatory for monitor type "expression". Defines the RPN expression
        to evaluate. The current leaf value is prepended to the given RPN.
        The expresion may reference leaf-dependent variables: the constructs
        of the form "#varname" are replaced with the variable value
        specified in the leaf's "monitor-vars" parameter.

    *   "time-span"

        Optional parameter, a positive integer specifying the time span in
        seconds. If defined, the data source value is calculated across the
        defined period with the aggregation function that is defined in
        "rrd-cf" parameter. If not specified, the last available value is
        taken.

    *   "time-zone"

        Optional parameter. If defined, it should contain a valid time zone
        name that is resolvable on the local server. This affects the TOD
        function in RPN expressions. If undefined, the local time zone is
        used.

    *   "action"

        Mandatory parameter, comma-separated list of action names (spaces
        are allowed). Each action is triggered when the alarm condition is
        met.

    *   "expires"

        Mandatory parameter, the number of seconds of expiration period.
        After the alarm condition becomes false, this parameter determines
        the time of memorizing the event in monitor status reports.

    *   "comment"

        Optional but recommended parameter, specifies the string identifying
        the event that this monitor watches.

    *   "severity"

        Optional severity level. Used for the action type "exec".

    *   "display-rpn-expr"

        Optional RPN expression for transforming the datasource value. If
        defined, it will be applied to the value before setting
        "TORRUS_VALUE" and "TORRUS_DISPLAY_VALUE" environment variables.

    *   "display-format"

        Optional *sprintf* format for displaying the value in
        "TORRUS_DISPLAY_VALUE" environment variable. Default is "%.2f".

   Action parameters
    *   "action-type"

        Mandatory parameter, defines the type of action. Recognized values
        are:

        *       "tset"

                When this type of action is triggered, the leaf is added to
                the specified tokenset (see *Token sets definitions* section
                in this manual). The leaf persists in the tokenset until the
                event of type "forget". This action type implies the
                parameter "tset-name".

        *       "exec"

                This action type defines an external program to launch. Two
                other parameters determinate its behaviour: mandatory
                "command" and optional "launch-when".

    *   "tset-name"

        Mandatory for action type "tset". Defines the tokenset name where
        the leaf is added when the monitor condition is met.

    *   "on-escalations"

        Optional parameter for action type "tset". It specifies a
        comma-separated list of escalation times at which the leaf would be
        added to the tokenset.

    *   "command"

        Mandatory for action type "exec". Defines the external program to
        launch. The following strings are substituted in the parameter
        value:

        *       "&gt;"

                Relaced with ">".

        *       "&lt;"

                Relaced with "<".

        The following environment variables are passed to the child process:

        *       $TORRUS_HOME

                "prefix" where Torrus was installed.

        *       $TORRUS_BIN

                Directory containing Torrus executables.

        *       $TORRUS_UPTIME

                Number of seconds since Monitor has started.

        *       $TORRUS_TREE, $TORRUS_TOKEN, $TORRUS_NODEPATH

                Tree name, token and pathname of the leaf causing the alarm.

        *       $TORRUS_NCOMMENT, $TORRUS_NPCOMMENT

                "comment" parameter of the node and its parent. Empty if the
                parameter is not defined for the given leaf.

        *       $TORRUS_EVENT

                Event type.

        *       $TORRUS_ESCALATION

                Escalation time. It is set to zero when the "set" event is
                fired.

        *       $TORRUS_MONITOR

                Monitor name

        *       $TORRUS_MCOMMENT

                Monitor's "comment" parameter value.

        *       $TORRUS_TSTAMP

                Timestamp (in seconds since Epoch) of the event.

        *       $TORRUS_VALUE

                For expression monitor type, this returns the last read
                value of the datasource, possibly transformed by
                "display-rpn-expr" expression.

        *       $TORRUS_DISPLAY_VALUE

                For expression monitor type, it contains a human-readable
                form of the value, possibly transformed by
                "display-rpn-expr" expression.

        *       $TORRUS_SEVERITY

                If the "severity" parameter is defined in the monitor, its
                value is passed with this variable.

    *   "launch-when"

        Optional for action type "exec". The comma-separated list of event
        types when the given action should be launched. If not defined, the
        event types "set,escalate" are used by default.

    *   "setenv-params"

        Optional for action type "exec". The comma-separated list of leaf
        parameters which would be passed as environment variables to the
        child process. The environment variables are of the form
        $TORRUS_P_paramname. Hyphens ('-') are replaced with underscores
        ('_') in the parameter names.

    *   "setenv-dataexpr"

        Optional for action type "exec". Comma-separated list of
        "ENV=paramname" pairs. "ENV" defines the environment variable name:
        it is prefixed with "Torrus_". "paramname" defines the action
        parameter name. This parameter is interpreted as RPN expression
        applied to the current leaf being monitored. The result of this RPN
        expression is passed to the action script in the environment
        variable.

        Example:

          <action name="report-temperature">
              <param name="action-type" value="exec" />

              <!-- This is our proprietary reporting script -->
              <param name="command">
                /usr/local/bin/report_temperature
              </param>
              <param name="launch-when" value="set" />

              <!-- We want to tell the action script the actual values
                   of the "temperature" and "humidity" leaves in the current
                   datasource tree -->
              <param name="setenv-dataexpr" value="TEMP=expr-temp, HMD=expr-hmd" />
              <param name="expr-temp" value="{temperature(LAST)}" />
              <param name="expr-hmd" value="{humidity(LAST)}" />

              <!-- We also want to tell the action script the parameter "monitor-vars"
                   which was configured for the current leaf. -->
              <param name="setenv-params" value="monitor-vars" />
          </action>
