NAME

       mrtg-load - Returns the current load or uptime data

SYNOPSIS

       mrtg-load ([-l 1|5|15] [-m multiplier])*2

DESCRIPTION

       mrtg-load returns the system load averages for the past 1, 5, or 15 minutes.  The output is written in a
       form useful as input for the MRTG utility.  Every parameter can be accepted twice and allow to control
       the two values in the output.

       -l 1|5|15
           Sets the system load average to display in the output.  If none is set, only the 5 minutes average
           with be displyed in the second position.

       -m multiplier
           Sets the multiplier to be used in the output.  For example, with a load of 1.2 and a multiplier of
           100, the output load average would be 120.  Note that the option order is important.  If it is
           defined once, affect both output values.  The default multiplier is 1.

EXAMPLE

       Prints the 5-minute average of the system load, multiplied by 100.

           mrtg-load -m 100

       Prints the 1-minute and 15-minute averages of the system load. The firs one multipled by 10, the second
       one by 100.

           mrtg-load -l 1 -m 10 -l 15 -m 100
