I'm trying to define custom lookup values like documented in the PRTG Manual. There is no folder "lookups" in the PRTG program directory where I can save my .ovl file.


Article Comments

Hello there,

Lookups are always stored on the PRTG Core Server (Since the Core is the one that evaluates monitoring results). The default path for standard lookups is:

C:\Program Files (x86)\PRTG Network Monitor\lookups\

The default path for custom lookups is:

C:\Program Files (x86)\PRTG Network Monitor\lookups\custom\

This is also documented in the manual page define lookups.


Best Regards,
Luciano Lingnau [Paessler Support]

My fault: I was looking into the installation folder of the PRTG Probe not of the core!
