One other thing thats bugged me for a while, maybe related, I get some really random spurious RRD files generated, which when I look in the trends page for a specific host really make things messy. So, for example, in ./data/rrd/hostname1 for a specific service I'm monitoring called warehouse, I should have: ./warehouse,Memory.rrd ./warehouse,Threads.rrd
but as well as those I get all sorts of randomness: warehouse,24590_24589_xymon_09.rrd warehouse,4224_1_hostname2_20.rrd warehouse,Kernel.rrd murexnet,_FONT_SIZE.rrd etc In other words, appended other server names, PIDs, and other processes, and even xymon keywords..
They seem to get generated in clumps everynow and then, say a whole load of new ones at a specific time. Colons and equal signs are confusing the RRD module of Xymon. Replacing each ':' by ':' and each '=' by '=' should solve this problem. Of course, these replacements should NOT be done in the lines containing the actual data to be entered into an RRD.
kind regards, Wim Nelis.
