I am trying to graph the ntp offset of a few ntp servers. I can see a defin= ition in hobbitgraph referring to [ntpstat] and have defined the ntp test i= n the bb-hosts file, but I don't see any rrds being generated and obviously= no graphs for the hosts.

What do I need to do to make the graphs appear?

Heh, I didn't realize that had snuck into the distribution :-)

It's using data from "ntpq", running as a client-side add-on on the box that you want to monitor ntp for. It's dead simple:

#!/bin/sh

This script is an extension for the BB client running on

your server. It will feed data about the local NTP daemon

into Hobbit, where the offset between the NTP reference

clock and the local clock will be graphed.

$BB $BBDISP "data $MACHINE.ntpstat

ntpq -c \"rv 0 offset\" "

exit 0
