Rob, if you implemented the script example I posted, you should be able to look in the script log to see if it is doing anything. Just remember not to refer to NCV anywhere in the configuration.
The log will tell you if the script is being called at all -- you can enable any debug you want -- just make sure you write it to the log, since you will never see STDOUT. You can even cat the incoming file out to the log.
This is what I had to do to get it working -- sort of organically.

I'm pretty sure this is the trouble. Ladies and gentlemen, i am stumped. Following all the instructions in the docs, manpages, faqs and alien communications, as well as the very helpful samples provided by list members... no new file ever gets created in ~/data/rrd/<hostname>.
I have status, so i know client info is reaching server. I have copied almost verbatim the sample server-side script needed to parse this info and spit it back out to RRD. And i have eschewed NCV and gone in favor of hobbitd_channel --options to make this all work right, or so I thought.
If you make a custom script and the rrd file never happens, where would you look first? The serverside script itself? hobbitlaunch. or
- -graph.cfg options? Somewhere else? Mars? I'd be willing to check Mars at this point.
