Hi All,
I have set up a test to monitor the queue depth on several queues on an MQ server and the output on the xymon page looks like so -
*Queue Count
TSG.DRE.AA.CUST - prd.CustomerQueue : 130 TSG.DRE.AA.ORDE - prd.OrdersQueue : 0 TSG.DRE.AA.PAYM - prd.PaymentsQueue : 0*
I've configured xymon to collect the data in seperate RRDs for graphing using splitncv method.
The RRDs have names like below -
QueueCount,TSG_DRE_AA_CUST_prd_CustomerQueue.rrd
The name of the check being performed i.e the column in Xymon is - QueueCount
Now, what I want is for the QueueCount column to go red once the queues reach a certain threshold. So in my analysis.cfg file I placed the below entry.
HOST=PROD_MQ DS QueueCount SysopPerfCount,QueueCount,TSG_DRE_AA_CUST_prd_CustomerQueue.rrd:lambda
100 COLOR=red "TEXT=Backlogs on MQ"
Somehow this never works and the status never changes to red no matter what is the queue count on the queues. The data collection to the RRD and the graphs work fine. Any idea what is going wrong here. Any fundamental thing I am missing before trying to change status of checks based on RRDs using splitncv.
Thanks!
