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.
Lets see your hobbitlaunch.cfg setup for the [rrdstatus] and [rrddata] tasks. Also, could you run this command for 10 minutes (as the hobbit user) and let us see what it reports:
bbcmd hobbitd_channel --channel=status
hobbitd_capture --tests=YOUR-COLUMN-NAME
That will tell us what kind of data arrives from your test script.
Does your server-side script run at all ? Put a line like echo "This is my script" >/tmp/itruns and see if the /tmp/itruns file appears when the status is updated.
Have you checked the Hobbit log-files in ~hobbit/server/logs/ ? The hobbitlaunch.log file and rrd-status.log file.
