Hi;

I have installed hobbit 4.2 debian package o my server.. i have the following script sending data from a remote client #!/bin/sh BBPROG=bb-iostat.sh; export BBPROG if test "$BBHOME" = "" then echo "BBHOME is not set... exiting" exit 1 fi

if test ! "$BBTMP" # GET DEFINITIONS IF NEEDED then # echo "*** LOADING BBDEF ***" . $BBHOME/etc/bbdef.sh # INCLUDE STANDARD DEFINITIONS fi iostat -c | nl | grep "^ 3" | awk '{print $5}'> $BBHOME/tmp.iostat io="cat $BBHOME/tmp.iostat" iostat -c | nl | grep "^ 3" | awk '{print $6}'> $BBHOME/tmp.iostat iowait="cat $BBHOME/tmp.iostat" echo -e "\nio : $io\niowait : $iowait" > $BBHOME/tmp.iostat COLOR="green" $BB $BBDISP "status $MACHINE.diskIO $COLOR date

cat $BBHOME/tmp.iostat " and i get the following on my hobbit page under column diskIO Tue Feb 13 02:20:53 PST 2007

io : 0.30 iowait : 99.21

my hobbitserver.cfg TEST2RRD="cpu=la,disk,cpu2,inode,qtree,memory,$PINGCOLUMN=tcp,http=tcp,dns=tcp,dig=tcp,time=ntpstat,vmstat,iostat,netstat,temperature,apache,bind,sendmail,mailq,nmailq=mailq,socks,bea,iishealth,citrix,bbgen,bbtest,bbproxy,hobbitd,files,procs=processes,ports,clock,lines,mysql=ncv,diskIO=ncv" GRAPHS="la,disk,cpu2,inode,qtree,files,processes,memory,users,vmstat,iostat, tcp.http ,tcp,ncv,netstat,ifstat,mrtg::1,ports,temperature,ntpstat,apache,bind,sendmail,mailq,socks,bea,iishealth,citrix,bbgen,bbtest,bbproxy,hobbitd,clock,lines,mysql,diskIO"

the thing is when i put NCV_diskIO="io:GUAGE,iowait:GUAGE" i get no rrd data and when i put NCV_diskIO="diskIO:GUAGE" or NCV_diskIO"GUAGE" i get data as fllow

    </ds>

as u see they are all drive not guage!!! and the graph appears with wrong data.. and is therefore drown worng!! here is my hobbitgraph [diskIO] TITLE diskIO YAXIS io DEF:diskIO=diskIO.rrd:io:AVERAGE LINE2:diskIO#00CCCC:io COMMENT:\n GPRINT:diskIO:LAST: \: %5.1lf (cur) GPRINT:diskIO:MAX: \: %5.1lf (max) GPRINT:diskIO:MIN: \: %5.1lf (min) GPRINT:diskIO:AVERAGE: \: %5.1lf (avg)\n

is there something wrong that i did?
