rrd files not getting created. - SUMMARY
Sorry, I saw this yesterday, but then got side tracked, and didn’t answer.
First, NEVER remove the mailing list, there are so many guys that know so much more about xymon than I do. And that goes for just about everyone except maybe Henrik and JC.
So this looks like a configuration issue in general, not a failed custom graph.
Do you get graphs for anything? In trends of in specific tests? Does showgraph.sh exist in you xymon-cgi directory? You can find you xymon-cgi directory location in the xymon-apache.conf file, which should be in your httpd configuration directory. Is this a new install? What version of xymon are using, and what operating system?

thanks Root for your reply,
When I click magnifying glass I get this error"The requested URL /xymon-cgi/showgraph.sh was not found on this server". And I am not creating a custom graphs, Do I have to make any changes to xymonserver.cfg?
Thanks

It is important that the rrd file you want to create doesn’t exist before you do the restart of the xymond_rrd processes. It is VERY finicky.
Then moving onto the graph creation. I stumbled on debugging information. If the graph isn’t created, click on the magnifying glass next to it, and it will give you an error message, that is a clue as to why the graph wasn’t made.
Also, the example on “Custom Graphs” page is invalid. It doesn’t work. The %s in the GPRINTs are invalid. I also had a typo with DEV instead of DEF, and we all know the V vs F issue with the human mind. When creating a graph, start very simple, just TITLE, YAXIS and DEF lines, and then add things one at a time to get what you want.

Ok, I took the changes out. restarted xymon, waited a half hour, put them back in, and it created the rrd file.
HOWEVER, it only put it in once, and no updates:

Where do I go look to figure out why the rrd file is not getting created?
I have a script that produces output like this with a test name of ‘ucf’:
green
ucf_threads : 14
And that is all I’m sending currently. At this point, it’s a simulated script and then number is between 1-100.
In xymonserver.cfg I have
TEST2RRD=”….,ucf=ncv” NCV_ucf="ucfthreads:GAUGE"
I have two servers. My production, and a test server, with this config, and the test server briefly created the rrd, then I renamed the test (from myg to ucf), c hanged the TEST2RRD and NCV_myg to NCV_ucf.
I’ve restarted xymon completely, and killed the xymond_rrd processes. Nothing shows up in rrd_status.log or rrd_data.log
All the machines are CentOS 6 running xymon 4.3.21. We have successfully got custom graphs working in the past, but no luck at this point. Ultimately, I believe the script will live on a RedHat 7 client. The xymon server will remain CentOS 6 for the forseeable future.

Yes this is a new install on Rhel 7.2, xymon 4.3.27 I haven't got any graphs, not in trends too. checked for showgraph.sh in cgi-bin , it doesn't exist there <Directory "/usr/lib/xymon/cgi-bin"> So what do I have to do now, and my rrd directory is also empty.

Where do I go look to figure out why the rrd file is not getting created?
I have a script that produces output like this with a test name of ‘ucf’:
green
ucf_threads : 14
And that is all I’m sending currently. At this point, it’s a simulated script and then number is between 1-100.
In xymonserver.cfg I have
TEST2RRD=”….,ucf=ncv” NCV_ucf="ucfthreads:GAUGE"
I have two servers. My production, and a test server, with this config, and the test server briefly created the rrd, then I renamed the test (from myg to ucf), c hanged the TEST2RRD and NCV_myg to NCV_ucf.
I’ve restarted xymon completely, and killed the xymond_rrd processes. Nothing shows up in rrd_status.log or rrd_data.log
All the machines are CentOS 6 running xymon 4.3.21. We have successfully got custom graphs working in the past, but no luck at this point. Ultimately, I believe the script will live on a RedHat 7 client. The xymon server will remain CentOS 6 for the forseeable future.

looks like rrdtool didn't install correctly or may be I am missing some prerequisites packages. Do you have any guide to install xymon? Or do you know what packages needs to be installed?

I recently followed this work-in-progress to set up a Xymon server on Centos 7 for a pro bono client.
https://centos.jordy.eu/centos-test/ [3]
It's about 98% complete/accurate. This installation is compliant with the general principles of package management in Centos/Red Hat.
