Hi all,
Im trying to build my own RRD graphs. I've done my shell-script already, and also I'm aware that I've got to modify hobbitgraph.cfg and hobbitserver.cfg.
But im not sure where should I put the --extra-script and --extra-tests options. Should I add another line to hobbitcgi.cfg ? If so, what would be the correct syntax?
Thanks,
Fabio

On the commandline for the hobbitd_larrd tool (ie. in hobbitlaunch.cfg)

Thanks for the previous reply but I still couldnt get the graph. Here is the full picture of what Ive done!
- Ive created the script that will collect the information:
|#!/bin/sh
|# Input parameters: Hostname, testname (column), and messagefile
|HOSTNAME="$1"
|TESTNAME="$2"
|FNAME="$3"
|
|#NumProcs
|
|if [ "$TESTNAME" = "NumProcs" ]
|then
| # Analyze the message we got
| numprocs=grep "^OK - " $FNAME | awk '{print $2}'
|
| # The RRD dataset definitions
| echo "DS:numprocs:GAUGE:600:0:1000"
|
| # The filename
| echo "numprocs.rrd"
|
| # The data
| echo "$numprocs"
|fi
|
|exit 0
- After that I`ve inserted the following on my hobbitlauch.cfg:
|--extra-script=/usr/local/hobbit/server/etc/customgraphs.sh --extra-test=Nu mProcs
on both [larrdstatus] and [larrddata] blocks.
Then, I added the test "NumProcs" into the LARRDS= on my hobbitserver.cfg
Finally I put this settings on my hobbitgraph.cfg
|[NumProcs] | TITLE Number of Processes Running | YAXIS Processes | DEF:numprocs=numprocs.rrd:numprocs:AVERAGE | LINE2:numprocs#00CCCC:Number of Processes | COMMENT:\n | GPRINT:numprocs:LAST: \: %5.1lf (cur) | GPRINT:numprocs:MAX: \: %5.1lf (max) | GPRINT:numprocs:MIN: \: %5.1lf (min) | GPRINT:numprocs:AVERAGE: \: %5.1lf (avg)\n
- Re-started hobbit, and the graph is not there.
Any help would be more then appreciated.
Thanks,
Fabio

Looks OK - but: Do you have some extension script running on the client that sends in a status- or data-message for a "NumProcs" column ? The extra-scripts are for custom tests you run, so that kind of has to be setup first.
I'm also wondering if you're actually duplicating some data that is already there. The default Unix- and Windows BB clients report the number of processes running on the host - it's already available if you click on the "trends" column, just look at the graph titled "Users and Processes".

I do have the script for my NumProcs monitor, on the hobbit console it shows:
|Tue Jun 7 12:28:31 BST 2005 |OK - 236 processes running
But again, no graph. Ive decided to start with a simple graph then move to a more complex one.
I cant see many things on the log files, apart from a few "2005-06-07 12:42:38 Unknown option : --larrd043" on bb-display.log
Anyone knows what the
"2005-06-07 12:42:38 Unknown option : --larrd043" on bb-display.log ?
Im still trying to produce my graph, but for some reason its not working. I wonder if is there anything else I could investigate. Any logs, outputs, etc.
Thanks

The larrd-specific options for bbgen were dropped during one of the beta-versions. Just remove that from the bbgen command in hobbitlaunch.cfg

Hi folks, Hi Henrik..
i am searching for an option to generate plaintext single service status availability report, as well done by "bb-replog.cgi", but using a mechanism which do it on a periodical basis. Something identical to "bbgen" reporting options, probably one i've overlooked yet.
Any help would be appreciated. :)

So basically you want the text-format output from bb-replog.cgi pre-generated for a list of host+service statuses, for a given period of time - correct?
It's fairly easy to do since the bb-replog.cgi tool already has all of the code needed to generate such a report; it already pre-builds these text-format reports when you generate the availability report.
Let me know if I understand you correctly, and putting in the necessary handles in bb-replog.cgi should be reasonably simple to do.
Regards, Henrik
