I'm trying to make the BIND graph appear on the trends page. I have the following coded in bb-hosts for the dns server:
192.168.210.11 dns1 # dns ftp TRENDS:*,bind
The DNS test does work. I've tried variations of the TRENDS setting, but none seem to work.
Thanks.

The graph def references a bind.rrd file, but the default dns test just generates a tcp.dns.rrd file. Haven't done this myself, but I think you need to use the dns=TYPE:lookup tests to get that data.

By default it looks itself up, but I changed it to a NS lookup and no rrd file.

Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but I just looked at do_bind.c file in the latest snapshot and I know why bind.rrd isn't being generated:
int do_bind_rrd(char *hostname, char *testname, char *msg, time_t tstamp) { errprintf("bind rrd not implemented\n"); return -1; }

Absolutely correct. The "bind" graphs are fed by the LARRD bind-larrd.pl script, and since noone has complained until now, I was fairly sure it wasn't being used by anyone.
The "dns" test in Hobbit just tracks the response time of your DNS server, not the performance metrics that the bind-larrd.pl script monitors.
Regards, Henrik
Definitely not a complaint. I just figured that I would take a look at it to see what it graphed. It was only a curiousity, nothing that I really needed.

That doesn't mean that noone *wants* to use it ....
We would like to be able to graph the bind performance stats, but don't want larrd ...
I may just do an extension script for use with ncv (and allow the hobbit user to trigger a stats dump via a separate dns key, or via sudo).

If you do write a script to collect the data, please share it. I seem to recall now that one reason I didn't implement the bind-larrd data was that it was for an older version of BIND, and the current statistics reports were very different.

These scripts work fine (BIND 8, 9) If you want i have also the larrd script to graph DNS query rate, regards

We would like to be able to graph the bind performance stats, but don't want
larrd ...
I may just do an extension script for use with ncv (and allow the hobbit user
to trigger a stats dump via a separate dns key, or via sudo).
If you do write a script to collect the data, please share it. I seem to
recall now that one reason I didn't implement the bind-larrd data was
that it was for an older version of BIND, and the current statistics
reports were very different.

That appears pretty clear to me! :)
That message isn't appearing in any of the files in /var/log/hobbit.
Thanks, Tom.
