Hi,
I'm trying to follow the Help -> Custom Graphs instructions as follows: I've written a script to collect data, asked hobbitclient to run it regularly.

In addition to the above, after enableing --debug for the rrd I get this in the log: 2009-03-20 17:18:36 hobbitd_rrd: Got message 172312 @@status#172312|1237529916.645344|xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx||hostname.domain.com|temp|1237531716|green||green|1237424990|0||0||1237529620 2009-03-20 17:18:36 startpos 807580, fillpos 807580, endpos -1 2009-03-20 17:18:36 RRD update param 00: 'rrdupdate' 2009-03-20 17:18:36 RRD update param 01: '/var/lib/xymon/rrd/hostname.domain.com/temp.rrd' 2009-03-20 17:18:36 RRD update param 02: '-t' 2009-03-20 17:18:36 RRD update param 03: 'sda:sdb' 2009-03-20 17:18:36 RRD update param 04: '1237529916:39:39' So, to me, it looks like it should be working properly.... However, even this happens:
rrdupdate temp.rrd --template sda:sdb N:39:39 rrdtool dump temp.rrd |grep last_ds <last_ds> UNKN </last_ds> <last_ds> UNKN </last_ds> So manually updating the RRD doesn't seem to work either....
Any suggestions would be very helpful Thanks, Adam -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAknDNyYACgkQGyoxogrTyiX7qQCgmYinV+DtRRlXApKBV6x7JxnC lX0AoMVtzNC+s1L4Nob+izm1wQAEIXNw =UQl6 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Re-started the hobbit rrd processes, and eventually also re-started xymon completely.
If you are getting rrd files, there is no need to restart xymon.
rrdtool dump shows this:
What does 'rrdtool fetch temp.rrd AVERAGE' give?
So, for some reason the values are not getting into the rrd files....
Note, I found that I previously had an entry in TEST2RRD for temp=devmon, so I have removed that and deleted all the rrd files (for temp) so that they would be re-created.
Did you have temp.*.rrd files before you made this ncv-based test? If so, they will be broken now (and it would have been better to use a different test name).

Yes, but since I wasn't getting the answer I wanted I thought I'd re-start just to be sure :)

No, and I don't (never have) use devmon.... I can only assume it was there by default.... I'm still getting last_ds as NaN, but the above fetch AVERAGE looks like some sort of valid data ??
