I finally figured out that I made a typo for my hobbitlaunch.cfg file. Can you help me get the graphing working too? I never done it before, and mostly relied on the server being able to do that.

Hmm... I just downloaded the current bb-mysqlstatus.tar.gz from deadcat.net, diffed bb-mysqlstat.sh against the one I have running on a hobbit server, and the only change I made was to replace VALIDMYSQLUSER & VALIDMYSQLPASSWORD.

Nuts! I've replaced and copied the data you pasted here, but I'm still having now luck getting the rrd graph for it to appear! L I just tried upgrading to the latest snapshot of hobbit too, to see if it would get me lucky. Oh well,

Thanks for trying Ralph!

Hi,

I've done all of that and I didn't get it to work ! Is there another thing to do ? I'm looking at the man-page (hobbitd_rrd) but it's the same example ! I put the line NCV_mysql="Uptime:NONE,Queriespersecondavg:GAUGE" into hobbitserver.cfg but what can I do to have the corresponding graph appear in "trends" ? Thanks a lot for your help !

Hi Thomas,

We have the mysql monitoring working since yesterday and yes, this was painfull to set up for us too ;-)

There is a good reference "How to" (howtograph.html) in the help dir. of your Hobbit installation.

Here below the necessary configuration steps using snapshot of 31 mai.

1. Modify bb-mysqlstat.sh

The status $MYSQLADMIN returned by the original script is not suitable for the NCV module. You have to modify it to return Name:value pairs each on a single line. After extracting the values from $MYSQLADMIN (awk), we send this to the Hobbit server:

 $BB $BBDISP "status $MACHINE.$TEST $COLOR `date` - $STATUS

$UPTIME $THREADS $QUESTIONS $SLOWQUERIES $OPENS $FLUSHTABLES $OPENTABLES $QUERIESPERSECONDAVG "

2. Get clientlaunch (hobbitlaunch if your on the server) to run the script

[mysql] ENVFILE $HOBBITCLIENTHOME/etc/hobbitclient.cfg CMD $HOBBITCLIENTHOME/ext/bb-mysqlstat.sh LOGFILE $HOBBITCLIENTHOME/logs/bb-bb-mysqlstat.log INTERVAL 5m

3. Check that the script data arrives in Hobbit

After a few minutes, a mysql column should appear on your Hobbit view of this host.

4. Arrange for the data to be collected into an RRD file

Modify the TEST2RRD for mysql and set the RRD datatype for the NCV module used for mysql in the NCV_mysql variable.

TEST2RRD="cpu=la,disk,<...lots more stuff...>,hobbitd,mysql=ncv NCV_mysql="*:GAUGE"

5. Check that the RRD collects data

You can use "rrdtool dump ~hobbit/data/rrd/HOSTNAME/mysql.rrd" or "rrdtool fetch ~hobbit/data/rrd/HOSTANME/mysql.rrd AVERAGE" to see what collected.

$ rrdtool fetch /soft/pub/BB/hobbit/data/rrd/deca/mysql.rrd AVERAGE Uptime Threads Questions Slowqueries Opens Flushtables Opentables Queriespersecondavg

1149067800: NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN ... ... 1149153300: 1.7361796133e+06 1.2386666667e+01 1.3905225373e+07 2.7000000000e+01 8.3400000000e+02 1.0000000000e+00 1.2100000000e+02 8.0089200000e+00 1149153600: 1.7364796000e+06 1.2200000000e+01 1.3911530100e+07 2.7000000000e+01 8.3400000000e+02 1.0000000000e+00 1.2100000000e+02 8.0113000000e+00 1149153900: 1.7367795867e+06 1.3826666667e+01 1.3915204080e+07 2.7000000000e+01 8.3400000000e+02 1.0000000000e+00 1.2100000000e+02 8.0122933333e+00 1149154200: NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN 1149154500: NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN NaN

6. Set up a graph definition

If your are interested in tracking the active threads, cut and paste the [mysqlthread] section of hobbitgraph.cfg and give it the [mysql] tag.

Refresh the status page in your browser, and the graph should show up.

7. Add the graph to the collection of graphs on the trends column

If you want the graph included with the other graphs on the trends column, you must add it to the GRAPHS setting in the ~hobbit/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg file.

GRAPHS="la,disk,<... lots more ...>,bbproxy,hobbitd,mysql"

Save the file, and when you click on the trends column you should see the mysql graph at the bottom of the page.

8 Optional: add more mysql graphs to the trends column

In bb-hosts, you can set TRENDS for displaying -here beside mysql- other mysql-graphs defined in hobbitgraph.cfg.

Example definitions in hobbitgraph.cfg:

[mysqlslow] DEF:slow=mysql.rrd:Slowqueries:AVERAGE TITLE MySQL Slow Queries YAXIS # LINE2:slow#FF0000:Slow Queries GPRINT:slow:LAST: \: %5.1lf (cur) GPRINT:slow:MAX: \: %5.1lf (max) GPRINT:slow:MIN: \: %5.1lf (min) GPRINT:slow:AVERAGE: \: %5.1lf (avg)\n [mysqlqueries] DEF:quer=mysql.rrd:Queriespersecondavg:AVERAGE TITLE MySQL Queries Per Second Average YAXIS # LINE2:quer#0000FF:Queries Per Second Average GPRINT:quer:LAST: \: %5.1lf (cur) GPRINT:quer:MAX: \: %5.1lf (max) GPRINT:quer:MIN: \: %5.1lf (min) GPRINT:quer:AVERAGE: \: %5.1lf (avg)\n

Example bb-hosts entry:

1.2.3.4 HOSTNAME # TRENDS:*,mysql:mysql|mysqlslow|mysqlqueries

Hope this helps.
