Complete command would be "du -k+4". I should have said that. Sorry.

I tested what you said but it failed.

I had never heard of using +4 on du anyway, does this actually work??

[dir:/home/xymon] /usr/bin/du: invalid option -- + /usr/bin/du: invalid option -- 4 Try `/usr/bin/du --help' for more information.

Try "-k+4"

Hi,

I have installed xymon on centos5 from source.

For some reason the files and dirs are incorrect. My /home/xymon folder is 40MB but is only reported as 40k

I put DU="du -k" into the hobbitserver.cfg hoping to report the folder in the same measurements but it is not working.

Any ideas?

Thanks

I think there is some confusion here. I think Paul is trying to show the graph in MB not K. This should not be rocket science?

You should try to sort the output by defining DFSORT="-k+4"

Complete command would be df -k | sort -k+4

Worth trying.

Hi,

I have drilled down a little more and understand the graph is shown in KB and admit I was mis reading some of the data.

However when looking at roots mail I see the following:

[logfile:/var/spool/mail/root] type:100000 (file) mode:640 (-rw-r-----) linkcount:1 owner:0 (root) group:501 (xymon) size:99087 clock:1231790856 (2009/01/13-09:07:36) atime:1231790856 (2009/01/13-09:07:36) ctime:1231772532 (2009/01/13-04:02:12) mtime:1231772532 (2009/01/13-04:02:12)

I assume root is 99087 which is 90MB?

however when I perform a ls -lk I get: -rw-r----- 1 root xymon 97 Jan 13 04:02 root or ls -lh -rw-r----- 1 root xymon 97K Jan 13 04:02 root

I am confused why this is happening?

See my link for graph. http://img177.imageshack.us/my.php?image=hobbitgra

Hi all,

Does anybody have any idea why my stats are wrong on file reporting and how I can fix it?
