Check where you have $INSTALLDIR/data/rrd on your hobbit server and you will find these rrd files for each server in their own directory. They are NOT in text format and you need to use the rrd tools to access the raw data. See the section on custom graphs for an example on how to dump one of these files.

Hi all,

In Xymon normaly we can see some statistics in each graphs , example for load average on last 48 hours, we have : max min average.

My question : Is Xymon or Rrdtool store these results in a text format

file or it is "dynamic" ?

My conf is Solaris 10 / Xymon 4.2.3 and Rrdtool 1.2.9

Thanks

Best Regards,

FB Xymon collects the information from, in your case, Solaris. Then it stores the data in an rrd (round robin database) for later display on a graph.
