Hi Detlef,

No I don't see anything that's what confuses me. If something was wrong I would expect to see broken or empty graph or link or something under trends column but all looks like I haven't changed the config files at all.

Hi,

do You see a Link under TRENDS like "hobbit graph wlpub11" ? Your steps to graph the rrd staff are correct. I did the same steps.

My steps to create the rrd-Database are:

if ( not -f $RRD ) {

            RRDs::create($RRD, "-s 86400",
            "DS:sms:GAUGE:172800:0:U", "DS:email:GAUGE:172800:0:U",

"DS:rmi:GAUGE:172800:0:U", "DS:ws:GAUGE:172800:0:U", "DS:gesamt:GAUGE:172800:0:U", "RRA:MAX:0.5:1:14", "RRA:MAX:0.5:1:60", "RRA:MAX:0.5:1:730"); }

Hi,

First thanks for your reply I really appreciate your help. I did as you suggested but still no luck. Thinking maybe the rrd file is in wrong place or I have to include the full path to that file in the graph config file?

I had the same Problem. I changed the "DEF:... AVERAGE..." in "DEF:... MAX ...". And now it works fine. Every 24 Hours my rrd get a update.

Hi,

Since I haven't receive any response to the previous e-mail I'm including some more details here. This is what I have done till now but can't get any graph output from hobbit:

I have edited the following 3 files:

• *hobbitgraph.cfg* - tell hobbit how to create the graph from the rrd file

[wlpub11] TITLE EPUB92: Threads ebspap11 YAXIS Number DEF:execute=etech_thread81cmspServer11_cms.rrd:execute:AVERAGE LINE1.5:execute#FF0000:execute\\g

COMMENT:max\\:\\g
GPRINT:hogging:MAX:%2.0lf
COMMENT:average\\:\\g
GPRINT:hogging:AVERAGE:%2.0lf

• *hobbitserver.cfg* - tell hobbit to include the new graph for processing => add the new graph name to the GRAPHS line

GRAPHS="la,disk,inode,qtree,files,processes,memory,users,vmstat,iostat,tcp.http,tcp,ncv,netstat,ifstat,mrtg::1,ports,temperature,ntpstat,apache,bind,sendmail,mailq,socks,bea,iishealth,citrix,bbgen,bbtest,bbproxy,hobbitd,clock,lines,wlpub11"

• *bb-hosts* - add the new graph to the "trends" column for the apropriate host

#subparent SWIF-Public Weblogic Weblogic servers group-compress <font size="+1">Weblogic servers</font> 10.156.202.10 Weblogic8.1-ebspap11 # conn HIDEHTTP ebspap11-mgt.three.com.au:7011 TRENDS:*,wlpub11

So the idea is to get hobbit create the graph and put it under the trends column for the particular server but it seams it doesn't do anything since I can't see any graph or error messages in the log file. I have put the etech_thread81cmspServer11_cms.rrd file into /var/lib/hobbit/rrd/Weblogic8.1-ebspap11 folder. Just wondering if I'm missing something or just want to accomplish the impossible?

Hi all,

I was reading some posts about integrating external custom scripts into hobbit and was wondering is it possible to link existing rrd database files created by some other application and use hobbit for charting? If possible, what files do I need to eddit to make this work? The rrd file is created using rrdtool so another question would be about compatibility of the rrd file with the way the rrd files are being created in hobbit.

Thanks in advance for any help.

I wrote my own first shell script for monitoring NAS devices in our network.

In thsi case, I made it possible to see the RAID arrays and harddisk levels in hobbit. Cause of the name of the test (disk), I now get a lot of "hobbit graph disk" messages under the data of the disks in hobbit. I think, it is because hobbit try to display the data at the graph field.

I don't need to see the graphs for this test, so is there a way to turn it complete off?

Thanks

Hello

I put this in bb-hosts "213.181.102.219 mist.fjall.org # noconn ssh http://mist.fjall.org/".

But hobbit still seams to be pinging my host (that doesnt replay on icmp requests), did I misunderstand the docs?

don't you have another line with the same ip or dns name in your bb-hosts file ?

Yes, call it something other than "disk".
