Hi,

I using Xymon to monitor a postfix mail server, and want to monitor the different mail queues on it.

I have found this script:

https://wiki.xymonton.org/doku.php/monitors:postfix

I have the data comming from the mail server to Xymon server:

Mails active: 3 amount equal to last measure. Mails bouncing: 0 amount equal to last measure. Mails in deferred State: 63 amount equal to last measure. Corrupt Mails: 0 amount equal to last measure. Incoming Mails: 0 amount equal to last measure.

But I have not succeded in getting the graph to work, I have follow the steps on the wiki site above, and I have also gone though the help file, about costum graphs, in Xymon web site.

In xymonserver.cfg have I added:

• 'postfix=ncv' to the TEST2RRD string
• NCV_postfix="*:GAUGE" Hi Kim

I htink you may have forgotten to ad "postfix" to the GRAPHS definition line in the xymonserver.cfg

The GRAPHS variable is right after the TEST2RRD variable in a default xymonserver.cfg file.

Hope this helps!

Bill

I have added that now, but it did not fix it.

I do understand that the GRAPH string is only to controle what is shown in the trend view.

Thanks for the reply.

Kim

The string length did the fix.

Thanks for all the replies.

The instructions for the script say to use SPLITNCV_postfix instead of NCV_postfix. The difference is that you would get one file called postfix.rrd instead of 5 files called postfix,mails_active.rrd, postfix,mails_bouncing.rrd, etc.

When not splitting, the text before the colon is used as the DS name, and you have to keep that to under 19 (I think) chars, in which case "mails_in_deferred_state" breeches that constraint, and so the RRD module is probably rejecting all data. When splitting, the text becomes part of the filenames, and instead "lambda" is used as the DS name in each.
