What I found on my system was if I did not add this to the GRAPHS= section it would not generate the graphs on the test page. Also make sure devmon::2 is in the Graphs section.

I have found the products are not completely stable. I had to pick and chose what graphs I wanted. If I had to many Devmon based graphs it would break one or two others. I only discovered this when adding my own tests to devmon. If you run what ships to it and make the additions as shown above it should run.

Also you may need to the CGI_SVC_OPTS setting in the cgioptions.cfg file. Here is a sample of what I have added:

svcstatus.cgi options for a normal (current) status display

CGI_SVC_OPTS="--env=$XYMONENV --no-svcid --history=top --multigraphs=disk,if_load,itp_msu,if_dsc,temp"

For this one, most likely your TEST2RRD does not contain the correct 'if_load=devmon' and 'temp=devmon' values, although these are defaults?

I've also run into the GRAPHS= quirk where a graph won't appear on it's status page until it's added to GRAPHS= (for a custom graph I have).

Since GRAPHS= is commented as being for the trends page and not for status pages, I would think this to be a bug. But, I wasn't able to find a bug report for it. Should there be?

(I'm using Xymon 4.3.0-0.20101114.beta3 on CentOS 5.5.)

So i finally figured it out.

Since i moved over everything manually i missed one file.

I updated rrddefinitions.cfg and essentially it was working i just couldn't see it.

I had not updated the graph.cfg file once i added the info for if_load and temp it worked ((DOH))

Well at least this won't be bothering me throughout the long weekend.

Quick question - when you say "here are my rrddefinitons for the above", did you put those into server/etc/graphs.cfg, or server/etc/rrddefinitions.cfg??

The rrddefinitions.cfg file is read into a structure that gets handed to rrdtool to create the rrd file if it doesn't exist. All that wants is things that would get passed to "rrdtool create" and it doesn't want a "-l 0" option.

The graphs.cfg file is the place where you describe how to generate the graphs when the cgi program is called to display them.
