Hi,

I am trying to get larrd to graph external data from a script and I think I have everything setup but there doesn't appear to be any data going into the rrd files. The logs seem fine and there are no error messages etc that seem to help. The graphs are on the page but just not getting data into them.

Can someone give me a pointer of how to check the data source etc or what I should Check and look at ?

I haven't added the scripts to the larrddata as my BB messages use status.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Ger.

hobbitlaunch.cfg entries

[larrdstatus] ENVFILE /usr/lib/hobbit/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg NEEDS hobbitd CMD hobbitd_channel --channel=status --log=$BBSERVERLOGS/larrd-status.lo g hobbitd_larrd --rrddir=$BBVAR/rrd --extra-script=/usr/lib/hobbit/server/ext/la rrd-ext.sh --extra-tests=clients

[clients] ENVFILE /usr/lib/hobbit/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg NEEDS hobbitd CMD $BBHOME/ext/clients.sh LOGFILE $BBSERVERLOGS/clients.log INTERVAL 5m

RRD script larrd-ext.sh The script is generating data as when I uncomment the echo commands I get the following data into the tmp file.

/usr/lib/hobbit/server/tmp/rrd_msg_13208 clients kbwan3 19

19 is the output that the rrd files should be receiving and graphing.

#!/bin/sh

Input parameters: Hostname, testname (column), and messagefile

HOSTNAME="$1" TESTNAME="$2" FNAME="$3"

#echo "$FNAME" > /tmp/hobbit.$HOSTNAME #echo "$TESTNAME" >> /tmp/hobbit.$HOSTNAME #echo "$HOSTNAME" >> /tmp/hobbit.$HOSTNAME

if [ "$TESTNAME" = "clients" ] then # Analyze the message we got CLIENTS=grep "connected" $FNAME | awk '{print $14}'

    # The RRD dataset definitions
    echo "DS:clients:GAUGE:300:0:U"

    # The filename
    echo "clients.rrd"

    # The data
    echo "$CLIENTS"

echo "$CLIENTS" >> /tmp/hobbit.$HOSTNAME
