Hi,

How can I get SPLITNCV data to be drawn in seperate graphs not in one.

For isntance I am going to track:

value1 : a value2 : b value3 : c valuex : x (count of "values" will change randomly)

then i will get following rrd files (each tracking one value)

test,value1.rrd test,value2.rrd test,value3,rrd test,valuex,rrd

and with following hobbitgraph definition

[test] FNPATTERN test,value(.*).rrd TITLE test YAXIS TEST DEF:p at RRDIDX@=@RRDFN@:lanbda:AVERAGE LINE1:p at RRDIDX@#@COLOR@:@RRDPARAM@ aa

I am getting one graph with three(or more) lines, but I want to get three(or more) seperate graphs with one line each.

Thanks!

Hi,

You could define graphs as it : [value1] TITLE Whatever you want YAXIS value1_data_type DEF:VALUE1=test,value1.rrd:lambda:AVERAGE LINE1:VALUE1#000088:value1_data_type

repeat the operation for each test,valueX.rrd file

I have static entries, so I wouldn't mind seeing someone's working example because I still cannot get this to work. I am using xymon 4.2.3 on a Redhat box, RRD 1.2.30.

I can also see that SPLITNCV is some how extracting a line out of my status message in addition to my data message which is a bit odd? Perhaps it extracts the data out of the status message and NOT the data message so perhaps I am just confused?

The line it is extracting out of the status message is in the form: '&green 0 blah blah...'. There is another line above that in the same format that it ignores so it is odd?

It creates an rrd like this:

<test/column name>,74_blah_blah...blah_blah.rrd

I'm doing what you're after using a custom script instead of SPLITNCV, but the two are closely related, and I think this works for what you are doing.

In the file hobbitserver.cfg, add your test name to the GRAPHS entry followed by "::1" i.e. GRAPHS="la,disk.....,lines,ifmib::1,test::1"

This sets the limit of the number of traces per graph, so set it to "test::2" if e.g. you wanted two traces per graph

BTW, I assume there is a typo in your DEF: line below, it should be lambda not lanbda

Graham,

Just an FYI, I did find your previous posts very helpful! I certainly was able to use something like what Gatis has above to get a single multi-graph on the specific test column and multiple single graphs under trends. But can you get multiple single graphs under the specific test column?

Hmmm.... yes, I've just tried testing this on a SPLITNCV test, and am seeing what you describe. I do get single lines per graph on the specific test display for custom script handling though. From brief perusal of the sources, I've not yet found why it's different between custom script and standard NCV handling.

(Scratching head smiley)

Graham

Well, Graham I tried to see if I could get custom scripts to create a single graph for each status line but no luck. I think we just need a really good tutorial. Since I only have three values to graph, I think I will just break out my script to create 3 xymon columns guaranting a single graph per value.

Thanks for all the help regardless!

In the GRAPHS variable in hobbitserver.cfg, instead of adding "test" to the list, add "test::1".

Regards, Buchan

Yes. I have successfully got that to work but that gets the single graphs ONLY under the 'Trends' column, correct? Does that mean there is no way to get single graphs under your specific test column?
