Hi,
       I have a test on a machine titled 'AMOS'. Xymon
server is 4.2.3.

       It's a simple script, that receives info from an
automation from within a program. It has a single data point,
and it's output looks like this:


rows : 20

$Id: hbtStatus,v 1.15 2011/02/07 21:03:28 root Exp $


       I went into the script and changed the colons in the
time to &#58;

       In hobbitserver.cfg, I changed the TEST2RRD line to:

TEST2RRD="cpu=la,disk,inode,qtree,memory,$PINGCOLUMN=tcp,http=
tcp,dns=tcp,dig=tcp,time=ntpstat,vmstat,iostat,netstat,temperatu> re,apache,bind,sendmail,mailq,nmailq=mailq,socks,bea,iishealth
,citrix,bbgen,bbtest,bbproxy,hobbitd,files,procs=processes,por
ts,clock,lines,ops,stats,cifs,JVM,JMS,HitCache,Session,JDBCCon
n,ExecQueue,JTA,TblSpace,RollBack,MemReq,InvObj,snapmirr,snapl
ist,snapshot,AMOS=ncv,if_load=devmon,temp=devmon"
       and at the end (near the end) added:

NCV_AMOS="rows:GAUGE"


       Then I killed hobbitd_rrd (both instances). I waited
10-15 minutes, but no rrd file. I restarted xymon completely.
Still no rrd file.
       I'm not able to find anything in any log file about
what's happening.

       Any ideas?
These rae the two paths used to receive and generate rrd files

hobbitd_channel --> status --> hobbitd_rrd -> rrd files
hobbitd_channel --> data --> hobbitd_rdd --> rrd files

Use hobbitd_capture to see if are receiving any rrd data, from that
host, through either of the two channels. If you are sending it
through status then
look under status channel and so on and so forth.
I let 'hobbitd_capture --hosts=<machine> --tests=AMOS' run for an hour. No output.

The script is running every 15 minutes.
