That might be a little dated...I've used these instructions successfully...

If your test doesn't run in the standard window, you may need to do something like

Did you add it to the "GRAPHS" section?  Did you create the graph definition?

Subject: [Xymon] RRD File for Graph not being created

Hello,

I have been troubleshooting this for a while. I have a script with a very simple output, example "cf-execd : 13.60". I have gone onto the local server that it will be run on, and added the appropriate lines to clientlaunch.cfg. I went on the server and modified xymonserver.cfg, adding "CFENGINE=ncv" to the end of the TEST2RRD line. (CFENGINE is the monitor name) I also added a new line on the file which states, "NCV_CFENGINE="cf-execd:GAUGE".

I then restarted the xymon services. However, the RRD file is not created. What am I doing wrong? This monitor is much more elaborate, but I dumbed it down to a single line to troubleshoot this issue, and it still isn't working.

Any ideas?
