Jef,
Look at your garaph definition :-
you have a space in LINE2 > open threads
and you have defined (DEF) threadcount but are trying to graph "open".
HTH,
Chris

Subject: [Xymon] custom graphs problem
Hi All,
After half a day searching for the problem, why my custom graph
for my test isn't showing properly in xymon, I'm reaching out to you
guys.
I have googled quite a bit but none of the explanations and/or
suggestions (which I all tried) are working for me.
It is probably something stupid I'm missing or doing wrong but
I'm not able to put my finger on it.
Version: Xymon: 4.3.7
Rrd version: rrdtool-1.2.12-13.2
Problem:
I have a custom scripts, that runs about every 5 min, that gives
following output in xymon: (the open threads line shows as a separate
line in the source html)
The number of open threads can vary from 0-500.
Hostname - ThreadCount
Mon Mar 26 15:48:05 CEST 2012
open threads : 41
Status unchanged in 4 hours, 35 minutes
Status message received from xx.xxx.xxx.xxx
I added the necessary in xymonserver.cfg and it looks like this:
TEST2RRD="cpu=la,disk,inode,qtree,memory,$PINGCOLUMN=tcp,http=tcp,
<......more.....>,ThreadCount=ncv, <......more.....>,xymond"
NCV_ThreadCount="openthreads:GAUGE"
GRAPHS="la,disk, <......more.....>,ncv,
<......more.....>,ThreadCount"
I added the required to graphs.cfg and it looks like this:
[ThreadCount]
TITLE ThreadsCount Info
YAXIS Threads
DEF:threadcount=ThreadCount.rrd:openthreads:AVERAGE
LINE2:threadcount#0000FF:open
threads
COMMENT:\n
GPRINT:open:LAST:open threads \:
%5.1lf%s (cur)
GPRINT:open:MAX: \: %5.1lf%s
(max)
GPRINT:open:MIN: \: %5.1lf%s
(min)
GPRINT:open:AVERAGE: \: %5.1lf%s
(avg)\n
Below is the upper most part of a rrdtool dump of the rrd file
that gets created succefully. (ThreadCount.rrd):
<!-- Round Robin Database Dump -->
<rrd>
<version> 0003
</version>
<step> 300
</step> <!-- Seconds -->
<lastupdate>
1332770292 </lastupdate> <!-- 2012-03-26 15:58:12 CEST -->
<ds>
<name> openthreads </name>
<type> GAUGE </type>
<minimal_heartbeat> 600 </minimal_heartbeat>
<!-- PDP Status -->
<last_ds> UNKN </last_ds>
<value> 7.8720000000e+03 </value>
<unknown_sec> 0 </unknown_sec>
</ds>
.....
I tried several stuff to change the output of my script
(open_threads, openthreads), but that changed nothing. (I did restart
xymon numerous times after removing the created rrd files)
Per info: I started with following site:

All suggestions are appreciated.
Regards,
Jef
