Hi,

I am trying to create new custom graph.

I am getting the following data in "status" and "data" channels under
iostat -

c0d0p7-rps:0.00
c0d0p7-wps:15.01
c0d0p1-rps:0.00
c0d0p1-wps:0.00
c0d0p10-rps:0.00
c0d0p10-wps:4.60

I have added a record to hobbitgraph.cfg -

[iostat]
        FNPATTERN iostat(.*).rrd
        TITLE Disk IO
        YAXIS % Full
        DEF:p at RRDIDX@=@RRDFN@:pct:AVERAGE
        LINE2:p at RRDIDX@#@COLOR@:@RRDPARAM@
        -u 100
        -l 0
        GPRINT:p at RRDIDX@:LAST: \: %5.1lf (cur)
        GPRINT:p at RRDIDX@:MAX: \: %5.1lf (max)
        GPRINT:p at RRDIDX@:MIN: \: %5.1lf (min)
        GPRINT:p at RRDIDX@:AVERAGE: \: %5.1lf (avg)\n

I have added the iostat to TEST2RRD and GRAPHS in hobbitserver.cfg.

I have added a record to hobbitlaunch.cfg -

[rrdstatus]
        ENVFILE
/clalapp/hobbit_monitor/hobbit_server/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg NEEDS
hobbitd
        CMD hobbitd_channel --channel=status
--log=$BBSERVERLOGS/rrd-status.log hobbitd_rrd --rrddir=$BBVAR/rrd
--extra-test=i ostat

# "rrddata" updates RRD files with information that arrives as "data"
messages. # If you want RRD graphs of your monitoring BB data, then you
want to run this.

[rrddata]
        ENVFILE
/clalapp/hobbit_monitor/hobbit_server/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg NEEDS
hobbitd
        CMD hobbitd_channel --channel=data  
--log=$BBSERVERLOGS/rrd-data.log hobbitd_rrd --rrddir=$BBVAR/rrd
--extra-test=ios tat


I have also added iostat to bb-hosts.

Unfortunately I am not getting the RRD graphs.

Any idea/suggestion what could be the problem?

Any help/suggestion would be appreciated.
I assume you are wanting to have these rrd files generated by the ncv handler, 
in which case you also need to:

-add ncv to GRAPHS (so GRAPHS should include both iostat and ncv)
-add "iostat=ncv" to TEST2RRD (instead of just "iostat")
-add a line that looks something like this:
ncv_iostat="c0d0p7-rps:GAUGE,c0d0p7-wps:GAUGE,c0d0p1-rps:GAUGE,c0d0p1-wps:GAUGE,c0d0p10-rps:GAUGE,c0d0p10-wps:GAUGE

in hobbitserver.cfg

Regards,
Buchan
