Objet : [hobbit] error creating rrd DS (invalid DS name)
I guess I missed something trying to add data collection for a test I created.
The test sends data like so:
afs-6,iastate,edu.afs green Wed Sep 7 16:42:25 CDT 2005 Instance fs, currently running normally.
Auxiliary status is: file server running. &green
calls waiting: 0 &green
I added ",afs=ncv" to the end of TEST2RRD and NCV_afs="Auxiliarystatusis=NONE,callswaiting=GAUGE"
in hobbitserver.cfg
I get this in rrd-status.log:
2005-09-07 15:41:21 RRD error creating /usr/pkg/hobbit/data/rrd/afs-6.iastate.edu/afs.rrd: Invalid DS name
As hobbit, I can touch this file to create it. Any ideas? Where are the constraints on DS names listed?
The constraints are in the rrdcreate doc : http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/rrdtool/doc/rrdcreate.en.html
There is a debug option (--debug) to most hobbit programs, so you can add this flag in hobbitlaunch.cfg and see if you get more infos about the rrdcreate.
In the hobbitd/do_rrd.c, you can find the error message at this line (around line 143 in my snaphsot): errprintf("RRD error creating %s: %s\n", filedir, rrd_get_error());
The error comes from the rrd_create two lines above.
And the "if (debug)" block beginning at line 128 shows the rrdcreate parameters.
Hope this'll help.
