Custom graphing (with ncv) is really a two step process. The first and
most important is collecting the data into an rrd, which is simple and
done by adding your COLUMNNAME=ncv to TEST2RRD and correctly passing
data back to hobbit:)
I used "rrdtool dump foo.rrd > tmp.xml" to verify that it was actually
collecting some data.
My rrd file isn't even being updated. That leads me to believe that
something in the configuration process is missing or wrong.
I would venture to guess that as long as your test/column names stay
the same, there will be no problems in switching from --extra-tests to
ncv.
The second step, of course, is actually graphing it using data from
the rrd. I found this to be the most difficult step, if only because I
skim documentation - I don't read unless I'm desperate. Again, I'm
going out on a limb to say as long as your datasources/testnames/Y
values are all the same, your graph configuration should work post-ncv
conversion.
Good luck
Thanks.
