Hi !
I'm new to this ML, and I'm almost a script dev (almost is the most
accurate word in this mail).
I created a script to monitor game servers activity. It reports the
number
of player on a server.
The ouput is formated as it :
&global_color $machine.$test <many words>
&color server1 is OK|NOK Players: <INTEGER>
I followed the ~(hobbit|xymon)/help/howtograph.html help file, and i get
my
graph when I monitor 1 game server. My script supports several game
servers
monitoring, but I can't find a way to have graph for all of them, like
the
http tests do (1 test, many URL tested, and one graph with all URL on
it).
Can someone help me ?
As long as you will not be changing the number of game servers you
monitor,
send a status message like this:
&global_color $machine.$test <many words>
&color server1 is OK|NOK
server1_players: <INTEGER>
&color server2 is OK|NOK
server2_players: <INTEGER>
Make sure you have a new line after the last entry. Remove any rrd files
if
you have changed the number of servers you want to graph.

After some tests and researches, I think the best way for me to manage my
graphs is to use several RRD files for 1 test, each containing data for one
of my value. I read the doc :
http://hobbitmon.sourceforge.net/docs/man8/hobbitd_rrd.8.html
But I'm not sure to understand how I could manage this :
"If you want to store the data in multiple RRD files, the script can just
print out more sequences of data-set definitions, RRD filenames and RRD
values. If the data-set definitions are identical to the previous
definition, you need not print the data-set definitions again - just print
a new RRD filename and value. "
Can someone help me about it ?
