Integrate rrd files into hobbit
Hi all,
After some time back to this problem again. I did some small changes to the
graph definition:
[wlpub11]
TITLE EPUB92 Threads ebspap11
YAXIS Number
DEF:execute=wlpub11.threads.rrd:execute:AVERAGE
DEF:idle=wlpub11.threads.rrd:idle:AVERAGE
DEF:hogging=wlpub11.threads.rrd:hogging:AVERAGE
LINE1.5:execute#FF0000:execute
GPRINT:execute:LAST:\\:%2.0lf
COMMENT:min\\:\\g
GPRINT:execute:MIN:%2.0lf
COMMENT:max\\:\\g
GPRINT:execute:MAX:%2.0lf
COMMENT:average\\:\\g
GPRINT:execute:AVERAGE:%2.0lf\n
LINE1.5:idle#0000FF:idle
GPRINT:idle:LAST:\\:%2.0lf
COMMENT:min\\:\\g
GPRINT:idle:MIN:%2.0lf
COMMENT:max\\:\\g
GPRINT:idle:MAX:%2.0lf
COMMENT:average\\:\\g
GPRINT:idle:AVERAGE:%2.0lf\n
LINE1.5:hogging#3FFF00:hogging
GPRINT:hogging:LAST:\\:%2.0lf
COMMENT:min\\:\\g
GPRINT:hogging:MIN:%2.0lf
COMMENT:max\\:\\g
GPRINT:hogging:MAX:%2.0lf
COMMENT:average\\:\\g
GPRINT:hogging:AVERAGE:%2.0lf\n
but all I can get now is broken graph link. This graph setting works in
shell script and I can get the image but doesn't work in hobbit. Am I
missing something in the syntax? Also as Detlef mentioned in one of his
previous responses why his graph works with max values and not with average
ones? The graph is being updated by an external custom script every 5
minutes.
The rrd database has been created as follows:
DS:execute:GAUGE:600:0:U \
DS:idle:GAUGE:600:0:U \
DS:hogging:GAUGE:600:0:U \
RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:288 \
RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:12:336 \
RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:24:732
Thanks,
Igor

Forgot to mention that after editing the files I restarted the hobbit server with "/etc/init.d/hobbit restart" since it's running on Debian box.

If something was wrong I would expect to see broken or empty graph or link or something under trends column but all looks like I haven't changed the config files at all.

Your steps to graph the rrd staff are correct. I did the same steps. My steps to create the rrd-Database are: if ( not -f $RRD ) { RRDs::create($RRD, "-s 86400", "DS:sms:GAUGE:172800:0:U", "DS:email:GAUGE:172800:0:U", "DS:rmi:GAUGE:172800:0:U", "DS:ws:GAUGE:172800:0:U", "DS:gesamt:GAUGE:172800:0:U", "RRA:MAX:0.5:1:14", "RRA:MAX:0.5:1:60", "RRA:MAX:0.5:1:730"); } *Von:* Igor Cicimov [mailto:user-5dcd3b15acde@xymon.invalid] *Gesendet:* Donnerstag, 2.

I did as you suggested but still no luck. Thinking maybe the rrd file is in wrong place or I have to include the full path to that file in the graph config file?

This is what I have done till now but can't get any graph output from hobbit: I have edited the following 3 files: - *hobbitgraph.cfg* - tell hobbit how to create the graph from the rrd file [wlpub11] TITLE EPUB92: Threads ebspap11 YAXIS Number DEF:execute=etech_thread81cmspServer11_cms.rrd:execute:AVERAGE LINE1.5:execute#FF0000:execute\\g \ GPRINT:execute:LAST:\\:%2.0lf \ COMMENT:min\\:\\g \ GPRINT:execute:MIN:%2.0lf \ COMMENT:max\\:\\g \ GPRINT:execute:MAX:%2.0lf \ COMMENT:average\\:\\g \ GPRINT:execute:AVERAGE:%2.0lf\\l \ DEF:idle=etech_thread81cmspServer11_cms.rrd:idle:AVERAGE LINE1.5:idle#0000FF:idle\\g \ GPRINT:idle:LAST:\\:%2.0lf \ COMMENT:min\\:\\g \ GPRINT:idle:MIN:%2.0lf \ COMMENT:max\\:\\g \ GPRINT:idle:MAX:%2.0lf \ COMMENT:average\\:\\g \ GPRINT:idle:AVERAGE:%2.0lf\\l \ DEF:hogging=etech_thread81cmspServer11_cms.rrd:hogging:AVERAGE LINE1.5:hogging#3FFF00:hogging\\g \ GPRINT:hogging:LAST:\\:%2.0lf \ COMMENT:min\\:\\g \ GPRINT:hogging:MIN:%2.0lf \ COMMENT:max\\:\\g \ GPRINT:hogging:MAX:%2.0lf \ COMMENT:average\\:\\g \ GPRINT:hogging:AVERAGE:%2.0lf - *hobbitserver.cfg* - tell hobbit to include the new graph for processing => add the new graph name to the GRAPHS line GRAPHS="la,disk,inode,qtree,files,processes,memory,users,vmstat,iostat,tcp.http,tcp,ncv,netstat,ifstat,mrtg::1,ports,temperature,ntpstat,apache,bind,sendmail,mailq,socks,bea,iishealth,citrix,bbgen,bbtest,bbproxy,hobbitd,clock,lines,wlpub11" - *bb-hosts* - add the new graph to the "trends" column for the apropriate host #subparent SWIF-Public Weblogic Weblogic servers group-compress <font size="+1">Weblogic servers</font> 10.156.202.10 Weblogic8.1-ebspap11 # conn HIDEHTTP ebspap11-mgt.three.com.au:7011 TRENDS:*,wlpub11 So the idea is to get hobbit create the graph and put it under the trends column for the particular server but it seams it doesn't do anything since I can't see any graph or error messages in the log file. I have put the etech_thread81cmspServer11_cms.rrd file into /var/lib/hobbit/rrd/Weblogic8.1-ebspap11 folder. Just wondering if I'm missing something or just want to accomplish the impossible?

If possible, what files do I need to eddit to make this work? The rrd file is created using rrdtool so another question would be about compatibility of the rrd file with the way the rrd files are being created in hobbit. Thanks in advance for any help. Igor
