Not sure if this is a bug with RRD, or a change in the way RRD draws the
trends graphs, but after the below YUM transaction (CentOS 5.5, Xymon
4.2.3-1), all of my graphs are now missing text (e.g.
http://imgur.com/n8AGe.png).
Can anyone venture a guess as to why? Bug in RRD or in Xymon?
First, you need to find out which RRD library Xymon ends up
using. Run an 'ldd $BBHOME/bin/hobbitgraph.cgi' and see whether
it points to the 1.2.18 or 1.4.4 version of librrd.
My guess is that it uses the 1.2.18 version - it should,
because that's probably the version you have compiled Xymon
with. If it points to the new version, you could try re-
compiling Xymon and see if that helps.
You can also try running rrdtool from the command line.
Something like this should generate a graph for the "ping"
test response times:
rrdtool graph test.png -s 'now-48h' -e now -t 'Ping times' \
'DEF:p1=/home/xymon/data/rrd/myserver/tcp.conn.rrd:sec:AVERAGE' \
'LINE2:p1#00FF00'
(Adjust the filename in the "DEF" setting to match whatever
tcp.conn.rrd file you have for a server).
If the graph in "test.png" has the same problem, then it's
an RRDtool problem.
