these three tests and the ping test. Now all the graphs show is the
value for ping.

Any messages in /var/log/hobbit/rrd-status.log ?

Could you show me the output from "ls -l ~hobbit/data/rrd/HOSTNAME" ?

Are the graphs missing from both the individual status view (e.g. the
"smtp" detailed status should have a graph at the bottom), and from
the combined view on the "trends" page ? Or just one of them ?

Nothing unusual in there.

And the files are being updated.


Could you send me (directly, not to the list) the output from
  bb 127.0.0.1 "hobbitdboard host=HOSTNAME fields=msg"
as well as the RRD files for this host ?


When viewing the detailed status for e.g. ldap or smtp, do you 
get a graph image that is empty, or no image at all ?

Henrik,

I have noticed that I am starting to have similar problems, however they
are with the memory graphs and when I try to do bb 127.0.0.1
"hobbitdboard host=HOSTNAME fields=msg"  (replacing HOSTNAME with the
hostname) I get the following error:

bb: Can't open 127.0.0.1

Any ideas??

Thanks,

Try using your actual IP address, rather than 127.0.0.1.

I don't know which "bb" command you're using, but that error message 
does not look like anything that I wrote in the Hobbit "bb" utility.
In fact, I checked and
   henrik at osiris:~/hobbit$ grep -i "can.t open" */*.c
finds no matches in my Hobbit sources.

A connect-error should give you either 
   "connect to bbd failed - <OS errortext>" 
or
   "Could not connect to bbd@<some more text>"

I think those two observations are un-related. Are your memory RRD files
being updated ? If not, are there any errors in the rrd-status.log file?
If you run (as the hobbit user) 
   bbcmd hobbitd_channel --channel=status grep -A 10 "^@@.*|memory|"
do any memory status updates appear for these hosts, and what do they
look like ?

Henrik

I was using an old bb command from my previous bb installation, I found
the correct one and when I use it all it gives me is about 7 lines of
blank space.  The rrd files seem to be updating, but I am getting an
error in my rrd-status.log file

2006-01-06 07:24:20 RRD error updating
/usr/local/hobbit/data/rrd/HOSTNAME/tcp.ftp.rrd from 134.48.22.240:
illegal attempt to update using time 1136553860 when last update time is
1136553860 (minimum one second step)

And this keeps repeating in the past

The messages that are coming through using the bbcmd listener look like:
