mrtg xymon integration problem 🔗 link

Hi,
I have installed Xymon server on a CentOS 6 x64.
I wanted to integrate MRTG into it and i got an error.
After i add the below lines: 

# For Xymon integration
WorkDir: /var/lib/xymon/rrd
LogFormat: rrdtool

I get this error:

ERROR: could not find RRDs.pm. Use LibAdd: in mrtg.cfg to help mrtg find RRDs.pm

The problem is that i don't know where to find RRDs.pm. 
Regards.

Add the EPEL repo and install rrdtool-perl package.

[root at sentinel ~]# yum provides */RRDs.pm

rrdtool-perl-1.2.27-3.el5.x86_64 : Perl RRDtool bindings
Repo        : epel

Hi,
Thank you for the quick answer.
I have installed them and now i have some other problem...

When i run mrtg /etc/mrtg/mrtg.cfg i get the following error:


[root at micro2403 otpsw003]# mrtg /etc/mrtg/mrtg.cfg
WARN: found several copies of RRDs.pm in your path: /usr/lib64/perl5/, /usr/lib64/perl5 I will be using /usr/lib64/perl5/. This could be a problem if this is an old copy and you think I would be using a newer one!

I am trying to monitor the port gig0/3 of a Cisco Catalyst 2960G with the following mrtg.cfg config:

Target[mrtg.otpsw003.port3]: 3:public at otpsw003
Title[mrtg.otpsw003.port3]: Traffic
MaxBytes[mrtg.otpsw003.port3]: 1250000
Directory[mrtg.otpsw003.port3]: otpsw003 

I think i didn't choose the right interface name, but i don't know how to find out the name of it.


Regards,
Traian.

Hi,
I have installed a xymon client on a CentOS 6 x64 server.
Everything looks good except the fact that even the Xymon server receives data and its' page is OK(the client is there diplayed with its' short name) i have the same client displayed in Ghost Clients(this time with its' FQDN).
I have checked on the client and i have too many files in xymon/client/tmp folder.
It looks something like this:

-rw-rw-r-- 1 xymon xymon    41 Feb 22 13:17 logfetch.otpproxy1.cfg
-rw-rw-r-- 1 xymon xymon    41 Feb 22 13:17 logfetch.otpproxy1.status
-rw-r--r-- 1 root  root  35787 Feb 22 13:17 msg.otpproxy1.temenosgroup.com.txt
-rw-rw-r-- 1 xymon xymon 37183 Feb 22 13:17 msg.otpproxy1.txt
-rw-rw-r-- 1 xymon xymon   246 Feb 22 13:17 xymon_vmstat.otpproxy1.2637
-rw-rw-r-- 1 xymon xymon   246 Feb 22 13:14 xymon_vmstat.otpproxy1.temenosgroup.com.2597
-rw-r--r-- 1 root  root    246 Feb 22 13:17 xymon_vmstat.otpproxy1.temenosgroup.com.2681

It seems like the client is started al least twice....
How can I set it right?
Regards,
Traian.
