Hi-

I am trying to create a custom graph

On the client, in /opt/hobbit/client/ext I have a "inqGraph" that has this
in it:

#!/bin/sh

. /opt/bb/etc/bbdef.sh


$BB $BBDISP "status `hostname`.inqGraph green `date`

`cat /tmp/queues.txt`

"


exit 0


/tmp/queues has this in it:

DIHM11a : 0

DRE11a : 9

MIRR11b : 5

The inqGraph.rrd is being created, however it seems a little strange.

</rrd>


Within this <database> portion, is the fishy part. I suspect this is why my
graph isn't being graphed.. What's with all of these NaNs (Not a Number) ?
This rrd file is fresh, created 2 minutes ago. But within this <database>
portion I see stuff like:

                  <!-- 2006-02-14 19:00:00 EST / 1139961600 --> <row><v> NaN
</v><v> NaN </v><v> NaN </v></row>

Where is this coming from? February 14th, 2006.


Full rrd file is available upon request, if it will help.


Any suggestions?

True, but it doesn't matter
Didn't notice it was in there when the email was sent out - the variable
names are the same now (and have been for a while)... but still no graphs

True, but it doesn't matter
Didn't notice it was in there when the email was sent out - the
variable
names are the same now (and have been for a while)... but still no
graphs

Hi-

I am trying to create a custom graph

On the client, in /opt/hobbit/client/ext I have a "inqGraph" that
has
this
in it:

#!/bin/sh

. /opt/bb/etc/bbdef.sh


$BB $BBDISP "status `hostname`.inqGraph green `date`

`cat /tmp/queues.txt`

"


exit 0


/tmp/queues has this in it:

DIHM11a : 0

DRE11a : 9

MIRR11b : 5

hobbitserver.cfg

===================

TEST2RRD="......,inqGraph=ncv"

The inqGraph.rrd is being created, however it seems a little
strange.

Your DEF and your GPRINT lines differs:

What do you mean?
Here's our ncv definition:
NCV_inqGraph="DIHM11a:GAUGE,DRE11a:GAUGE,MIRR11b:GAUGE"

                    --^          --^           --^

I see all caps in there...

And these are your DEF's:

DEF:DIHM11Ajon=inqGraph.rrd:DIHM11A:AVERAGE
                                --^

DEF:DRE11ajon=inqGraph.rrd:DRE11A:AVERAGE
                              --^

DEF:MIRR11bjon=inqGraph.rrd:MIRR11B:AVERAGE
                                --^

Please clarify what you mean ?

Honestly - no idea. I got this straight out of the howtograph.html :)

But I've already tried just removing all the GPRINT lines (since they don't
matter anyhow - they are the legend, from what I understand) and it still
didn't work.

Last time I had this problem I did 2 tings:

1) was to change

NCV_inqGraph="DIHM11a:GAUGE,DRE11a:GAUGE,MIRR11b:GAUGE"

to 

NCV_inqGraph="*:GAUGE"

2) was to put 


TEST2RRD="......,inqGraph=ncv"

not as the last item

TEST2RRD="......,inqGraph=ncv,files"

or something like this.

Don't know which was the tricker to make the graph happen, but it did.

One of the first rules of troubleshooting, and the more scientific method
type approach is to reduce your variables.

First, have a small script returning values for one data point. Set up this
one datapoint using ncv, and one graph for that datapoint. Get it to work.
Once it does, add another and another until you break it. Compare what was
working and what's not working, and you'll find your issue.

All things considered, it's a waste of time to troubleshooting the overly
complex problem by bruteforcing it, when you could easily setup an process
with control variables and experimental variables.

Last time I had this problem I did 2 tings:

1) was to change

NCV_inqGraph="DIHM11a:GAUGE,DRE11a:GAUGE,MIRR11b:GAUGE"

to

NCV_inqGraph="*:GAUGE"

2) was to put


TEST2RRD="......,inqGraph=ncv"

not as the last item

TEST2RRD="......,inqGraph=ncv,files"

or something like this.

Don't know which was the tricker to make the graph happen, but it did.

Hi-

I am trying to create a custom graph

On the client, in /opt/hobbit/client/ext I have a "inqGraph" that has
this
in it:

#!/bin/sh

. /opt/bb/etc/bbdef.sh


$BB $BBDISP "status `hostname`.inqGraph green `date`

`cat /tmp/queues.txt`

"


exit 0


/tmp/queues has this in it:

DIHM11a : 0

DRE11a : 9

MIRR11b : 5

The inqGraph.rrd is being created, however it seems a little strange.

Within this <database> portion, is the fishy part. I suspect this is why
my
graph isn't being graphed.. What's with all of these NaNs (Not a Number)

This rrd file is fresh, created 2 minutes ago. But within this

<database>

portion I see stuff like:

                  <!-- 2006-02-14 19:00:00 EST / 1139961600 --> <row><v>

NaN

Where is this coming from? February 14th, 2006.
