Hi !

  I've got a mysterious problem,
  because there are  too many graph-links (dead links) on the trend-page for my SPLITNCV-Graphs ..

... see  http://desy.de/~flemming/afss3.png
(The first afss3-graph is right and pretty but follows of ghostly links)

Im running
[xymon01] /usr/lib/xymon/server/bin # ./xymongen --version
xymongen version 4.3.4

but this problem was already there with older versions :-(

I startet with a normal NVC-method and there was everything ok

i've got one afss.rrd and could show every of my 20 value in a seperate graph on the trend-page ... but now i want to use the SPLITNCV-Method to have for each value one seperate rrd, so i can compare each value for several servers
.. this also works but unfortunaltey ony with these addittional ghostly/dead links :-(

Has somebody an idea what's going wrong ?

thanks & Cheers

It has always been a bit tricky getting Xymon's svchost.cgi tool to figure out how many graph links it should include on the status page, simply because svchost doesn't know about how graphs map to RRD files (that knowledge lies in showgraph).

The best thing You can do is to include the line

   <!-- linecount=N -->

in the status-message that your custom check sends to Xymon, with "N" being the correct number of graphs. That overrides the (flawed) heuristic that is currently being used.


Regards,
Henrik

Thanks, Henrik for response :-)

Unfortunatley my attempts  are not successfull  V

Could you give me an advice where/how
i should added it :I


that's my last lines of the perl-script :

#
## Format output
##
$DATE = scalar(localtime(time));

$LINE="status $ENV{MACHINE}.$TEST $COLOR $DATE\n\n\n$rxdebug_status\n\n$afs_fs_status";

##
## Send to BBDISPlay
##
system("$ENV{BB} $ENV{BBDISP} \"$LINE\"");
exit;


thanks in advance

Maybe add this:

$LINE="$LINE <!-- linecount=20 -->"
