TRENDS doesn't seem to do anything

For the first time, I’m trying to deviate from the default graphs show on the trends page for a few hosts.

I’ve tried this:

    TRENDS:la,disk,memory,users,vmstat,ol,tcp,netstat,ifstat

and

    TRENDS:*,ol

But it continues to show the same graphs. The complete line is actually this (if it matters):

    x.x.x.x hostname # "OS:linux" "CLASS:test" "DESCR:server:Test OpenLDAP consumer (slave)" "http://ldaptest.example.com/dummy.txt"; "ldaps" "ol" "badldaps:1:2:5" "DOWNTIME=ldap,ldaps,http,ol:*:0400:0415:Log Rotation" "TRENDS:la,disk,memory,users,vmstat,tcp,netstat,ifstat”

I’ve searched the list archives and don’t see any mention of this tag being ineffective. What am I doing wrong? Thanks.

It's not that I think guns, drugs, prostitution, swimming, eating and reading should be legal. It's just that no one on Earth has the authority to make them illegal.

I followed a process as old as the Internet:

  1. Work on it for two days
  2. Give up and contact the mailing list
  3. Wait 3 seconds
  4. Figure it out on your own

The “ol” graph isn’t one of the defaults included with Xymon. Apparently, even though the graph works fine on its own, it can’t be included in TRENDS unless you also add it to GRAPHS in `hobbitserver.cfg`.

That's one of my favorite processes. Though I'm a non-smoker, I bet it
is analogous to waiting 20 mins for a bus that is late, lighting a
cigarette, and having it come immediately thereafter.

To be honest I find that by simply putting your words down to an audience
that doesn't look at you with a blank stare helps tremendously.

In other words, the mailing list definitely did help you =)
