	Hi,


	I have no RRD infos on Established TCP on my AIX 4 hosts .

	Which "test" is used for this ? [ports] ?


Sample client data :

[ports]
tcp4       0      0  130.92.0.60.53919      10.92.5.220.53          TIME_WAIT
tcp4       0      0  130.92.0.60.1530       130.81.6.124.1561       ESTABLISHED
tcp4       0      0  130.92.0.60.1526       130.81.6.140.1520       ESTABLISHED
tcp4       0      0  130.92.0.60.23         130.92.1.24.3847        ESTABLISHED
tcp4       0      0  130.92.0.60.23         130.92.1.24.3845        ESTABLISHED

Have you defined a PORT rule for this in hobbit-clients.cfg ?
Including a TRACK definition ?

You need to set TRACK=id for the PORTS STATUS COLUMN SETTINGS

Extract of hobbit-clients.cfg man page:

      ...
      PORT  criteria  [MIN=mincount]  [MAX=maxcount]   [COL=color]
      [TRACK=id] [TEXT=displaytext]
      ...
      The optional TRACK=id setting causes  Hobbit  to  track  the
      number  of sockets found in an RRD file, and put this into a
      graph which is shown on the "ports" status display.  The  id
      setting  is  a  simple text string which will be used as the
      legend for the graph, and also as part of the RRD  filename.
      It  is  recommended that you use only letters and digits for
      the ID.

NOP.
For now I'd like to have all established...like on my Solaris hosts.

Put this in your hobbit-clients.cfg
    PORT STATE=ESTABLISHED MIN=0 TRACK=Established

That graph is the netstat3 iteration from the netstat rrd which doesn't work
on AIX (4 or 5)

You will also find that the ifstat data is not collected on AIX (or linux).

Chris

Are you talking about the "netstat3" graph ?

I think the confusion comes from some different data reported by the
various operating systems. Solaris's "netstat -s" output provides a
"tcpCurrEstab" value reporting the number of currently ESTABLISHED 
sessions.  AIX's "netstat -s" output doesn't include this information,
so that graph is not present for an AIX host.

The method I talked about earlier with the PORT setting in the 
client configuration works on all hosts.

Henrik

Wonderful.


Any idea for my vmstat-graph issue ?
