Hobbit does handle all of the graphs that LARRD knew about, and a few more. However, it is quite likely that you installed a script that sends in messages with a different format, that Hobbit does not understand.

One example is bb-xsnmp.pl script.  I am using against routers, switches
and apc ups.  Using an APC ups as an example I get this in the web page:

green UPS Temperature: 37? C


bb-xsnmp.pl Version: 1.78

I suppose that shows up in a column labelled "temperature" ?

Hobbit does know about "temperature" reports, but it assumes that are
formatted differently than what bb-xsnmp.pl sends (You can see what it
expects in the hobbitd/larrd/do_temperature.c file).

If you can send me a sample of the status-messages that bb-xsnmp.pl
generates, I can probably tweak Hobbit's RRD modules to recognize
those reports. The best way of getting those data is to run

~/server/bin/bb 127.0.0.1 "hobbitdlog HOSTNAME.COLUMN" >COLUMN.txt

since that preserves any formatting (tabs, newlines etc) that the
report uses.
