Re: [hobbit] BIND graph



Definitely not a complaint. I just figured that I would take a look at it to see what it graphed. It was only a curiousity, nothing that I really needed.

The graph def references a bind.rrd file, but the default dns test just generates a tcp.dns.rrd file. Haven't done this myself, but I think you need to use the dns=TYPE:lookup tests to get that data.

Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but I just looked at do_bind.c file in the latest snapshot and I know why bind.rrd isn't being generated:

int do_bind_rrd(char *hostname, char *testname, char *msg, time_t tstamp)
{
        errprintf("bind rrd not implemented\n");
        return -1;
}

Absolutely correct. The "bind" graphs are fed by the LARRD bind-larrd.pl script, and since noone has complained until now, I was fairly sure it wasn't being used by anyone.

The "dns" test in Hobbit just tracks the response time of your DNS
server, not the performance metrics that the bind-larrd.pl script
monitors.
