Re: [hobbit] Representing disk data for graphing

I verified that the routine parsing the data for the graphs is picking the third token on the first line. I changed the first line to look like the Unix equivalent (the date format, etc) and it is consistently picking the third item.

The '2006' is becoming the name of the data point and the value being graphed is zero.

I'm just sending the data (there is no back end routine or extra script involved), I'm letting Hobbit to the parsing.

Adding the icon (I do use &color, when I cut and pasted it from Firefox 'green' came out) is messing up the parsing such that no graph data is produced.

Notice that the third (3rd) token in the first line of the message is
"2006".  The amount of disk space that is used is also the third token
on each usage line.  I suspect that the parsing script is getting
fooled.  Is this your own script?  If so, you should use &green (or
&yellow and &red) and Hobbit will replace it with a proper status "dot."

Subject: [hobbit] Representing disk data for graphing

I'm interested in changing the way that I report disk utilization for
mainframe based operating systems (VM and VSE) so that it can be graphed
by RRD.  The basic message format seems right, but the graph is not
coming out properly.  Here is the message text:

  11 Oct 2006 07:45:23 Disk/SFS Utilization OK

green /VMSYSU/group3  71896          0      71896   0.0%   /SFS/VMSYSU

The 'green' indicator on the left is a green icon put there to easily
spot an offender.  Is that messing up the parsing of the message for
graphing purposes?  Or is it possibly the decimal points in the
percentages?

The graph is coming up with a single data point called 2006.
