</span></font><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:
Arial'>I have a new hobbit installation which is collecting and trending the
apache status data correctly.</span></font> <br>
<br>
<font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>For
various reasons, I have about 7 separate apache instances on each server that I
would like to trend individually as well. </span></font><br>
<br>
<font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>To
accomplish this, I think that I would have to do the following in order to get
hobbit (4.2.0) to trend this data:</span></font> <br>
<br>
<font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>edit
~/bbnet/bbtest-net.c and copy the apache section (lines 601-637) the requisite
number of times changing the subsequent apache references to something like
2apache, then 3apache, etc. </span></font><br>
<font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Modify
the ~/hobbitd/rrd/do_apache.c file basically copying the entire thing
starting at line 13 (int do_apache_rrd(char *hostname, char *testname, char
*msg, time_t tstamp) but changing each instance of apache to 2apache, then
3apache, etc. Then recompile and redeploy. </span></font><br>
<br>
<font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>After
redeploying, I would also need to modify hobbitgraph.cfg copying the apache
section and modifying with 2apache, 3apache, etc for the name of the graph as
well as the rrd files.</span></font> <br>
<br>
<font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>At
this point, I think I should point out that I don't program in C (many would
say in any other language either.)</span></font> <br>
<br>
<font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Is
there anything else that I am missing? and am I making this too hard? </span></font><br>
