RE: [hobbit] using NCV

["Joshua Krause" <forums (at) triadbiz.rr.com>]

Well I had it as "TEMP:GAUGE" and wasn't getting anything either.  So I saw
on another post where someone had "*:GAUGE" and decided to try that.  Still
not getting anything though.  I am not even getting a temp.rrd file created.

I am currently using ncv to graph some of my cisco switches temperature.
And would like to use it to graph some of my DC Power Plant and UPS Temps.
The cisco switch columns are called "temps" and the dc power plant and ups's
columns are called "temp".  The cisco switches are working but the dc power
plants and ups's aren't.  I have put 2 entries into the hobbit-server.cfg:

 

TEST2RRD="cpu=la,disk,inode,qtree,memory,$PINGCOLUMN=tcp,http=tcp,dns=tcp,di
g=tcp,time=ntpstat,vmstat,iostat,netstat,temperature,apache,bind,sendmail,ma
ilq,nmailq=ma

q,socks,bea,iishealth,citrix,bbgen,bbtest,bbproxy,hobbitd,files,procs=proces
ses,ports,clock,lines,if_load=devmon,temp=ncv,temps=ncv,processor=ncv"

 

NCV_temps="TEMP:GAUGE"

NCV_temp="*:GAUGE" 


Are you sure that asterisk is OK??  You can check the rrd to see if data is
being recorded:

     rrdtool dump data/rrd/<hostname>/temp.rrd

or something similar.
