Hi,

I'm trying to follow the Help -> Custom Graphs instructions as follows:
I've written a script to collect data, asked hobbitclient to run it
regularly.
Checked that the data is arriving on the xymon server
backup.notme.org.au|temp|green||1237445672|1237515673|1237517473|0|0|xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx|-1|||Y
green Fri Mar 20 13:21:13 EST 2009 Temp GOOD (38 degrees)
sda : 38
sdb : 36

hobbitserver.cfg:TEST2RRD="cpu=la,disk,inode,qtree,memory,$PINGCOLUMN=tcp,http=tcp,dns=tcp,dig=tcp,time=ntpstat,vmstat,iostat,netstat,temperature,apache,bind,sendmail,mailq,nmailq=mailq,socks,bea,iishealth,citrix,bbgen,bbtest,bbproxy,hobbitd,files,procs=processes,ports,clock,lines,ops,stats,cifs,JVM,JMS,HitCache,Session,JDBCConn,ExecQueue,JTA,TblSpace,RollBack,MemReq,InvObj,snapmirr,snaplist,snapshot,if_load=devmon,mysql=ncv,dnsnum=ncv,astnet=ncv,ups=ncv,temp=ncv"

Added this line to indicate that the numbers are absolute values, not
always increasing values (default of DERIVE)...
hobbitserver.cfg:NCV_temp="*:GAUGE"

Re-started the hobbit rrd processes, and eventually also re-started
xymon completely.

rrdtool dump shows this:
<!-- Round Robin Database Dump --><rrd> <version> 0003 </version>
        <step> 300 </step> <!-- Seconds -->
        <lastupdate> 1237515898 </lastupdate> <!-- 2009-03-20 13:24:58

                <unknown_sec> 0 </unknown_sec>
        </ds>

        <ds>
                <name> sdb </name>
                <type> GAUGE </type>
                <minimal_heartbeat> 600 </minimal_heartbeat>
                <min> 0.0000000000e+00 </min>
                <max> NaN </max>

                <!-- PDP Status -->
                <last_ds> UNKN </last_ds>
                <value> 8.0460000000e+03 </value>
                <unknown_sec> 0 </unknown_sec>
        </ds>

So, for some reason the values are not getting into the rrd files....

Note, I found that I previously had an entry in TEST2RRD for
temp=devmon, so I have removed that and deleted all the rrd files (for
temp) so that they would be re-created.

Could anyone advise what I might have done wrong/missed here?

Thanks,
Adam
