Hobbit Devmon question / help needed

[Stewart, Tom L.]

I downloaded Devmon and have it running just fine.

However, I am having a problem with getting the stats from a Devmon
if_load status into rrd. The rrd's never get created. I did do the other
parts and since I am creating a tmp file from the extra-rrd.pl, that
would indicate that the code is executing !


Here is where I believe the problem is.

>From the extra-rrd.pl the code is as follows:

Code start ------------
#!/usr/bin/perl

# Input parameters: Hostname, testname (column), and messagefile
#$HOSTNAME=$ARGV[0]; ;
$TESTNAME=$ARGV[1]; ;
$FNAME=$ARGV[2]; ;
$filename="/tmp/if_log";

# Read the entire files
open (FILEHANDLE,$FNAME) || die ("cant read file\n");
@input = <FILEHANDLE>;
close (FILEHANDLE);

if ( $TESTNAME eq "if_load") {

           # Analyze the message we got
           open(OUT, ">", $filename);
           print OUT "This is the stuff\n at input";
           foreach $line (@input) {
                   if ($line =~ /(^[A-Z].*) (\d+):(\d+)$/ ) {
                           # The RRD dataset definitions
                           print "DS:in:DERIVE:600:0:U\n";
                           print "DS:out:DERIVE:600:0:U\n";

                           # The filename
                           print "if_load_$1.rrd\n";

                           # The data
                           print "$2:$3\n";
                   }
           }
        close (OUT);
}
Code stop -----------------------

I added some code to create and show what is in the if_load stat in the
/tmp/if_log file for debugging.

The /tmp/if_log file I see is:

bash-3.00$ cat /tmp/if_log

Here is a copy of the message file from
devmon/templates/cisco-7206/if_load


The message file for the device (7206) shows:

<b>Interface error rates:</b>

red={ifInLoad.thresh:red}%
Output load: yellow={ifOutLoad.thresh:yellow}%,

I suspect the message file is wrong? But I have only started this on
Friday, so I figured the experts could point me to the right direction.
