RRD problems

[xspoon]

Hi,

I had the same problem:
did you should check your Check_command_arguments line in the service configuration ?

exemple:
Check_command: check_graph_traffic
Check_command_arguments : !13!80!95!public!1

without the ending "!"

that was my typo!

hope this works for you

Re: test from shell

If I run from shell ./check_graph_ping.pl -H 10.13.5.105 -g -S 13. It creates the rrd file 13.rrd .

Question then is the variable $USER1$?????? 8)

I had the same troubles at first. The 'oreon service id' you have to give with the -S argument is passed by Oreon itself as the last argument. So for example if you have 2 arguments in your check_command_arguments (!arg1!arg2) you have to put '-S $ARG3$' on your command-line to let oreon automatically pass the service-id to the plugin. This way unique file-names for the RRD's can be made.
Your USER1 variable is normally set in resource.cfg and points to the plug-in dir.

According to Oreon Wiki[1], you don't have to specify any argument to -S option.
$USER1$ is a Nagios macro used to store plugin's directory, by convention.
This macro is defined into resources.cfg file. You can change this value in Oreon via "Options" menu, then "resources.cfg" sub-menu.

$USER1$ is a nagios specifique variable configure somewhere in nagios config file

but for ./check_graph_ping.pl you don't have to specify -S 13 because oreon automatically generate this variable.

I have the solution finally

I browsed. Somewhere they mentioned an arguement. !10. This worked for me.

Is there a page listing the check commands

Maybe it is the permission on rrdtools folder itself

What should the permission be on /usr/local/rrdtools-1.0.49?

Mine reads drwxr-sr-x root staff. Should I change this????

:?

[keb]

Remove the created folder and ran symbolic cmd in the shell

This created a link called rrdtool pointing back to the rrdtool-1.0.49 folder. I restarted nagios via shell. Still no rrd files are being generated. I still get /usr/local/oreon/rrd/##.rrd is not accessible.

What am I missing. The plug in does return a value at shell. But it is not creating a rrd file and populating.

Help Help......

i think it is for having /usr/local/rrdtool-1.0.49 and /usr/local/rrdtool to point to the same folder /usr/local/rrdtool-1.0.49

ln -s /usr/local/rrdtool-1.0.49 /usr/local/rrdtool

[keb]

additional info

The only part which confused me was the symbolic link ln -s. Because I do not have a /usr/local/rrdtool folder. I have only a /usr/local/rrdtool-1.0.49 folder. Where should this symbolic go. At the root? Should I create an rrdtool folder and put it there. I did that the later. It did not do anything.

Hello. First, I must say, nice looking. I installed it on a debian linux box and followed your instructions. I got version 1.2.2 working, however I am having problems with the graphs. I was able to set up hosts, contacts, and services. They show the nice pie graphs and everying. I tried setting up check_graph_ping. I get a response from the shell when I run the perl script:

debian:/usr/local/nagios/libexec# ./check_graph_ping.pl -H 10.13.3.24
GPING OK - rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.276/0.276/0.276/0.000 ms
debian:/usr/local/nagios/libexec# ./check_graph_ping.pl -H 10.13.3.24 -g
GPING OK - rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.285/0.285/0.285/0.000 ms

When I check in /usr/local/oreon/rrd there are no rrd files. I use the web gui and I get File /usr/local/oreon/rrd/10.rrd is not accessible.

I check permissions. oreon has wwwdata.wwwdata -rwxrwxrwx as well as its subfolders, except rrd which is nagios.nagios drwxrwxrwx.

I used your nagios installation package, which included the rrdtool-1.0.49

Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. 8)
