RRD graphing
-
mino, please remove the quality rrd files and let them be recreated. The format has changed.
-
nocer, I will have to look into it further. It is not obvious to me what causes this yet. The debug statement did help though. Now I know it is triggering the right path.
That the quality graph is red is correct since it pings 127.0.0.2 which is a dummy address which is normally used when it can't find the gateway for a dynamic interface. That one always times out :-)
I'll have another look at the cpu graph then.
Is this a single or dual core box? -
Thank you always databeestje :)
I'm running Atom230@1.60GHz, a single core but HT capable with SMP kernel. As for the quality graph, it used to ping my gateway correctly and created right graph, and I of course deleted 127.0.0.2 from the apinger.conf and restarted the process(not a reboot) so there's nothing apinger to do with 127.0.0.2.
cheers,

If the gateway IP comes through normally in the code it will automatically configure apinger to ping the right gateway.
I'll add more debugging and see if I can work out what is happening.
-
I think I may have solved it, the debugging statements are all there but it took a while to set up a testing rig.
Please test another snapshot.

Hi,
Some excerpts from system.log those seem to be related for gateway thingy:

Still no luck with CPU/Quality graphs.

as soon as the gateway status page is correct and not showing the duplicate WAN entry it will be automatically picked up in the quality graph. Ermal has made another fix for the pppoe problem which might have nailed it since he uses pppoe.
I will look further into the cpu graph problem.

CPU grapjh should be fixed in CVS

Shraik, you need to remove the /var/db/rrd/*-quality.rrd files. The format has changed. 3 times is golden.

Hello,
Thank you always databeestje, everything is back to as it supposed to be since your last post, Sun Nov 30 21:11:20 EST 2008 build. The CPU and Quality graph started drawing again correctly, and the Gateway also looks normal, no more 127.0.0.2 is shown, no annoying apinger logs in the system.log any more.
cheers,
-
That's good to hear.
Thank you for helping testing!

Hi,
today i look into my "System Log" and it show many errors every 5 Minutes these messages are repeated in the log:
apinger: Error while feeding rrdtool: Broken pipe apinger: rrdtool respawning too fast, waiting 300s.My quality graph is gone and this messages are shown since the automatic PPPOE restart which took place(as reported in the other topic this feature is still buggy). I hope i can help.
-
can you show me the output of a
ls -ld /var/db/rrd -
drwxr-xr-x 2 nobody nobody 512 Dec 1 10:22 /var/db/rrd -
make that ls -ld /var/db/rrd/Notice the trailing /
-
# ls -ld /var/db/rrd/ drwxr-xr-x 2 nobody nobody 512 Dec 1 10:22 /var/db/rrd/Same output… do you really are intrested in the directory permission or in the content of the directory itself (ls -al) ?
-
It was the directory permissions. But those look good. The directory permissions need to be owned by nobody because that is what apinger runs under.
You say this happens every pppoe restart, does that mean it works ok some times?
-
I can see WAN RRD graphs, wan is PPPoE.
This message in a log.

Hi,
