[mrtg] Re: problems with disk/cpu data collections

[Daniel Curry]

Sorry about the length of this, but....

Here is the information as previously requested.  I have commented out
the 'gauge' lines since starting this thread.

Target[viper.disk.1]: 'perl ./getdisk.pl viper 1'
Title[viper.disk.1]: Viper's Root Partition % used
MaxBytes[viper.disk.1]: 100
PageTop[viper.disk.1]: <H1> Disk Space Usage for System: Viper </H1>
Suppress[viper.disk.1]: y
LegendI[viper.disk.1]: % used
LegendO[viper.disk.1]:
Legend1[viper.disk.1]: % used
Legend2[viper.disk.1]:
YLegend[viper.disk.1]: percent used
ShortLegend[viper.disk.1]: used
#Options[viper.disk.1]: gauge

Here starts my script
************************************************************************
*****
#!/usr/bin/perl
# This script is used to establish a TCP connection with a host to get
the 
# disk info provided by showdisk.pl.
#
# use: ./getdisk.pl <hostname> <disk number>
#
# By Steven Micallef <smic at wire.net.au> on the 24/4/1999.

use Net::Telnet ();
$hostname = $ARGV[0];
$disk_no = $ARGV[1];

# If you've changed the port showdisk.pl runs on, change it here too.
$port = 9047;
$i = 0;

if ($hostname eq "" || $disk_no eq "" )
{
  print "Usage: $0 <hostname> <disk number>\n";
  exit;
}

$t = new Net::Telnet ( Host => $hostname, Port => $port);
$t->open("$hostname");

do
{
  $data = $t->getline(Timeout => 40);
  $i++;
  if ($i eq $disk_no)
  {
    print $data;
  }
} while ($i != $disk_no);


Again, any help as to why these are not adding data to the .log files
would be greatly appreciated.  Also, can anyone tell me how to put
multiple 'partitions' graphs on a single page? And have that page
updated by mrtg?  

TIA
