Service doesn't seem to be graphing

Post by dpasacrita »

Hey everyone, I'm having some trouble graphic the performance data of this plugin I've been using.

So I installed this plugin a few days ago: https://exchange.nagios.org/directory/P ... us/details

It's a plugin that checks the apache server status page, and sees how many open, idle, and busy workers there are, as well as the response time. I've been using it and it definitely works, it's returning all the right data. The problem is that I can't seem to graph this data.

Unlike all the other services I'm monitoring, I don't see anything in the graph explorer for it. I don't see it in the host detail for the host monitoring the service, and if I go to the service directly and click on the performance data tab there's nothing visible.

I thought maybe the data was to blame, so I actually edited the script to make it output less, instead just returning the number of busy workers, which is the number we really want to graph. Still nothing. So my question is, what actually determines whether or not the data is graphable? How can I change this script so that it will work? According to what I've read it should be graphing, because all nagios needs is the status string, then a pipe, and then the data. So I'm really confused why this isn't working....
