Nagios Support Forum

I've created a custom check and a custom template. Check is working perfectly but when I click on Performance Graphs I get "nagios xi no performance graphs were found for this service"

- Graphs work for other check
- I've replaced my custom template with the default template and get same error
- template name and command name are the same
- template owner & group is nagios
- permissions on the template are rw-rw-r--

Past my above steps what's next to trouble shoot?

Is your check actually returning perf data? Navigate to the Advanced tab of your service and see if anything is listed under "Performance Data:".

Should have mentioned that but yes it is. Also I just got back from a 15 minute walk and now I have a graph. Does it take some time for the graph to be created?

Yes, it can take around 15 minutes to get enough data in the RRD's to plot points on a graph, there is a minimum amount required for the points to be drawn. I say typically 15 minutes because by default nagios runs checks on hosts/services every 5 minutes, that would allow for roughly 3 returned checks with performance data.

Makes sense. Thank you.
