"type" is a well defined term in collectd; it's part of the naming schema [0], [1]. > What does the "-1 Type `all' isn't defined" mean? This is part of the "plain-text protocol" [2]. "-1" inicates an error reponse, the rest is the error message. It tells you that no "type" by the name of "all" exists. > It isn't appearing in the standard output of my PUTVAL exec script > which looks very clean innocent: > > PUTVAL "some-fully-qualified-name/rabbitmq/more-rabbits" interval=10 N:2 > PUTVAL "some-fully-qualified-name/rabbitmq/more-rabbits" interval=10 N:100 > PUTVAL "some-fully-qualified-name/rabbitmq/more-rabbits" interval=10 N:500000 In these examples, the "type" would be "more", which isn't defined in the default "types.db". If you replaced "more" by "gauge", for example, it should yield metrics.
