It is probably best to debug one piece at a time. Here is my suggestion: 1) Start with gmond. Just start it up and don't worry about gmetad yet. You should be able to telnet to port 8649 on localhost and see a dump of all the xml data. If you don't see any metrics, then the problem could be with using multicast. In that cast, try a unicast configuration. 2) If gmond is OK, then start up gmetad. At this point, you should be able to telnet to port 8651 on localhost and get another dump of all the xml data. If you don't seen anything, that probably means that gmetad cannot connect to gmond for some reason. 3) If gmetad is reporting metrics, the next thing to check is if gmetad is regularly updating its rrd files. In your case, you should find the rrd files in /var/opt/novell/zenworks/monitor/rrds and they should get updated every 15 secs or so. If you don't see any files, it could mean there is some filesystem permission issue preventing gmetad from creating the rrd files. 4) Once the above things have been verified, try the web page again. If you don't see anything, it might mean there is a problem in the conf.php. (Perhaps it doesn't have right directory location for the rrd files, or maybe it can't find the rrdtool command.)
