Hi,

I tried doing the below steps. telnet for gmond is working and for gmetad is 
also working. However, there is no entry into the rrds directory. Also, I ran 
the xmllint command over the xml files generated in each case i.e gmond and 
gmetad and I got an error saying "parser error". I am attaching the error along 
with the gmond.xml and gmetad.xml files. 




xmllint command ran over gmond.xml file.

systst-zen-133:/var/opt/novell/zenworks/monitor/rrds # xmllint --valid --noout 
gmond.xml
gmond.xml:1: parser error : Start tag expected, '<' not found
Trying 164.99.157.133...
^

xmllint command ran over gmetad.xml file.

systst-zen-133:/var/opt/novell/zenworks/monitor/rrds #  xmllint --valid --noout 
gmetad.xml
gmetad.xml:1: parser error : Start tag expected, '<' not found
Trying 164.99.157.133...
^


Also, I have attached the xml files generated by the telnet command ran. Pls 
help me resolve this.

Thanks

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.)

Hope that helps.
