Hi,

I am just beginning with RRDtool, trying to monitor and graph certain
system parameters (here: lm_sensors).

I have set up lm_sensors, and the command '$ sensors' returns this:

        # sensors
        as99127f-i2c-0-2d
        Adapter: SMBus Via Pro adapter at e800
        Algorithm: Non-I2C SMBus adapter
        VCore1:    +1.79 V  (min =  +1.74 V, max =  +1.93 V)
        VCore2:    +0.09 V  (min =  +1.74 V, max =  +1.93 V)       ALARM
        3p3V:      +3.34 V  (min =  +3.13 V, max =  +3.45 V)
        5V:        +5.04 V  (min =  +4.72 V, max =  +5.24 V)
        12V:      +12.20 V  (min = +10.79 V, max = +13.19 V)
        m12V:     -10.40 V  (min = -10.78 V, max = -13.18 V)       ALARM
        m5V:       -3.87 V  (min =  -4.74 V, max =  -5.24 V)       ALARM
        fan1:     6887 RPM  (min = 3000 RPM, div = 2)
        fan2:        0 RPM  (min = 4500 RPM, div = 2)
        temp1:       +36°C  (limit =  +60°C, hysteresis =  +50°C)
        temp2:     +43.1°C  (limit =  +67°C, hysteresis =  +60°C)        (beep)
        temp3:    +112.2°C  (limit =  +60°C, hysteresis =  +50°C)
        vid:      +1.85 V
        alarms:   Chassis intrusion detection
        beep_enable:
                  Sound alarm enabled

I wrote a matching perl script to call this and update the .rrdfile:

        # cat readsensors
        #!/usr/bin/perl

        use lib "/usr/local/rrdtool/lib/perl";
        use RRDs;

        $sensors = "lm_sensors.rrd";
        $step = 300;

        $debug = 1;

        if ($ARGV[0] =~ /create/i) {
                RRDs::create ($sensors, "--step", $step,
                        "DS:vcore1:GAUGE:600:U:U",
                        "DS:vcore2:GAUGE:600:U:U",
                        "DS:3p3v:GAUGE:600:U:U",
                        "DS:5v:GAUGE:600:U:U",
                        "DS:12v:GAUGE:600:U:U",
                        "DS:m12v:GAUGE:600:U:U",
                        "DS:m5v:GAUGE:600:U:U",
                        "DS:fan1:GAUGE:600:U:U",
                        "DS:fan2:GAUGE:600:U:U",
                        "DS:temp1:GAUGE:600:U:U",
                        "DS:temp2:GAUGE:600:U:U",
                        "DS:temp3:GAUGE:600:U:U",
                        "DS:vid:GAUGE:600:U:U",
                        "RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:1200",
                        "RRA:MIN:0.5:12:2400",
                        "RRA:MAX:0.5:12:2400",
                        "RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:12:2400",
                        );
                my $ERR=RRDs::error;
                die "ERROR while updating $sensors: $ERR\n" if $ERR;
                exit 0;
                }

        open(SENSORS," sensors|") || die " could not run sensors. $!";
        while (<SENSORS>) {
                if (/(.+):\s*\+?(\-?\d+\.?\d*)/i) {
                        $value{lc($1)}=$2;
                        print lc($1) . " = $2\n" if $debug;
                        };
        }
        close(SENSORS);

        $t = join(':',keys %value);
        $v = join(':',values %value);

        print "$t\n$v\n" if $debug;

        RRDs::update ($sensors, "-t", $t, "N:".$v);
        my $ERR=RRDs::error;
        die "ERROR while updating $sensors: $ERR\n" if $ERR;
        exit 0;

Callin this script (with debug =1), I get:
# ./readsensors
        vcore1 = 1.79
        vcore2 = 0.09
        3p3v = 3.34
        5v = 5.04
        12v = 12.20
        m12v = -10.40
        m5v = -3.87
        fan1 = 6887
        fan2 = 5720
        temp1 = 36
        temp2 = 43.1
        temp3 = 112.2
        vid = 1.85
        temp2:temp3:vid:3p3v:vcore1:fan1:12v:vcore2:fan2:5v:m12v:temp1:m5v
        43.1:112.2:1.85:3.34:1.79:6887:12.20:0.09:5720:5.04:-10.40:36:-3.87

yes, after calling this several times over 20 minutes or so I cannot graph
the date:
        # rrdtool graph *rrd -a PNG
        ERROR: can't make a graph without contents

Dumping the data reveals wrong values (they are all changing wildly after
each update though
the values in each update stay mostly the same), and all archive data is
NaN.

What am I doing wrong?
