Hi all,

On Tue Dec 23, 2008 2:32 pm I posted a topic "Temperature graph not working", 
where I described how I was unsuccessfully trying to add a graph showing the 
CPU temperature on my local linux box, the same in which the Zenoss daemons are 
running.

Actually, after install, I made Zennoss recognize my system on 
/Devices/Server/localhost, being connected to it aiming the browser to the URL 
http://localhost:8080/zport/dmd. It started drawing the default performance 
graphs.

Afterwards I wanted to monitor the CPU temperature, I did all the steps 
described in "Temperature graph not working", being logged to to Zenoss with 
the browser on the URL http://io:8080/zport/dmd, where io is the LAN name of my 
PC. As described in my previous post the graph didn't draw any sample, even if 
the data-source test was correctly showing the SNMP readings of the OID.

So what I did was to delete the data-source and its graph, to restart the 
machine (to be really sure), to open the browser on 
http://localhost:8080/zport/dmd and to redo all the steps for the CPU 
temperature graph configuration. And guess what? This time the graph did paint 
a nice green line of the SNMP readings!

What do you think about this? Should it be considered a bug? Or is there 
something i'm missing?

How are the graph data stored? I mean the data-source was reading correctly, 
but the graph was not showing anything. Looks like Zenoss is unable to store 
data if the /Devices/Server was created from a child of Zenoss which was on an 
alias of the network name on which the graph is created. Does it make sense? 
One would expect the IP being the key, am I wrong?

Thank you and sorry for writing so much, it's just that the thing puzzles me a 
bit...

Best regards,
Max.
