[collectd] WG: Re: rrdcached/collectd ports

[Stefan.Wiederoder at kaufland.de]

oops, I thought the network plugin is responsible for all collectd network 
transport.

now I´v got my collectd client sending data using the rrdcached plugin to 
my central
server (verified using tcpdump), but rrdcached is not writing any data to 
disk.

telnetting to the port and STATS says:
STATS
9 Statistics follow
QueueLength: 0
UpdatesReceived: 0
FlushesReceived: 0
UpdatesWritten: 0
DataSetsWritten: 0
TreeNodesNumber: 0
TreeDepth: 0
JournalBytes: 0
JournalRotate: 0

so I´ve got a client sending data which is (maybe) not received by 
rrdcached (no local iptables running)
and therefore not written to disk.

I´m stuck, what else can I do?



netstat: tcp        0      0 4.28.13.30:42217            0.0.0.0:*   
LISTEN      10431/rrdcached
ps: root     10431     1  0 10:27 ?        00:00:00 
/opt/rrdtool_svn/bin/rrdcached -l 4.28.13.30 -b /opt/collectd_data -F -j 
/opt/collectd_data/journal -w 20 -F -t 10

client plugin configuration:
LoadPlugin rrdcached
<Plugin "rrdcached">
  DaemonAddress "4.28.13.30:42217"
  DataDir "/opt/collectd/var/lib/collectd/"
  CreateFiles false
</Plugin>

Hi Stefan,

Since you're talking about port 25826 (the default port of collectd's
network plugin), I'm assuming that you're trying to send data to
RRDCacheD using the network plugin. That's not going to work, since
those are completely unrelated. You have to use the rrdcached plugin for
that purpose which in turn requires an up to date librrd that includes
support for the RRD client API implementing the network protocol used by
RRDCacheD.

HTH,
Sebastian
