See attached script.  It checks the log files and the RRD files for
things that are out of date.  I'm not sure if I would call it
production quality, but it might fit the bill for you.

If you're keeping things in your RRD directory that are old, like
a router or host that's not online anymore but you kept the RRD
in your config so you could compare against current graphs, then
use the "--ignore" option for those files.

#!/bin/sh

set -u

# Monitor a Cricket installation
# complain if it appears that Cricket is not running or if a
# configured Cricket directory is not getting any RRD updates

USAGE="Usage: cricket.monitor [-ignore dir-pattern ]"

# tasks:

# if cron job writes to temp file, make sure it is recent

Install Issues

After following the official documentation and the documentation here:

http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/apache/2000/03/17/cricket.html?page=2

I have run into some issues with installing cricket. 

I have installed all of the perl modules as well as SNMP_session and
RRDtool. I did compile RRDtool using make site-perl-install.

I am trying to install  cricket-1.0.5  and rrdtool-1.2.23 this is on a
centos5 box.

The error that I receive when trying to run the command:
cricket/collector /http-performance

[cricket <at> localhost ~]$ cricket/collector /http-performance

Re: UID issue while Installing from FreeBSD port

I'm not sure why cricket isn't listed in there, but I think you can fix it by editting /usr/ports/UIDs and
removing entry for UID number 81.

Re: Install Issues

How did you configure RRDtool when you built it?

Re: Install Issues

I have the pages coming up properly, however now it is not drawing any
graphs, I have let it run overnight and I still am not seeing any graphs.
I am sure that this is an rrdtool issue.

I am running a centos5 box and have compiled rrdtool rrdtool-1.2.23

When I went to do the install cricket it said it was unable to find it in
the default path, so I have changed the path to /usr/local/rrdtool-1.2.23

I just used a straight ./configure make make install  to install rrdtool, 

Should this have been done differently?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
