Hello,
can you check, if the data is getting downloaded and stored in the first place? Specifically,
- are there RRD files in
lpar2rrd/data/XEN
andlpar2rrd/data/XEN_VMs
? - is there a non-empty
lpar2rrd/data/XEN_iostats/conf.json
file?
Can you send us logs to look into it?
cd /home/lpar2rrd/lpar2rrd # or where is your LPAR2RRD working dir tar cvhf logs.tar logs tmp/*txt tmp/*json gzip -9 logs.tar
Send us
logs.tar.gz
via https://upload.lpar2rrd.com - are there RRD files in
-
Hello,1,I found the RRD files, in the XEN and XEN_VMs directories.2,"cat /home/lpar2rrd/lpar2rrd/data/XEN_iostats/conf.json"{}This file is not empty, but almost empty.The log files has been uploaded!Unfortunately the XenServer menu did not appeard yet.Thank you for your help!

Hello,
metadata necessary for creating menu is not getting downloaded (over SSH from the XenServer host) and stored properly.
I don't see the
logs
directory in the logs that you have uploaded. Can you upload the logs, or at least a peek at thelogs/error.log-xen
andlogs/load_xenserver.log
files?If there are warnings that the connection times out, and if you are using LPAR2RRD 7.20 (and as opposed to a 7.21), can you try the following patch? It restructures some of the queries over SSH to reduce overhead.
https://download.lpar2rrd.com/patch/7.21-2-9-g2336e/xen-xapi2json.pl.gz
Gunzip it and copy to
/home/lpar2rrd/lpar2rrd/bin
(755, lpar2rrd owner)-rwxrwxr-x 1 lpar2rrd lpar2rrd 17453 19. čec 13.11 xen-xapi2json.pl
If your web browser gunzips it automatically then just rename it:
mv xen-xapi2json.pl.gz xen-xapi2json.pl
Assure that file size is the same as on above example.

Helló,
Sorry, it was my mistake...
The logfiles has been updated!
Thanks, i will try this patch! -
Hello,
I replaced the xen-xapi2json.pl file and restart the server,
but unfortunately i can not see the Xen Server menu yet.
Maybe i have to wait a little bit more... -
Hello,
thanks for the logs. The problem is that fetching data times out indeed. That should be mitigated by the aforementioned
bin/xen-xapi2json.pl
patch. -
Hello,
First of all, thank you for your help!After the patch, the Xen Server menu appeard in the LPAR2RRD web page.
We see a lot of information from the Xen server,But... unfortunately i got an error message for some sub-pages under Xen Server menu:For example i got this error message in storage section:
/home/lpar2rrd/lpar2rrd/data/XEN/3d35ef59-b57b-4918-b30c-ca6bf706a676/disk-dcee0ddd.rrd does not exist /home/lpar2rrd/lpar2rrd/bin/detail-graph-cgi.pl:25563
As i see the "3d35ef59-b57b-4918-b30c-ca6bf706a676" folder is missing.
We also can't generate reports from Xen Servers data.
The xen server option is missing from the reports types.
Do you have idea what cause the problem?
Could you help us to find the solution in this case also?
Thank you! -
Glad you got it resolved.
Now, regarding your followup:
A similar storage-related issue was previously discussed in this thread. Long story short, XAPI reports existence of storage devices (including virtual) but not always corresponding performance data. You can omit certain storage types (especially ISO) from the menu using the patch suggested there. Does it affect other types of storage devices too in your case?
- XenServer is not currently supported by Reporter. [documentation]
-
Hello,
We would like to export CSV or TXT file from Xen Server's data.
Is it possible somehow? -
Hello,
that is not currently supported for XenServer.
-
Ok! Thank you for the information!
Howdy, Stranger!
