Hi,

I'm Netsaint user and i decide to try Nagios...
I want to use the perfdata functionnality but i do not succeed...

1)
I compile Nagios with --with-default-perfdata
I put these entriues in my nagios.cfg : 
process_performance_data=1
host_perfdata_command=process-host-perfdata
service_perfdata_command=process-service-perfdata

I put these entries in my services.cfg :

define service{
 host_name mycomputer
 service_description check
 check_command check_alive
 max_check_attempts 5
 normal_check_interval 5
 retry_check_interval 3
 active_checks_enabled 1
 check_period 24x7
 parallelize_check 1
 process_perf_data 1
 retain_status_information 1
 retain_nonstatus_information 1
 notification_interval 30
 notification_period 24x7
 notification_options w,c,r
 contact_groups louafi
}

I put the entry process_perf_data 1 in my MYCOMPUTER definition in
hosts.cfg

I defined these commands in my commands.cfg :

define command{
        command_name process-host-perfdata
        command_line /bin/echo -e "$HOSTNAME$" >>
/opt/nagios/hostperfdata
        }
define command{
        command_name process-service-perfdata
        command_line /bin/echo -e "$HOSTNAME$" >>
/opt/nagios/serviceperfdata
        }

But I don't have any entry in my files :( (Nagios does not create the
dump file)

2)
I recompile NAGIOS with --with-file-perfdata

I put these entries in my nagios.cfg :
process_performance_data=1
xpdfile_host_perfdata_file=/opt/nagios/var/hostperf
xpdfile_service_perfdata_file=/opt/nagios/var/svcperf
xpdfile_host_perfdata_template=$HOSTNAME$\n
xpdfile_service_perfdata_template=$HOSTNAME$\n

Nagios creates hostperf and svcperf files but i don't have any entry in
these files :(

The files permssions are good...

Any Ideas ???

Thanks
