[Orca-dev] Re: orca charts recognize host bus adaptor attached disk

[dave.pyles at boeing.com]

The new orcallator.se doesn't seem to work right when processed by my
older version (26beta1) of orca, so I've downloaded 27b2. I went
through the configure/make/install cycle and the new version won't
run. I guess I need to go back to orca-users now and figure out what's
wrong:

# ./bin/orca -v -o lib/orcallator.cfg

/opt/orca/lib/Orca/Config.pm line 76.

Error in option spec: "verbose+"
Error in option spec: "SCALAR(0x1f923c)"
usage: ./bin/orca [options] configuration_file
Options:
  -daemon           Run Orca in daemon mode
  -gifs             Output GIFs instead of PNGs
  -logfile filename Output all messages
  -no-html          Update RRD files and images but not HTML files
  -no-images        Update RRD files but not image and HTML files
  -once             Run only once and do not continue to monitor input
files
  -verbose          Verbose; list multiple times for increased
verbosity
Orca understands the first unique command line option, i.e. -d for
-daemon.

The configure/make/make test_modules/make install_modules/make install
seemed to run ok after I got my path to cc, make, and pod2man correct.

config.log and config.status say exit 0

I know this group isn't for help installing, I didn't expect to go
through all of this to be able to see my fibre attached drives. I'll
go peruse the archives and try to figure out where I went wrong.
