Blair,

   I cut and paste the info you requested in the orcallator.cfg file.
   I stop and restarted the orcallator and it still didn't get it.

   Keep in mind your x86 may be just all SCSI disks. That why it
captured the SCSI cdrom burner
   on my system. The rest of the drives are IDE. That is why they look
funny in the df -k output.
   Now you know why there isn't a SCSI target number.

   Here is my rrd output:

  ls *disk*
gauge_1024_X_disk_rK_per_s.rrd  gauge_disk_runp_c1t1d0.rrd
gauge_1024_X_disk_wK_per_s.rrd  gauge_disk_wr_per_s.rrd
gauge_disk_rd_per_s.rrd

   As you can see it still only see that c1t1d0 drive.
