Renat,
	There are two possible ways to fix your problem.

1)	The right way configure the SE Toolkit to recognize you T3 disk.  Out of
the box it knows about SCSI (sdX) and EIDE  (dadX ) disks.   There is a
config
file (Sorry I am at home till monday)  that lets you tell it to recognize
nfs and other types of devices.

This is the way the Rich Pettit (the author of the SE Toolkit) would prefer
the statistics be collected.  He views that raw disk code as a Hack.

Unfortunately, for me this method does not work for several SUN disk arrays
A1000, A3500, ????

It may or may not work for T3's

2)   Use the Raw disk code.  (It is a Hack but one that works most of the
time
and then I end up fixing it again.)

If you want to use method #2  send me email (off line ) and we can get it to
work.

Hi All

Is there a orcallator for Tru64/TruCluster ?

Hi Renaat,

It's some cruft in src/orca.pl.in that I left in there.  Search
for ZZZ and remove it.

I don't recall why I put it in there, probably some debugging, but
forgot to remove it.

Best,
Blair

Hi Michael,

No, there's no orcallator.se for Tru64.  If there's any data
gathering tools for the OS, you may be able just to write an
Orca configuration file to read the data.

The input data for Orca needs to be of the form:

timestamp column1_name column2_name ....
1038331729 1.24455  44.4544554 ....

timestamp is the number of seconds since 1970 and is printed by
C's or Perl's time() call.

Best,
Blair

The string has been removed from the Orca source code in the
Subversion repository, revision 167.  The next release of Orca
will contain this fix.

Renaat,

You may want to check for odd filenames in /dev/dsk and /dev/rdsk.  I
recall that could cause some problems with orcallator.se.

Subject: [Orca-users] trying to plot but getiting empty plots


I just found out about ORCA this past weekend and it's what I was looking
for.
Now the problem, I think I have syntax issues with my configuration file or
my data file format:

Here is my config file:

group neptunestat2 {
find_files /otp/orca/hearsay/neptunestat.txt2
#column_description first_line
column_description CallsPerHour ActivePorts ErrorFreeCalls UnexpectedEvent
BusyErrors LatencyErrors RecoErrors OtherErrors DisconnectErrors
#date_source column_name timestamp
date_source file_mtime
interval 300
}

plot {
title %g Call Load Statistics
source neptunestat2
data CallsPerHour
line_type line3
y_legend Calls/Hours
data_min 0
data_max 40000
color 00ff00
}


The data file looks like:

CallsPerHour ActivePorts ErrorFreeCalls UnexpectedEvent BusyErrors
LatencyErrors RecoErrors OtherErrors DisconnectErrors
