Hi Blair,

I installed the RICHPse tool on my (SUN) Client System, in there is
orcallator directory which has orcallator.se
I did..
root:opt/RICHPse/orcallator> nohup se orcallator.se &

This started creating nohup.out which contains 

 timestamp    locltime    DNnsrkcmdit           uptime
1060206000 17:40:00 wwwwwwwwwww  1063730
1060206300 17:45:00 wwwwwwwwwww  1064030
1060206600 17:50:00 wwwwwwwwwww  1064330
1060206900 17:55:00 wwwwwwwgwww  1064630

1060207500 18:05:00 wwwwwwwwwww  1065230

Is this the data which should be copied to /opt/orca/var/rrd/orcallator
directory in (Redhat 8) Central Server system?

http://sunsite.uakom.sk/sunworldonline/swol-03-1996/swol-03-perf.html
This link article talks about precollator.se and percol and talks about
much more data columns. Should I use precollator for CPU usage .

Below is the error when I try ot start the orca on Server. What is
orca.state file which I am missing?

I really appreciate your help. I am just newbie in PERL and data
collection world.

Thanks

No, just orcallator.se and SE.

This rule is a short cut.  If you look at the Makefile rule, you'll
see
this:

orcallator_run_at_boot: all
        -$(RM) /etc/init.d/orcallator /etc/rc0.d/K01orcallator
        -$(RM) /etc/rc1.d/K01orcallator /etc/rc3.d/S99orcallator
        $(INSTALL) -m 0744 S99orcallator /etc/init.d/orcallator
        ln /etc/init.d/orcallator /etc/rc0.d/K01orcallator
        ln /etc/init.d/orcallator /etc/rc1.d/K01orcallator
        ln /etc/init.d/orcallator /etc/rc3.d/S99orcallator


Just run these commands to get orcallator.se to start at boot
on your system.  Of course, S99orcallator has been configured
by configure to know where orcallator.se is installed on your
system.

Best,
Blair
