Re: [opennms-devel] xml collection configuration

[Alejandro G. <ag...@sy...>]

Hello,

Take a closer look at http://www.opennms.org/wiki/XML_Collector#XML_Collector_configuration

In order to start collecting data, no matter which kind of collector you want to use (i.e., SNMP, JMX, JDBC, HTTP, XML, XMP, etc), you must associate a service to your node. The following link might help:
http://www.opennms.org/wiki/Tutorial_Data_Collection

Basically, In order to associate a service to a node it depends on how you added the node to the system (Capsd or Provisiond). Then you must associate the collector you want (in this case the XmlCollector) to that particular service in collectd-configuration.xml.

Hope that help.

Alejandro.
