hi all,
i am trying to have collections done through an xml file . is there any functionality in opennms to do so or would i have to write a plugin for the same ??? Can the HTTP collector be used here??? Fetching the xml files is not an issue , the only issue is where to parse them and how to store the data in the rrd/jrb files.
any kind of help would be appreciated .

Hi,

i guess this should be not a big deal to do a datacollection from xml. You can build a really small PHP page with simple XML or a Java and JSP

        http://php.net/manual/de/book.simplexml.php

If you build an HTTP datacollection you can build a very simple webpage with a key value structure.

The output from the PHP XML parser should produce an output like this

I hope it helps
