A Special thanks to Michael and Glynn in teaching me about Nagios.
I misinterrepted the command definition for the
process-service-perfdata.
# #command_line /usr/bin/printf "%b"
"$LASTSERVICECHECK$\t$HOSTNAME$\t$SERVICEDESC$\t$SERVICESTATE$\t$SE
RVICEATTEMPT$\t$SERVICESTATETYPE$\t$SERVICEEXECUTIONTIME$\t$SERVICELATEN
CY$\t$SERVICEOUTPUT$\t$SERVICEPERFDATA$\ n"
>> /var/log/nagios/service-perfdata.out
# command_line /etc/nagios/nagiosgraph-0.8.2/insert.pl
"$LASTSERVICECHECK$||$HOSTNAME$||$SERVICEDESC$||
$SERVICEDESC$||$SERVICEOUTPUT$||$SERVICEPERFDATA$"
# }
#
##
define command {
command_name process-service-perfdata
command_line /usr/bin/perl
/etc/nagios/nagiosgraph-0.8.2/insert.pl
}
I believe I am now getting the correct output with only a few errors.
What is an illegal attempt? See below.

Enabling perfdata? I have:
What I meant is, I use nagiosweb for web interface to the config files
and was having a similar problem, couldn't get the rrds to go
automagically, and what I noticed was that nagiosweb still had perfdata
disabled even though I had the same settings as below...so I thought
maybe you might be running something else too...
process_performance_data=1 ::Is this necessary since
######service_perfdata_command=process-service-perfdata is commented
out? (YES)
service_perfdata_file=/var/adm/logs/nagios/service-perfdata
service_perfdata_file_mode=a
service_perfdata_file_processing_interval=30
service_perfdata_file_processing_command=process-service-perfdata
then,
define command {
command_name process-service-perfdata
command_line /usr/bin/perl
/etc/nagios/nagiosgraph-0.8.2/insert.pl
"$HOSTNAME$||$SERVICEDESC$||$SERVICEDESC$||$SERVICEOUTPUT$||$SERVICEPERF
DATA$" (these variables aren't necessary here)
}

Do y9ou run anything else like nagiosweb perhaps?? Check to ensure that
perfdata is actually enabled. I had the trouble of using nagiosweb and
it was keeping perfdata disabled even though I had it enabled in
nagios.cfg

I made the changes that you suggested. Still no success. I was able to
create the rrd's after manaully running the insert.pl as the nagios
user. Then, I had to revert back to my original serviceextinfo.cfg to
see the graphs. Now I need to determine how to have this run
automagically.

You're welcome, hope that helps...as for previous work...not sure, I
have only been with the clinic for 3 months and before that with
AmericanGreetings.com so we may have met there actually

I have followed all of the instructions from Wolfgang, the INSTALL file
from nagiosgraph-0.8.2 and any readme that I can find. The
nagiosgraph.log is empty and the directory that I specify for the
"rrddir" is empty. If I run the /usr/share/rrdtool/examples/perftest.pl
it generates a database. Here is what I have:
Nagios.cfg
process_performance_data=1
service_perfdata_command=process-service-perfdata <-- not supposed to be
defined, comment this out as you define the
service_perfdata_file_processing_command below

........ shouldn't matter tho I have read mixed reviews I have the
path to perl before the insert.pl and you can remove the
"$LASTSERCIVE...." Its already defined in the service template

rrddir = /var/adm/logs/nagios/rrd
mapfile = /etc/nagios/nagiosgraph-0.8.2/map
perflog = /var/adm/logs/nagios/perfdata.log <-- define this the same as
above in the nagios.cfg (i.e.
service_perfdata_file=/var/adm/logs/nagios/service-perfdata
)
stylesheet = /usr/share/nagios/stylesheets/nagiosgraph.css
insert.pl
my $configfile = '/etc/nagios/nagiosgraph-0.8.2/nagiosgraph.conf';
Below shows that the nagiosgraph.log and rrddir is empty

Make those few changes, stop and restart nagios and take a look at the
perfdata file you defined above to see if data is getting dumped there
and check the nagiosgraph.log
