Package: collectd-ping Version: 3.10.1-4 Severity: normal -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1
Hi, as collectd starts early, the network is not yet fully configured at this point (autonegotiation still running etc.). So name lookup does not properly work at this point. The ping plugin then gives up and does not record any data. Using the IP address would not solve the problem, as the data is recorded in a file that is named after the reverse lookup for the IP address, so it would be named differently depending on whether lookup is available or not.
