[Xymon] combine status and data in same column with graph

Hi All,

I sent some text to status channel and some NCVs to the data channel for same test/columnname.

So on the same script I have the followings

... $XYMON $XYMSRV "status $MACHINE.$COLUMN $COLOR date

  ${MSG}
  "

$XYMON $XYMSRV "data $MACHINE.$COLUMN

foo: 1 bar: 2 "

Then I placed the columnname=ncv in TEST2RRD and restarted xymon

rrdtool dump $COLUMN.rrd shows all the text from status msgs in it, yikes!

How do I tell xymon to look at only the data channel for the rrds and leave the status channel alone for this test/columnname?

Thanks
