I was hoping you can give me some advice in regard to graphing data.
I have data coming in that is posted in xymon with HTML tags. I need to parse the data out and post it into rrdtool then display it on the status page. I am fairly new to xymon, in BB I used bb-larrd.pl to parse the data and post it into rrd. What is the best way of doing it in xymon?
I think there are several ways of accomplishing this in xymon if I am not mistaken:
As the data comes into xymon and displays on the status message, I can parse out the data that I need and send it through the rrd channelI could also within the script that generates the data include an rrd module that will create the rrd file and post the results that I need directly to the rrdtool, but then I need to include it where so it can appear on the status page
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Here is an example of the data that I want to graph. This is how it appears on the status page.
