Thanks much Jeremy!
That's what I wanted to confirm, if I customize the [disk] graph, then would we lose those default graphs vs. just adding the IO stats to the same [disk] graphs.
PS – I'm using devmon too, but just getting into it. It sounds like devmon may give you better/other IO stats vs making custom Xymon graphs for disk io from the OS information provided.
Regards,
Don K

Anything is possible.
If so, what's the best way to do that?
You could replace the graph.cfg entry for [disk] with one of the graph definitions provide with the script (eg [diskstat-reads]). But then you would lose existing graphs (if any) of disk space utilisation.
I want them both, so I have a separate "diskio" dot (actually fed in from devmon, but the principle is the same).
