It is on the same line. Thanks for the help!

Thanks for the pointer! It makes some sense to me. But I have the ciscocpu external script reporting its output under the cpu column, will that have any effect on what I'm trying to accomplish? I mean if I create a custom rrd script for this, will it interfere with my windows/unix hosts cpu graphs that are already being generated?
The way hobbitd_larrd works, then the external scripts can only be invoked for status messages that it does not know how to handle. Since "cpu" is well-known and handled internally in hobbitd_larrd, a script cannot be used to process "cpu" status messages.
Do I need to configure it to report under its own column?
If you want to do it with a script: Yes.
Here is what the status message looks like from the ciscocpu script:
@@status#28646|1108591336.263764|10.10.10.22||WAN.jvbs-router.atg.com|cp
u|1108593136|green||green|1108550383|0||0| status WAN,jvbs-router,atg,com.cpu green Wed Feb 16 16:02:16 CST 2005 <br>CPU 5 min average: 4%
Wouldn't be hard to add support for this in the standard hobbitd_larrd handler. Is that "CPU 5 min average" on a line by itself, or is it just your mail program that added a newline between the "status ..." and "<br>CPU 5 min average..." ?
