1 test, 1 graph, multiple lines
Hi ! I'm new to this ML, and I'm almost a script dev (almost is the most accurate word in this mail). I created a script to monitor game servers activity. It reports the number of player on a server. The ouput is formated as it : &global_color $machine.$test <many words> &color server1 is OK|NOK Players: <INTEGER> I followed the ~(hobbit|xymon)/help/howtograph.html help file, and i get my graph when I monitor 1 game server. My script supports several game servers monitoring, but I can't find a way to have graph for all of them, like the http tests do (1 test, many URL tested, and one graph with all URL on it). Can someone help me ? Sorry for my poor english, I'm better in speaking my homeland language ;)

As long as you will not be changing the number of game servers you monitor, send a status message like this:
&global_color $machine.$test <many words> &color server1 is OK|NOK server1_players: <INTEGER> &color server2 is OK|NOK server2_players: <INTEGER>
Make sure you have a new line after the last entry. Remove any rrd files if you have changed the number of servers you want to graph.

Okay, thank your for your help. I need some precisions : -How could I define the graph in ~xymon|hobbit/server/etc/hobbitgraphs.cfg to graph all servers, considering the number of server is unknow (and the variable too)
Example : &global_color $machine.$test <many words> &color server1 is OK|NOK John_players: <INTEGER> &color server2 is OK|NOK Mickael_players: <INTEGER>

Do i really need to use only integer value (I'm writing a script to monitor temperature and voltages)

After some tests and researches, I think the best way for me to manage my graphs is to use several RRD files for 1 test, each containing data for one of my value. I read the doc : http://hobbitmon.sourceforge.net/docs/man8/hobbitd_rrd.8.html But I'm not sure to understand how I could manage this : "If you want to store the data in multiple RRD files, the script can just print out more sequences of data-set definitions, RRD filenames and RRD values. If the data-set definitions are identical to the previous definition, you need not print the data-set definitions again - just print a new RRD filename and value. "
Can someone help me about it ?
