Hi there (Adam?)
(Reply from an Adam who didn't post the original question ... !)
I'm not familiar with hobbit-plugins, but I'll make some
suggestions that might help.

Probably worth reaching out to the maintainer of the package at
hobbit- user-7d55b9b69b09@xymon.invalid <mailto:hobbit-
user-7d55b9b69b09@xymon.invalid>.

I raised a bug report a few months ago on the Ubuntu tracker

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hobbit-plugins/+bug/2150763

given that the underling problem is incompatability with sudo-rs which
isn't (yet?) the default sudo implementation in Debian. But with this
kind of thing I'm never quite sure whether to report to Ubuntu or Debian.

To the original question: do you actually have an "HP Smart Array block
driver" device that you need to monitor using cciss_vol_status ? Do you
even have /usr/bin/cciss_vol_status installed? If not you can safely
just remove that line from /etc/sudoers.d/xymon (or, see Jeremy's answer 
if you do want to monitor such a device)
