Hi all,

I've not used the name "temperature" for this test because it is
obnoxiously long, instead substituting "temp" for the test name. I've
since found that Xymon will automatically graph my temperature tests if
I use the name "temperature" instead of temp. But, I still have no
desire to do that. Would changing it to "temp" require me to edit the
source code and recompile, or is this in config files? I can't find
anything on the web that necessarily addresses this.
How are you collecting this info?

devmon has quite a few templates that have a 'temp' test, and the example 
entries for hobbitgraph.cfg shipped with it should work for all the devices 
for which temp tests are provided (many cisco routers/switches, HP servers, 
Dell servers, APC UPSs).

Regards,
Buchan
