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? Do I
need to configure it to report under its own column?
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%
Thanks!

Did you look at the "custom rrd data" section in the hobbitd_larrd
manpage? It may be easier to do than you think. THere is no perl
involved (assuming your ciscocpu script is already running on the hobbit
server and displaying the data (but not the graphs)) and an example
shell script is provided.
