I wrote about first some months ago. The test "msgs" show a part of logs.
Some times it contains <> symbols. It recognized as broken html tags and
it is not displayed by web browsers. "<>" should be changed to "<>"
when web pages generaded. For example maillog can contans E-Mails:
"to=<user-0e44a149431a@xymon.invalid>".
It is safer to use the 'client data' view which shows you the raw output.
The second. I found it yestarday. Some linux distro switched to procps-ng.
Its vmstat is not display "st":
vmstat from procps-ng 3.3.7:
procs -----------memory---------- ---swap-- -----io---- -system-- ----cpu----
r b swpd free buff cache si so bi bo in cs us sy id wa
0 0 62696 49948 18076 418796 0 0 12 8 2 1 1 1 98 0
vmprocps version 3.2.8:
procs -----------memory---------- ---swap-- -----io---- --system-- -----cpu-----

3 0 58012 196584 508612 808616 0 0 106 41 52 31 5 1 93 1 0
vmstat's graph in xymon's trands is broken with vmstat from procps-ng 3.3.7.
I don't see it as broken. Debian wheezy uses procps-ng 3.3.3, and there
are no problems getting a vmstat graph from that. E.g. this is the setup
at www.xymon.com.
