the xymon_bacula_check.sh script will run automatically now. The problem was
like you said, using $HOBBITCLIENTHOME instead of $XYMONCLIENTHOME when you
have to add those lines to the clientlaunch.cfg. I didn't catch it the first
time. I'm seeing the test perfectly fine on my xymon server website now, even
on server reboots.
Ok, good to know. That was my first thought.  Going to have to make an update
to that page to identify that issue.

Now I want to edit the actual bacula_check.sh script to show me more info. I
run multiple types of jobs so I want it to display Full, incremental,
differential, ect...
I had already added the "Level" column a long time ago, but never updated that
script on the website. I just uploaded a new one now that includes some minor
changes to the one that was there.
I'm just confused about those numbers, but I believe they represent the column
number of the catalog database correct? so to add job type and level I just
add columns 5 and 6 using the same format as you have here in the script. And
then I have to add those columns to the webpage by editing the JOBHEADER line.
This would be the correct way to go about this correct?
Yes, that will work.  If you d/l the new script, you will see that I added a
"Level" column to the JOBHEADER var and column #6 to the data var.

I have this script running on 8 Bacula servers and I never bothered adding the
Job type (column 5 I think) since 99.99% of the jobs I see are "backup" jobs
and didn't think it was important. :)

Adding it to your status page should take you 20 seconds now that you have it
working.

Good luck!
