It wasn't called iostat, I called it diskstat. I plead old-age. :-)
Check here
http://www.xymonton.org/monitors:diskstat.ksh
and scroll down to Installation, Step 4.
You can see how I did it.
I think there was a bug though. You had to make the entry <desired number>+1
The example I gave below would give you 3 lines, while the ::7 in the
diskstat test on xymonton (see link above) gives 6 lines per graph.
A neat trick, if you ever want to see more, or all the lines on a graph
again, is to click on the graph.
This will show the 4 longer term graphs.
Look at the URL.
Somewhere in the URL you will see something like &first=1&count=5
Change count=5 to be count-10, or however many graphs you want on a single
page. Hit enter, and it will redraw with the other lines.

It is configurable.
In the GRAPHS= in xymonserver, you have definition for your graph.
It should look something like
GRAPHS="..,mygraph,..."
Change that to
GRAPHS="..,mygraph::4,.."
(Or at least I think it was there. I don't have my setup in front of me)
Check on xymonton. One of the scripts I contributed - I think iostat - has
this set.
Experiment with different values, until you find one that looks good.
Normally 4 to 6 lines per graph looks good.
Less looks lonely, more gets a little busy

Why do some graphs such as disk drive space have only 4 entries per graph
while others like temperature lump all entries into one graph?
I have machines with 10 or 15 drives and they graph with only 4 disks per
graph. But I have devices with temperature and all 14 are lumped on one
graph (very hard to read).
Thanks Paul Jordan
