I have been looking to see if we can get some 'iostat' data into Xymon.
However, I see that the graphs.cfg and xymonserver.cfg files already
seem to be ready for an 'iostat' test. I also see that the code has a
'xymond/rrd/do_iostat.c' module.

However, I am not seeing any iostat graphs anywhere.
The iostat code in Xymon hasn't really been working well. The format of the data coming in from the various iostat-implementations in the operating systems have changed over time, and Xymon just hasn't kept up with those changes.

It is something that needs to be looked at sometime ... for now, don't assume that it is working.

Sorry :-(
