Hi.

We have a few solaris hosts, and I had to override the vmstat1 definition for them, since it did not work. But everything looks good now. Thanks.

I don't think it will be a problem for Windows hosts, since they
don't have a "vmstat" graph at all.

However, if you have a server with a vmstat graph, but it is one
of those that don't have data for the "vmstat1" graph (with the
disk I/O), then the graph for that host will break. But if you
only have Linux or Solaris servers, then it should work fine.

(All of this dates back to the historical roots of Xymon, where
the "vmstat" data that was collected from the clients was stored
in an RRD file that used different formats depending on what
OS the data was from. I should have changed that when Hobbit was
invented, but instead I stayed compatible with the old data...)
