Representing disk data for graphing



I'm interested in changing the way that I report disk utilization for mainframe based operating systems (VM and VSE) so that it can be graphed by RRD. The basic message format seems right, but the graph is not coming out properly. Here is the message text:

 11 Oct 2006 07:45:23 Disk/SFS Utilization OK

Filesystem kbytes used avail capacity Mounted as
green /dev/0124 14400 720 13680 5.0% /440RES/DRCT

green /VMSYS/group2  120088       5268     114820   4.4%   /SFS/VMSYS
green /VMSYSU/group2   4280        488       3792  11.4%   /SFS/VMSYSU
green /VMSYSU/group3  71896          0      71896   0.0%   /SFS/VMSYSU

The 'green' indicator on the left is a green icon put there to easily spot an offender. Is that messing up the parsing of the message for graphing purposes? Or is it possibly the decimal points in the percentages?

The graph is coming up with a single data point called 2006.
