[Xymon] disk reporting issue on xymon 4.3.0-beta2

I appreciate the help, but I already had the following set for the values in hobbitserver.cfg

MAXLINE="32768"
MAXMSG_STATUS="1310720"
MAXMSG_DATA="1310720"
MAXMSG_CLIENT="1310720"

I've had to increase them because we have a few servers that have just huge amounts of process listings and we were having truncation problems with them set lower.

Definitely an issue with the white space, the client thinks the last available column is percentage.

Read this thread, try it out:

There is a resolution to this issue.  You need to check the archives.  I had this problem, but I made a configuration adjustment and it went away.  Sorry, I'm not in a position to search the archive.

Is that form the client data that Xymon is parsing or the box's shell?

What distro is the client running on?  Can you share the client data (just [df])?

Has anyone seen similar issues as below?  Very rarely, we get false positives due to disk and process data coming from hosts being somewhat garbled.  However, across several hundred hosts, it happens just often enough to be annoying.

Below is an example of the disk issue from one of our xymon clients.
As you can see, the disks were actually not above 30% utilized, and the alert cleared the next cycle.  Just wondering if this has been resolved in later xymon versions?  We are running xymon 4.3.0-0.beta2
