[Xymon] Graphing problem

[David Welker]

Maybe I have a unique problem, but I'm hoping someone can help me out as I
have scoured the archives, tried all kinds of combinations, and still
haven't found the perfect solution.

Problem:
I have a column that reports a list of system and user processes (my-conn).
I have a script that gets the summary data into a file (counts) in NCV
format.
I would like to report the summary data as a graph on the same column as
the list of systems and processes (my-conn)

I initially had both my-conn and counts=ncv in my TEST2RRD variable, which
allowed my graph to show up,
 but I was getting all kinds of DS errors with the my-conn rrd, even after
making it type GAUGE.
I also was sending status messages.
I tried  sending data messages, since I don't want a separate column
displayed with the summary data, which didn't seem to help.
Sometimes I get links on the page, or sometimes I get the graph on the
trends page, but not the column page.

I've tried all kinds of variation on the theme...
TEST2RRD=counts=ncv, my-conn=counts
TEST2RRD=counts, my-conn
TEST2RRD=counts
TEST2RRD=my-conn=ncv

GRAPH=counts
GRAPH=my-conn
GRAPH=my-conn=ncv

Bottom line, can this be done?  If so, what should I be sending, and what
should the variable values be?

Thanks!
David
