[Xymon] combine status and data in same column with graph

[Asif Iqbal]

Hi All,

I sent some text to status channel and some NCVs to the data channel for
same test/columnname.

So on the same script I have the followings

...
$XYMON $XYMSRV "status $MACHINE.$COLUMN $COLOR `date`

      ${MSG}
      "
$XYMON $XYMSRV "data $MACHINE.$COLUMN

  foo: 1
  bar: 2
"

Then I placed the columnname=ncv in TEST2RRD and restarted xymon

rrdtool dump $COLUMN.rrd shows all the text from status msgs in it, yikes!

How do I tell xymon to look at only the data channel for the rrds and
leave the status channel alone for this test/columnname?

Thanks

A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
