[Xymon] Graphing Question

I was hoping you can give me some advice in regard to graphing data.

I have data coming in that is posted in xymon with HTML tags.  I need to parse the data out and post it into rrdtool then display it on the status page.  I am fairly new to xymon, in BB I used bb-larrd.pl to parse the data and post it into rrd.  What is the best way of doing it in xymon?

I think there are several ways of accomplishing this in xymon if I am not mistaken:


1.      As the data comes into xymon and displays on the status message, I can parse out the data that I need and send it through the rrd channel

2.      I could also within the script that generates the data include an rrd module that will create the rrd file and post the results that I need directly to the rrdtool, but then I need to include it where so it can appear on the status page

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Here is an example of the data that I want to graph.  This is how it appears on the status page.
