It is possible that your problem stems from the fact that /tmp is type
"none" and that a grep looking for /dev would fail. I'm not exactly sure
what Xymon looks for, but I had to manually change some scripts
associated with BB to look for even ZFS filesystems which do not have
devices under / (or at least they don't appear to from df's POV).
