[Xymon] Bug? - files test but no graphs?

Hello,

I noticed that the 'files' test shows a small icon near the bottom
centre of the web page. This is in fact the 'zoom' icon usually
associated with a graph. However, the 'files' test does not seem to
produce a graph (on my test system anyway). The demo Xymon server at
xymon.net also shows this problem (e.g. at
http://xymon.net/xymon-cgi/svcstatus.sh?HOST=jorn.hswn.dk&SERVICE=files
The icon is just under the 'Client data available' text.)

My first question is should the 'files' test be producing some sort of
graph?

It seems that by default the TEST2RRD and GRAPHS variables in
xymonserver.cfg contain the 'files' test name, and so Xymon expects
there to be some sort of graph. Taking out the 'files' entry from these
variables, and the little icon disappears :-) So possibly this is a bug
in xymonserver.cfg as supplied in the source code.





John.
