Help with disk monitoring

Hello,
I have recently inherited a sizable Hobbit environment so please have
patience with my general ignorance of all things Hobbit. Our Hobbit
works really well except for one notable exception and I can't figure
out why. We have a series of boxes that run an application and for some
reason these systems will not monitor the /opt file system and alert us
when /opt goes over 90% even though these boxes have the same Hobbit
setup like the others on the server side and the client side.
The only difference I can see is that the /opt file system is mapped
differently on these systems. Most systems use something like
/dev/sda5 120G 82G 73% /opt
But the problem systems use
/dev/mapper/sysvg-opt 120G 82G 32G 73% /opt
Also the file systems from these problem servers show up differently as
well. The standard file system mounts are displayed without an issues
but the LVM maps display the mount point but nothing else
/dev/mapper/sysvg-opt
/dev/mapper/sysvg-var
/dev/cciss/c0d0p1 2016016 216060 1697544 12% /
/dev/cciss/c0d0p2 3020172 950024 1916728 34% /usr
The problem servers also have the follow error in the client side log
Mon Dec 11 15:53:21 2006 bb-local.sh /opt/Big_Brother/bb/bin/bb-disk.sh:
line 180: test: : integer expression expected

The lines above and below line 180 of bb-disk.sh

then
if test "$DISKPCT" -ge "$DFPANICVAL"
# ABOVE PANIC, RED ALERT !!!
then

MARKLEVEL=$DFPANICVAL
HIGHMARK="PANIC"
GIFCOLOR="&red"
REDLINE="${GIFCOLOR} ${DISKNAME}

vel (${MARKLEVEL}%)

else
By default all servers are set to alert at 90% and 95% percent.
Thanks in advance for everyone's help
