[Xymon] TEST2RRD variable too long in xymonserver.cfg file

[Nelis, Wim]

> I have a lot of custom scripts  and the line of TEST2RRD is  very long, sometimes is hard to find the ncv definitions in the line.

> Can I split the TEST2RRD in two o more lines?


Yes, you can. In file xymonserver.cfg, an "includir" directive is used. For each additional test in Xymon, a seperate file is created. For instance, for the additional test named "env", there is a file called "env.cfg", containing two lines:


TEST2RRD+=",env=devmon"
GRAPHS+=",env"


Note, the use of a comma at the beginning of those symbol definitions. See the documentation of xymonserver.cfg, the paragraph named DESCRIPTION. The same trick should be usable within file xymonserver.cfg too, enabling you to split up the definition of TEST2RRD.
