Re: [Devmon] Store OID output and associate that with particular devices (transforms)

[Ken C. <kco...@ry...>]

I too have run into this as well (poll result is not an integer), at which
point I end up writing and external script which I just cron and it updates
the xymon display.

I try to use devmon as much as possible for polling, but sometimes there
are special cases in your environment and snmp poll resutls and/or table
builds that don't always line up, so I just script it on the side and pump
the output into xymon.

I currently have over 200 "side scripts" that are special case or devmon
can't deal with.
