PerfParse should currently be limited only by the Performance Data
returned by the plugins.

Run your plugin from the command line and see if it outputs performance
data (some are not yet configured to do so).
If the command returns performance data, it should appear in PerfParse.

/usr/local/nagios/libexec: ./check_load -w 3,3,3 -c 5,5,5
OK - load average: 1.56, 1.60, 1.68|load1=3D1;3;5;0 load5=3D1;3;5;0
load15=3D1;3;5;0

My check_load plugin returns the output shown above. Everything before
the '|' is the old-style output, everything after is performance data.=20
If you see performance data but this is not showing graphs in PerfParse,
submit a bug report at
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=3D109355&atid=3D653190.=20
If the plugins you are concerned about don't show a pipe and data
similar to that shown above, then the plugin is the problem.

If you find that your plugins are not producing performance data, there
are a few things that you can do:
-Make sure you have the latest Nagios Plugins from CVS
(http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=3D29880)
-Wait for the next version of stable Nagios Plugins to be released
(http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=3D29880)
-Edit the plugins to produce performance data and submit patches back to
the development team
