I wonder what I'm missing here.  For the site I want to graph the time on, I
have created the "sitePageCheck" DataSource with Source Type set to COMMAND
and the command being 

/usr/local/zenoss/libexec/check_http -H www.oneofourwebsites.com -I
aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd -t 60 -u /Default.aspx -s "A test string"

I then created a DataPoint named "time" and a graph that uses
sitePageCheck_time as its Data Source.

When I run the command from the command line, I get the expected results,
but I'm not seeing any graphs with this configuration.  What am I missing?

Zenoss Version is 1.1.2

Subject: [zenoss-users] Re: check_http - DataPoint Warning/Critical/Timeout?

after some more experimenting i realized what zenbird was saying

the values do appear to be space delineated and are not as simple as a=b;

what i decyphered was this

name=value;;;scale

so the time variable looks like this

time=1.123456;;;0.000000

and if you were using a "code" variable with whole numbers it would look
like this

code=200;;;0

and if you put them together it would look like this 

time=1.123456;;;0.000000 code=200;;;0

i saw it working and collecting data with the various datapoints and
graphing the information. I hope someone else finds this information usefull
because it was a pain to figure out the syntax with out documentation

I left the office yesterday and it was running but then i came back today
and it appeared to have stopped after i left the day before, possibly after
i closed my ssh window to the machine that i was using to test the scripts
functionality?

 I have done the chmod command and verified that it has executable
permissions. It has worked at one point in time, just wondering if anyone
has had similar problems and could share some advice.

thanks
