I've added a couple of custom Data Sources to one of my hosts by writing a bash 
script, adding it to /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf with exec, and adding the correct OID 
to an SNMP Data Source in Zenoss (2.0.0). I've added a GAUGE DataPoint and when 
I graph it everything looks fine. So far so good.

Here's where I run into trouble: If I add a threshold for this DataSource then 
I get weird behavior. For instance, I'm monitoring the temp of our server room. 
The OID I use returns the current temp in a format like 72.05 so I set up a 
threshold with no min value, a max value of 90.0. But when I turn on the 
threshold every time it checks the value, the threshold generates an event with 
a message like this: 
> Server Room Temp threshold of 90.0 exceeded: current value 39.00


I was expecting values greater than 90 to trigger an event so I'm not really 
sure what's going wrong here. I've read and reread the docs and I can't figure 
out my mistake. Does anyone have any ideas? Am I making a boneheaded beginner's 
mistake somewhere? 

Thanks for the help,
Nate
