I just got started with zenoss today. Grabbed the vmware image for 2.2.4. Most 
of the basics are pretty straightforward, at least for data that goes into rrd 
graphs.

I'm looking for a shove in the general direction I need to go, because it's 
just not jumping out at me in the docs.

I have a few string/ip address values stored on some endpoints that can be 
retrieved via snmp.

Things like software version, call agent ip address, etc. I'd like to store 
these values and have them displayed on (preferably) the Status screen of the 
device.


It would also be handy to display the current status of a few other values that 
I can get via SNMP, but no need to graph them.

For example:
I have devices that have and integer value for PowerStatus.
0 = Normal
1 = Low Battery
2 = AC Power Fail

I can raise events with thresholds, that's very straightforward. However, when 
troubleshooting a device it would be nice to display this values status right 
on the status screen. This particular value we don't want to have raise an 
event, or even change the "severity" of the device. We just want the 
information readily available.

I also have a couple of questions regarding severity:

1) Is it possible to define more custom levels of severity?
2) Is it possible to redefine the severity colors displayed on either the 
zenoss map or more importantly, the google maps display (I can't tell red from 
green on google maps)

Many thanks.
