This is not a custom command datasource. It's a BUILTIN datasource, using a python script Chet Luther provided (and I modified slightly) run via cron... It directly writes the rrd file. I'm guessing Zenoss isn't actually checking the RRD for thresholds... But is getting them as data comes in somewhere... that misses this unusual sort of datasource. -- James Pulver Information Technology Area Supervisor LEPP Computer Group Cornell University
