Hello,

So I had a command based data source in Zenoss 3.2.1. It's very simple and consists of 2 datapoints and a threshold. I copied it over to Zenoss 4.2.0 and although it is running, the perf data is not showing in the graphs (nan). Here's the debug output from zencommand:

I can see that the values are blank so I guess that is why there is no performance data, but can anyone tell me why? The output of the script is:
echo "|delayed:$delayed" "queued:$queued"
And this worked in 3.2.1

All help greatly appreciated.

Jim

The problem seems to be the colon between variable name and variable value.  If you replace the colon with = then I think you will find it works.
Cheers,
