Zenoss does not understand when you use a nagios performance unit of measurement. I have tried this in 3.2 and 4.2 and it just graphs the values even if I specify one value is MB and one is KB.

Has anyone had this problem and was able to fix it?

Here is a syntax I am using

Test | echo=1MB echo1=100KB

echo and echo1 are my datapoints

Zenoss expects to receive datapoints values in numerical form (only 0-9, +, - and decimal point chars are accepted) so you will have to parse the values returned in standard nagios plugin format and strip any literal chaacters outside the above mentioned set. After that, when you define your graphs you may convert them and add UOM in the graph label.
