Hello guys. i want to monitor the custom properties in linux server. for instance i want to run a script in the linux server and then create a threshold monitor on it. if my script just has a one output the zenoss work fine with it but i couldn't use multiple outputs! this one of my main scripts output:

DSA=0 logloaderd=0 dcm-daemon=1 home=1 officeauto=1 gaas=1 report=1 workflow=1 messenger=1 archive=1 GamWS=1 menu=1 sws=1 WebCache=1 WebCacheAdmin=1 HTTP_Server=1

i want zenoss warn me when one of them is down. thank you.

Why not just have the script create an event with zensendevent CLI

Have a look at my recent append here - http://www.zenoss.org/forum/3551 - with a little command test script. You need your script to echo to stdout, your variables (which does appear to be what you are doing). You then need to create datapoints for your datasource in the performance template, where the datapoint EXACTLY matches the name of your variables eg. DSA, dcm-daemon, home..... etc

Thank you guys.
let me explain where is my problem:
i wrote this shell script:
su - oracle -c'/oracleAS10g/product/opmn/bin/opmnctl status' | tr -d ' ' | awk 'BEGIN{FS="|";}{if($2!="" && NR>3){tempItemId = $2;if (tempItemId in itemID){if ($4 == "Alive"){itemID[tempItemId] = itemID[tempItemId] * 1;}else{itemID[tempItemId] = itemID[tempItemId] * 0;}}else{if ($4 == "Alive") {itemID[tempItemId] = 1;}else{itemID[tempItemId] = 0;}}}}END{printf("OK|");for (x in itemID){printf("%s=%s ",x,itemID[x]) ;}}'
this shell script out put is something like this:
OK|GamWS=1 logloaderd=0 WebCacheAdmin=1 archive=1 workflow=1 report=1 officeauto=1 WebCache=1 menu=1 dcm-daemon=0 DSA=0 process-type=0 gaas=1 home=1 HTTP_Server=1 sws=1 messenger=1

then i create a data source like this:
http://i62.tinypic.com/25i0vhc.jpg
but when i execute the script again my server this error happens:
http://i61.tinypic.com/zk0pye.png

i tested almost every thing and i have no idea how can execute my script with remotely on my server.
i appreciate any sort of help.
