retmt: RETrieve Machine Temperature

This client-side script retrieves the CPU and GPU temperatures of a Raspberry Pi 3 and reports them to the xymon server. A rather generic way of reporting the values is used, in which the minimum, the maximum and the average temperature are reported. This method is usable for an arbitrary number of temperature sensors. It is used to report the temperature of a switch with 29 temperature sensors.

At the client side the script and the invocation of the script need to be installed. On the server side an extension of the RRD definitions, an extension of the graph definitions and a configuration of this test in xymon server are needed.
