2. Configure xymon client to make the test, add this content to clientlaunch.cfg:

[mysqlperf]

      ENVFILE $XYMONCLIENTHOME/etc/xymonclient.cfg
      CMD $XYMONCLIENTHOME/ext/xymon-mysqlperf.sh
      LOGFILE $XYMONCLIENTLOGS/xymon-mysqlperf.log
      INTERVAL 5m

#### EXPLANATION ####

#
#For explanation about the monitored mysql variables, please see http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/opensource/10-mysql-variables-that-you-should-monitor/56.
#
#ADDING NEW VARIABLE
#
#To add new monitorable value from mysql performance table, you just need to put the name of it on MONITORADOS.
#Create new measurement variables into the "CHECK" function.
#Still in the function "CHECK" add a new case, followed by the next value of the case. See case 8, copy it to be easyer.
#Voalá.

#By default the color yellow or red start when the definitions values get over of the values setted.
