I fairly simple script to run prtdiag -v and report RED if it returns with exit 1

On Xymon client:
1. Copy the script to $XYMONHOME/ext/xymon-prtdiag.ksh
2. Add it to the $XYMONHOME/etc/clientlaunch.cfg file

[prtdiag]
        ENVFILE $XYMONCLIENTHOME/etc/xymonclient.cfg
        CMD $XYMONCLIENTHOME/ext/xymon-prtdiag.ksh
        LOGFILE $XYMONCLIENTLOGS/xymon-prtdiag.log
        INTERVAL 5m

#
# PURPOSE
# This is an very simple script/test, but extremely useful.
# It detects ANY hardware failure in Sun SPARC systems by using the standard 'prtdiag'
# command.  Prtdiag exits with a value of
# '1' if there is an hardware error, otherwise with an exit code of '0'.
# This way, no model/platform specific (i.e. V240/V890/15K, etc.) customizations are required,
# as the output of 'prtdiag'
# differs on most systems. It works fine on Fujitsu-Siemens systems too.

then

# What is this doing?

#
# AT THIS POINT WE HAVE OUR RESULTS.  NOW WE HAVE TO SEND IT TO

# THE FIRST LINE IS STATUS INFORMATION... STRUCTURE IMPORANT!
# THE REST IS FREE-FORM - WHATEVER YOU'D LIKE TO SEND...
#
LINE="status $MACHINE.$TEST $COLOR `date`

$RM -f $TEMPFILE

# NOW USE THE XYMON COMMAND TO SEND THE DATA ACROSS
$XYMON $XYMSRV "$LINE"                     # SEND IT TO XYMONSRV
