The documentation found here:

www.zenoss.com/community/docs/howtos/create-modify-nagios-templates/

describes the process of setting up a command, but fails to explain how to 
capture and use the data returned. At the end of the article it states:

"This completes the setup and configuration of a Nagios style plugin. Please 
refer to the admin guide for specifics on setting up datapoints, thresholds and 
graphs to keep track of your data over time."

I couldn't find any explanation of the format that zenoss expects back from the 
command.  All though the document above is a great guide, I would like a little 
more information.

Example:

check_ping returns:

PING OK - Packet loss = 0%, RTA = 0.38 ms

How do you use these values to:

1. Use the "OK" or "Warning" or "Critical" as a status
2. Use the Packet loss = 0% as a datapoint
3. Use RTA = 0.38 ms as a datapoint 

Has anyone written any further instructions on implementing nagios plugins in a 
Zenoss Env?
