OK, It's working with an external monitor now. Nice to know the principle works. However I'm still a bit worried about possible performance impact when using this on al larger scale.

    I have been working in Support for 7 years, and have never looked at scripted monitors.

    Nothing I have seen leads me to believe that it supports anything more than send/expect commands - ie they do not support the full range of TCL scripting available in expect.

    All you can do is scale it up and monitor - keep the check intervals large.
