I stand corrected. We should keep the original metric and just add a new one that excludes robots. We will continue to graph the total 5XXs, but we can graph and alert off the new metric that excludes robots. We are trying to avoid having nagios alert on problems that we have no ability to resolve, and this new metric would far better reflect issues affecting the 'user experience' thus requiring immediate response.
I need a little clarification about Stuart's second comment re: apache vs. +opstats to comment. I am unclear on exactly what is being said there.
