I was wondering; is there a standard on whether to include Severity in the 
status text? Several of the plugins seem to preface their results with a 
severity, as in: 

OK: blah blah blah
CRITICAL: foo foo foo

Others leave it out, instead relying on the severity field in Nagios to
show that data based on the return code.

/var is foo% full

Is there a standard or guideline on when to use either format in new
plugins?

Thanks,
