To work the $HDRROOT env setting would have to be set up as a directory path up to "/release/tools/cfg"...
Then when you run the command, whatever is being stored in $HDRROOT would be substituted into the command.
Do you know what the full path name is to ../release/tools/cfg ??

logfetch
LOGFETCH(1) General Commands Manual LOGFETCH(1)
NAME
logfetch - Xymon client data collector
SYNOPSIS
logfetch CONFIGFILE STATUSFILE
DESCRIPTION
logfetch is part of the Xymon client. It is responsible for collecting data from logfiles, and other file-related data, which is then sent
to the Xymon server for analysis.
logfetch uses a configuration file, which is automatically retrieved from the Xymon server. There is no configuration done locally. The
configuration file is usually stored in the $BBHOME/tmp/logfetch.cfg file, but editing this file has no effect since it is re-written with
data from the Xymon server each time the client runs.
logfetch stores information about what parts of the monitored logfiles have been processed already in the $BBHOME/tmp/logfetch.status file.
This file is an internal file used by logfetch, and should not be edited. If deleted, it will be re-created automatically.
SECURITY
logfetch needs read access to the logfiles it should monitor. If you configure monitoring of files or directories through the "file:" and
"dir:" entries in client-local.cfg(5) then logfetch will require at least read-acces to the directory where the file is located. If you
request checksum calculation for a file, then it must be readable by the Xymon client user.
Do NOT install logfetch as suid-root. There is no way that logfetch can check whether the configuration file it uses has been tampered
with, so installing logfetch with suid-root privileges could allow an attacker to read any file on the system by using a hand-crafted con-
figuration file. In fact, logfetch will attempt to remove its own suid-root setup if it detects that it has been installed suid-root.
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
DU Command used to collect information about the size of directories. By default, this is the command du -k. If the local du-command
on the client does not recognize the "-k" option, you should set the DU environment variable in the $BBHOME/etc/hobbitclient.cfg
file to a command that does report directory sizes in kilobytes.
FILES
$BBHOME/tmp/logfetch.cfg
$BBHOME/tmp/logfetch.status
