Make templates use data queries #44

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
A lot of templates need a data query.

  * mysql, memcached -- you can run several instances on one server.
  * disk usage
  * disk I/O 
  * network interfaces

In general, it would be good if most (all?) of the templates use a unified
way of generating data queries.  When meta/make-template.pl is run, it can
be run with or without the option to generate corresponding queries; each
meta definitions file can specify whether it should have data queries by
default.  The reason for this is because if you don't have multiple
instances on a single server, having to run the query is kind of a pain.

I'd still like a way to graph them all on one graph, but that only works
for very small values of N!

This is a rabbit hole.  Data queries are a nightmare mess hack, even by Cacti 
standards.
