Hi list, we are about to use collectd to fetch various statistics from PostgreSQL. We have a lot of metrics that we want to collect from each database (except for "postgresql" or so). We manage some 50 instances of Postgres with different databases and in this case, it will be quite hard to keep list of databases in sync with collectd configuration.
So we came up with idea of patching the postgresql plugin with a new configuration object "AllDatabases" where one would define queries that should be run against all the databases except for the defined ones (configuration parameter). In this way, we would not need to touch collectd configuration when there is a new database spawned. Is there a better way how to achieve this? Would functionality like this be interesting enough to be merged to upstream? Please CC me, I am already on too many lists now.
