Hi Alceu, I have collectd-carbon-graphite-grafana running for years, with some minor tweaks it's absolutely possible. I prefer to use OpenBSD ports system, so I have it in $PORTSDIR/mystuff. If you know how to build from ports, I can share, please let me know off-the-list. -- With best regards, Pavel Korovin
