Collectd and openvpn stats

[fabio]

Hi
I would like to collect openvpn stats via collectd so I've manually added:

Code Select Expand

LoadPlugin openvpn
<Plugin openvpn>
StatusFile "/var/run/openvpn-status.log"
CollectIndividualUsers true
CollectUserCount true
CollectCompression true
ImprovedNamingSchema false
</Plugin>
to my /usr/local/etc/collectd.conf

and

Code Select Expand

status /var/run/openvpn-status.log


in the Advanced field of "VPN: OpenVPN: Servers"

This seems works fine so I'm asking you, if it's possibile, to add an "Advanced" field also in collectd
field simply appended to /usr/local/etc/collectd.conf


Thank you for all your great work and sorry if I've only requests and not code

if this gets added to the core package with an automatically generated name, extending the plugin would be simple. You may want to add a feature request on the plugins and the core package on GitHub

[fabio]

perfect I'll add this request on GitHub

Thansk again
