Ben England reports that it is downright silly that when we create a new chart which has metrics being sourced from multiple hosts, the default plot legends do not reflect the hosts. Thus, if the same metric is plotted from different hosts, the UI (by default) does not allow the user to distinguish them. Of course one can use explicit plot Labels, but we should behave more sensibly by default too. So, once this situation crops up (multi-host charts), the default plot label needs to include hostname in addition to metric and instance names.
commit a683a1b8fe2b45ea0faf94c9e4d664dc1e5306eb Author: Nathan Scott <nathans> Date: Wed Mar 5 10:41:33 2014 +1100 Remove pmchart one-metric-multiple-hosts legend ambiguity This change tackles the visual ambiguity that exists when a chart is created (or edited) such that the same metric from multple hosts is used. A number of difficulties arose in attempting to retrofit the prepend-hostname-to-legend-labels policy (potentially having to undo later on when editing occurs too) after a subsequent plot is observed to introduce the ambiguity. So, in the end went with the far simpler solution of always using shortname -prefixed label for plots (all this is only when no explicit plot labels are specified, of course). Resolves Red Hat bugzilla #1069960.
