Description Nathan Scott 2014-02-26 01:03:42 UTC
pmchart usability expert Ben England reports:
> - "Preserve hostname in view" field is not checked in "Save View..." dialog
> box even if multiple hosts' metrics are in the view, thus guaranteeing that
> the view will not work when it is read in.
> workaround: check the box, many users may not realize at first that this is
> necessary
> suggested solution: if the view contains multiple hosts' metrics, force the
> config file to contain the hostname for each plot, since this was obviously
> the user's intent.

We should Make It So, this would clearly be much better behaviour in this case.

    Default to dynamic hostname views only for single host charts
    
    If we have multiple hosts in a single chart, a better default
    (for just that case) is to save the hostnames explicitly.
    
    Resolves Red Hat bugzilla #1069964.
