We have test points measurements in our metrics.  We would like to not include 
these in our queries.  Adding the test point ids in the where clause will not 
scale.  I read that the way to do something like this is to insert again on the 
same timestamp and setting a field.   Is this still the preferred way to 
exclude data?

Say i have this value
task,id=1,status=done,field2=2 value=1234,value2=2 1434055562000000000

and i want to  exclude it from my queries , so i would insert it again

task,id=1,status=xxx,field2=2 value=1234,value2=2 1434055562000000000

now in my queries i can do

select tasks where status !=xxx

Can I setup a  kapacitor stream to overwrite the field or will that cause 
problems?

Can I overwrite the value like this?  

tasks, status=xxx 1434055562000000000

Or do I have to have a value for every field?

Thanks
