Dave, For example:
I have new motherboard, with lot of sensors, but some of them (assume that all of em are related to the VOLTAGE_DC type) are not working because there is no appropriate kernel module. I moved to the new kernel and now all sensors are managed by kernel, so fan and temperature sensors's indexes been changed and i have to change configuration of the monitoring tools to handle these changes. Also for example I know that all my devices have 6 fans and 5 temperature and 15 power sensors at max. If I am using current code I have to configure all my devices separately to monitor em. But with separate indexes i can create one single template which contains maximum number of all sensors and use it for all devices. If you want me to change my code, just say how exactly it should looks like to avoid misunderstanding. I can add one more single table with any sensors available in the system, should I ?.
