OK I have verified the behaviour...
(this assumes Default templates ONLY)

Create a copy of the default 'Device' template (collects sysuptime only).

Bind this template to a Device (preferably one that supports snmp!)

Edit the template to collect an 'interface table' OID - lets say InOctets for interface index 1 so add a data source of
 1.3.6.1.2.1.2.2.1.10.1
and a corresponding data point with default values

(NOTE Index number on the end!)

Save the changes & push them out...

The data will NOT be collected (no RRD file created under the Devicename directory)

after a few collection cycles of nothing happening go into the ethernetcsmacd template and change the status of the InOctets data source to DISABLED, save & push the changes out.

The 'device' level data source will be collected on the next polling cycle...

This is happening because the ifInOctets is already being collected by another template (ethernetCsmacd). Go to the device's OS tab and click on any of the interfaces to see the graphs. The SNMP collection daemon (zenperfsnmp) won't collect the same OID on the save device twice.
