All Great ideas and I would be, but the question remains, "How do I put them in 
the data point configuration in Zenoss?"

Do I have to write a custom collector plugin for getting the data, or is there 
a place in the template screens that I'm missing for "Transforming" what is 
returned by the snmpget and stored in the rrd file. (IE run this command on the 
snmp data returned.)   I would even be happy with a field that is run this 
command to get the data.  (I could put in an "snmpget -v1 -c $community $device 
$oid | cut -c9-"

I'm fairly new to zenoss and things are starting to make sense.  However I have 
yet to write a collector plugin, and am not exactly clear on how to do it.  
I've been reviewing the plugins in the collector plugins folder and looking at 
the dev manual, but for some reason the light bulb dangling above my head just 
won't light.  I'm still waiting on that Ah Ha moment when the epiphany hits, 
and it all clicks.
