Hi, is it possible to include into one of the next versions the zpool_influxdb command?
https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/tree/master/cmd/zpool_influxdb
https://openzfs.github.io/openzfs-docs/man/8/zpool_influxdb.8.html

It's somehow officially included and then not included, i don't really get it.
We are already almost on the master branch (2.0.3), maybe with 2.0.4 if it's possible it would be great to have this.

The reason is simply, that im building an Grafana dashboard, something really simple:

And this Pie chart has at the moment only "Free" & "Used" Memory space... But i want to put "Arc" there too, to make it a bit more detaily...
Or probably a pie chart that is more exact, like Hostusage+Arc+Free+VM1+VM2+VM3 etc... but this will probably get too overfilled and multiple pie charts or graphs is not the way to go either, since it should be as slim as possible in the end.
However, thats my problem, i will release the dashboard later and make an thread whats needed etc...

But first i need the "zpool_influxdb" command commonly available :)

Thank you!

AFAICT the zpool influxdb command got merged into ZFS master - and is not incldued in the zfs 2.0.X branch.
Being a new feature it is unlikely to get backported (and we try to match upstream rather close)

So it will most likely arrive in PVE with ZFS 2.1

I hope this helps!

Not seeing this with ZFS 2.1. Any idea why that might be?
