I am trying to use {HOSTNAME}:ifDescr1 [for example] in a graph name in a template to give it a more descriptive title to the graph than if01, however the variable is not expanded to the value of ifDescr1 [Dialer0, for example]. To be honest I don't even know if {HOSTNAME}:ifDescr1 is a valid variable or not.
The alternative would be to manually rename each instantiation of the graph, however that is not feasible with anything other than a trivial number of devices/ports.
Is there systematic way of getting the value of ifDescrn onto the title of the corresponding graph? Suggestions involving bash scripts invoked from cron, copying values from one part of the database to another will be met with the contempt they deserve
