Description
Let's consider for example the following graph templates:
report.ruckus.ap.stations.name=Ruckus AP Stations report.ruckus.ap.stations.columns=rzdAPNumSta report.ruckus.ap.stations.type=ruckusZDWLANAPEntry report.ruckus.ap.stations.propertiesValues=rzdAPIPAddress,rzdAPDescripion report.ruckus.ap.stations.command=--title="Ruckus AP Stations - {rzdAPIPAddress} {rzdAPDescripion}" \ --vertical-label="Number of Stations" \ DEF:var={rrd1}:rzdAPNumSta:AVERAGE \ AREA:var#73d216 \ LINE1:var#4e9a06:"Stations " \ GPRINT:var:AVERAGE:"Avg \\: %8.2lf %s" \ GPRINT:var:MIN:"Min \\: %8.2lf %s" \ GPRINT:var:MAX:"Max \\: %8.2lf %s\\n"
The template is referencing two string properties. When using RRDtool, the title is rendered properly. I mean, if the value of the variable is null (or the variable doesn't exist on the resource), it is rendered as a empty string (as expected).
When using Backshift, instead of an empty string, you'll see the name of the string property, which can confuse users (see backshift-issue-with-string-properties.png, the resource doesn't have a value for rzdAPDescripion).
