Graphite server configuration
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The definition of a server is:

graphite: your-id
server your-server
port your-port
path your-path

where your-port defaults to *2003*
and your-path defaults to *proxmox*

Here is an example configuration for influxdb (on your influxdb server):
----
[[udp]]
enabled = true
bind-address = "0.0.0.0:8089"
database = "proxmox"
batch-size = 1000
batch-timeout = "1s"
----
With this configuration, your server listens on all IP addresses on
port 8089, and writes the data in the *proxmox* database
