All of the other stats do save to csv (cpu, memory etc from the localhost).
I was sending the data originally to graphite however to troubleshoot this
issue i figured it might be better to csv right now. I've tried this with
other snmp data and none of it seems to ever write. I've got got a bunch of
logs colelcted but I don't see anything that looks like an error, I see the
plugin collect all the live data but i never see write activity in the logs
for snmp. As soon as i turn on any other plugin, i'll get write lines in
the logs for that data.

Regards,

Ryan
