+=head2 Plugin C<openldap>
+
+To use the C<openldap> plugin you first need to configure the I<OpenLDAP>
+server correctly. The backend database C<monitor> needs to be loaded and
+working. See slapd-monitor(5) for the details.
+
+The configuration of the C<openldap> plugin consists of one or more B<Instance>
+blocks. Each block requires one string argument as the instance name. For
+example:
+
+ <Plugin "openldap">
+ <Instance "foo">
+ URL "ldap://localhost/"
+ </Instance>
+ <Instance "bar">
+ URL "ldaps://localhost/"
+ </Instance>
+ </Plugin>
+
+The instance name will be used as the I<plugin instance>. To emulate the old
+(versionE<nbsp>4) behavior, you can use an empty string (""). In order for the
+plugin to work correctly, each instance name must be unique. This is not
+enforced by the plugin and it is your responsibility to ensure it is.
+
+The following options are accepted within each B<Instance> block:
+
+=over 4
+
+=item B<URL> I<ldap://host/binddn>
+
+Sets the URL to use to connect to the I<OpenLDAP> server. This option is
+I<mandatory>.
+
+=item B<StartTLS> B<true|false>
+
+Defines whether TLS must be used when connecting to the I<OpenLDAP> server.
+Disabled by default.
+
+=item B<VerifyHost> B<true|false>
+
+Enables or disables peer host name verification. If enabled, the plugin checks
+if the C<Common Name> or a C<Subject Alternate Name> field of the SSL
+certificate matches the host name provided by the B<URL> option. If this
+identity check fails, the connection is aborted. Enabled by default.
+
+=item B<CACert> I<File>
+
+File that holds one or more SSL certificates. If you want to use TLS/SSL you
+may possibly need this option. What CA certificates are checked by default
+depends on the distribution you use and can be changed with the usual ldap
+client configuration mechanisms. See ldap.conf(5) for the details.
+
+=item B<Timeout> I<Seconds>
+
+Sets the timeout value for ldap operations. Defaults to B<-1> which results in
+an infinite timeout.
+
+=item B<Version> I<Version>
+
+An integer which sets the LDAP protocol version number to use when connecting
+to the I<OpenLDAP> server. Defaults to B<3> for using I<LDAPv3>.

=item B<AlwaysAppendDS> B<false>|B<true>
+If set to B<true>, append the name of the I<Data Source> (DS) to the "metric"
+identifier. If set to B<false> (the default), this is only done when there is
+more than one DS.

+
+=head2 Plugin C<write_tsdb>
+
+The C<write_tsdb> plugin writes data to I<OpenTSDB>, a scalable open-source
+time series database. The plugin connects to a I<TSD>, a masterless, no shared
+state daemon that ingests metrics and stores them in HBase. The plugin uses
+I<TCP> over the "line based" protocol with a default port 4242. The data will
+be sent in blocks of at most 1428 bytes to minimize the number of network
+packets.
+
+Synopsis:
+
+ <Plugin write_tsdb>
+ <Node "example">
+ Host "tsd-1.my.domain"
+ Port "4242"
+ HostTags "status=production"
+ </Node>
+ </Plugin>
+
+The configuration consists of one or more E<lt>B<Node>E<nbsp>I<Name>E<gt>
+blocks. Inside the B<Node> blocks, the following options are recognized:
+
+=over 4
+
+=item B<Host> I<Address>
+
+Hostname or address to connect to. Defaults to C<localhost>.
+
+=item B<Port> I<Service>
+
+Service name or port number to connect to. Defaults to C<4242>.
+
+
+=item B<HostTags> I<String>
+
+When set, I<HostTags> is added to the end of the metric. It is intended to be
+used for name=value pairs that the TSD will tag the metric with. Dots and
+whitespace are I<not> escaped in this string.
+
+=item B<StoreRates> B<false>|B<true>
+
+If set to B<true>, convert counter values to rates. If set to B<false>
+(the default) counter values are stored as is, as an increasing
+integer number.
+
+=item B<AlwaysAppendDS> B<false>|B<true>
+
If set the B<true>, append the name of the I<Data Source> (DS) to the "metric"
identifier. If set to B<false> (the default), this is only done when there is
more than one DS.
If set to B<true>, attach state to events based on thresholds defined
in the B<Threshold> plugin. Defaults to B<false>.
+=item B<EventServicePrefix> I<String>
+
+Add the given string as a prefix to the event service name.
+If B<EventServicePrefix> not set or set to an empty string (""),
+no prefix will be used.
