-----------
*collectd::unixsock* is a backend module which queries the system statistics
collection daemon *collectd* using its *unixsock* interface. It connects to
-the daemon and periodically queries all hosts and metric names. The latter are
-then stored as services of the respective host.

The path name of the UNIX domain socket provided by collectd's
*unixsock* plugin.
+ *TimeseriesBackend* '<type>';;
+ The data-store type to be used to query time-series information of a
+ metric. This setting relates to a collectd writer plugin. The
+ data-store needs to be accessible from SysDB and the type needs to be
+ supported by SysDB (through an appropriate time-series fetcher
+ plugin).
+
+ *TimeseriesBaseURL* '<url>';;
+ The base URL for time-series data. This may be a path-name or a
+ network address depending on the time-series backend type.
