Question regarding Icinga2,Graphite, and Grafana

I've recently setup a new monitoring system for a mid-sized business. I've got Icinga2 running collection of data on about 50 windows servers, sending that information to graphite for storage, and then using Grafana to make a dashboard.

The problem I'm running in to is that Icinga2 collects memory and disk usage as the space that is free. But when visually looking at it on a dashboard you would want to see amount used/ total available. Otherwise it's pointless to even graph it out.

Any help here would be greatly appreciated.

Doesn´t Grafana have a "invert" filter/block? I recall running into this myself and finding that option somewhere.

that would be awesome if it did. It would save me so much energy. I'll look

I tried looking myself but It didn't look like it was possible, maybe a few lines of powershell as a replacement would be easier and let you customize output and performance data? The perfdata is just a pipe sign followed by perfdata in the output.
