Description

This patch introduces a new way of processing StorageAnalyzer data, by processing
per-host instead of per-disk. I.e. if one disk on one host is down one time data is
collected, it will draw the average size reported down, and only for this disk. The
rest of the disks on the same host will show the "full" value. Originally  it was
reported per-disk. Later it was changed to average over the time interval, which
gave values that were not intuitive and too difficult to interpret.

IMPORTANT: Before reports are made, the old database has to be regenerated
with:

/opt/openit/bin/add --redo --datatype 24(29,40,59) --resolution <highest res>

The highest resolution refers to the interval at which the Storage data is collected. It can be
found by looking into the database at the data type directory. It is either day or week, whichever
is shortest. Day resolution will be written as "86400" on the command line, week as "604800".

This must be done after patch 823 is installed, so the new summasummarum is in
place. It can be done either before or after this patch, 824, is installed.
