Re: Cacti script_server index invocation

This depends on the "re-index setting".
"Uptime goes backwards" == Cacti tracks system uptime. If current value is lower
than resent value (remembered by Cacti), Cacti will assume a rebbot and perform
a reindex operation.
"Index Count Changed" == Cacti _always_ gets the number of indexes present (this
is _not_ a full reindex operation). If previous count <> current count, a full
reindex is done

Counting the index is done the following way:
- in case there is an OID that represents the index count, this single OID is
fetched
- in case of a (server) script query, the script is called with the "index"
operator. Depending on the script, the related action is performed
