I have a MySQL database table that effectively holds key-value pairs
which link each node to its parent (ESXi hypervisor). I want to use this
information to set the Nagios parent, which is easy to do, client-side.
I'm not sure what the best approach is. I considered writing a custom
fact that does a brief MySQL query to discover that node's parent. I
wasn't able to find any code I was prepared to run in production - is
there a neater way of using a ruby module to query MySQL? The example on
this page is dirty.

Alternatively, is there any way to access this data server-side that can
be accessed on a per-node basis?
Cheers,
Jonathan
