Description
Hello
We have a current influxdb 1.8 and we are trying to insert additional tags per the requirement from management. Is there a way to easily add new tags to the already existing influxdb? Can you provide some sql / script / tool with examples which can do this?
For example for a diskio measurement
The current stat looks like this:
diskio,env=test,host=testhost,tag=diskio
We need it to look like this for each measurement:
diskio,az=us-east-1a,env=test,host=testhost,region=us-east-1,tag=diskio,type=newdeploy
Thanks,
Ketan

Research direction
The issue names no repository files, tests, or entry points. Start with the InfluxDB 1.8 behavior for the existing diskio measurement and determine whether the requested tags can be added to existing data; done would require a confirmed method or an explicit limitation with a suitable example.
