Bug Description

On 3 machines that were recently rebooted telegraf didn't start back up. On investigation I simply needed to run 'systemctl start telegraf' and 'systemctl enable telegraf' to prepare for next reboot.

This was an older version of the charm installed at the end of September 2016, I have not yet tested with a newer charm.

I recently deployed a new environment with telegraf, and can confirm this behaviour. The telegraf package deploys in a disabled state, and the charm does nothing to fix this.

@timkuhlman, should this bug really be filed against the prometheus charm?

@paulgear I don't think it belongs with Prometheus as that is the server side it is telegraf that has the actual problem.

Deployed cs:telegraf to a new xenial VM and confirmed it starts up correctly after a reboot: https://pastebin.canonical.com/199421/
