"Adding new Datapoint/OID to monitoring template, variables in custom graphs"

I may be approaching this all wrong, but this is what I'm trying right now.
I need to do some new multigraphs for various memory usages. I want to have my graph for each machine show the usages as area graphs with the total memory of the machine (ie, free for instance). I don't see anyway to access hrMemorySize (which Zenoss appears to be using in the overview) inside a custom graph definition. I've tried adding hrMemorySize to the /Server/Linux monitoring template but it is still not being collected. I can access the value of hrMemorySize with snmpwalk/snmpget, so I know the target machine is exposing it. (HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrMemorySize.0 = INTEGER: 264125812 KBytes)
1) is there anyway to access the configuration variables such as hrMemorySize from inside a custom graph?
2) can I just add OID's/Datasources to the monitoring templates and have them pulled in to rrd data files?
3) Where do errors from the custom graph definitions go? I had to resort to running rrdtool on the command line to find my syntax errors.
