Note that you don't have to specify any of the parameters other than the metrics to display themselves - the existing defaults (which seemed to me reasonable, but others may have better ideas) are good enough to render graphs as is. Still, if you have ideas on how to make the interface better (simpler?), I'd be happy to get an interface design and modify the existing interface accordingly. > In addition, as a system administrator, I would like to be able to get > a overview of these custom graphs for all nodes.

The current graphs displayed in the cluster overview are hardcoded into the web frontend, so I'm not sure how we could integrate the two interfaces. Insights on this are most welcome. > Is it possible/difficult to alter your code with the following?: > - custom graphs/reports configurable in Ganglia's conf.php > - these configured custom graphs available in the cluster overview > I'm looking into the possibility of saving/loading graph templates, as I've received a few requests for this and it doesn't seem complicated to do anyway. While this won't provide with better integration into the current graph system, it does provide with a "configure once, use many" functionality. Thank you for your comments - hopefully with some work we could make this even more useful for a broader crowd.
