I agree.
Some kind of MRTG/RDD averaged roll up of long term Intermapper chart
data is a feature I have been requesting for years. It is #1 on my
wish list.
Many of our existing charts aren't useful when you look at them over
long time scales (eg, Yearly) because there is no averaging of long
term data. Not to mention the disk space that is consumed. Thus we
have no choice except to maintain parallel charting systems.
#2 on my wish list and another feature I have been requesting for
years, is to be able to turn off automatic discovery so that the
maps in our Network Operations Center don't get messed up every time
someone adds a new I/O module or a new VLAN. For production maps I
would like discovery to happen when I ask it to happen.

The MRTG/RRD approach would even work for me.. where after a few
weeks or so of data, it gets averaged over time. Since I don't like
Intermapper's charts anyway, I wrote another system to graph
traffic/cpu/etc to be able to compare them with any other
variable... after a week, the data is just not as precise, and it is
averaged over 30 minutes. then after a month, its averaged over 1
or 2 hours.. Doing it this way, with 514 switches, all the data
only takes up 2 gigs of space. (mostly 24 ports per switch, looking
at 8 variables per port, so somehow I'm ending up with 6013 data
files). Updating all these files beats on the CPU/HDs quite nicely.
But this ability is something I've asked for in IM a few times, then
I just gave up trying to request features.

Is it possible to archive chart data automatically? So that for example, a
chart shows only the past 3 months to date yet the older data would be
stored in an archive directory for later viewing.
If that is not possible, how about only saving x days/months of data in a
particular chart?
