I agree as well... We maintain an MRTG server to do long term trending because of this limitation. Our task of moving graph data is no easier in MRTG but we are used to it.

It's a big limitation in IM that makes it unsuitable for keeping long term trend data. There should ideally be a GUI way to move chart data. In addition to the example below, we often see configuration changes move the the logical source of the data around, for example: -A primary switch uplink moves from one interface to another. -An index changes in the HR mib due to a device addition removal, or net-snmp upgrade. I think some solution to this would be incredibly useful. -David --On Friday, January 8, 2010 3:01 PM +0530 Manickaraja Arumugam <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Bill, > > I have a requirement may be every InterMapper customer will agree on this > point. > > In any organization the network enhancement or upgradation is common now > days. > > We had a WAN circuit for past 4 years and the 10+ devices are maintained > by the service provider.
