Neither of these tools are a realistic replacement for Cacti or Cricket. There are a number of reasons why, including the one you mention above; you have to create a nagios check for the data point you want to graph. There may be 50 things about a host I want to trend, but only a few I care to alert on. We currently have 4776 devices in Cricket that result in 68,744 graphs being (easily) created. Let's see that done with PNP/NagiosGrapher. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Nagios-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null
