Hi. To centralize the graphing you can use SNMP to get the CPU usage in the servers from one machine, using net-snmp package with snmpd on the servers. Like, the management machine is the central, with net-snmp (snmp-walk, snmp-get) and the the servers (monitored stations) wil run snmpd to answer the snmp-get and snmp-walk requests. This can be done through shell scripts, to collect data and store into local rrd files, for graphing later. (sample in http://silverwraith.com/papers/freebsd-snmp.php )
You got it? This is the good pratice, to use SNMP, but you can use some scripts to get cpu and memory usage local from the servers, and then export this data to remote rrd files (rrd files on the central management machine) via NFS, remote SSH calls, or something else, but this is very plataform dependant scripts and causes network overhead, not a good pratice.

We are currently using mrtg We have been trying to produce graphs for CPU and memory utilization for our unix servers. Can we get some sample scripts to do that. Our unix servers includes sun, HP-UX and linux and we want to install rrdtool on only one sun server and we want to produce graphs for other servers from there only. Any help would be highly appreciated.
