When creating a Cacti data source, you can specify "no collection method" (or something like that) and it will then not try and collect the data itself. Then you can do your own thing with an external script. I assume you can also write your own script for Cacti to use, but I haven't looked into that. _______________________________________________ rrd-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.oetiker.ch/cgi-bin/listinfo/rrd-users
