Nagios Reporting ang Graphs


Hi All,
I have installed Latest Nagios 3.2.1 on centos5.5 box and monitoring above 50 devices (switches, routers, Linux/Unix boxes, Win2k3 and more).

I am generating static Bandwidth graph reports through MRTG, Its working fine, But is there any more way to generate dynamic grapgs for Bandwidth, CPU, Memory performance?

Most important thing i want to export Nagios Reports in any format like .csv, Excel, Pdf. So is there any way to export nagios reports in any format! Please suggest.

Thanks
Yash

Other than availablity reports, Nagios isn't the right tool to generate
graphs. Munin is a good tool to use in conjunction with Nagios to get
performance graphs.

You might also want to look at GWOS or Zenoss which includes the functionality
of both Nagios and Munin in a single package.

Hi.

You can use PNP4Nagios 0.6, it works fine. It can export graphs in any format like pdf, csv... It's possible to integrate with Nagios's interface; it's very cool.

Bye.

Hi Neo,

PNP4Nagios works only on RRDtool, and i am new to rrdtool, as i have installed mrtg so is there any way to export graphs from mrtg logfiles.

rrdtool is pretty cool but be aware - it does NOT report accurate data! It 'normalizes' it. So for example if you had a file with 1000 data point in it and all were 10 and one was 1000, you might see a little blip where the big number is, but nothing close to 1000. Then again if you happen to zoom in on that area of the data you might see a larger blip - totally non-deterministic, and when I'm looking for accuracy I need accurate data. Personally I use gnuplot! Harder to use, but it truthfully plots everything. Just my opinion...
