RRDtool looks nicer...

-

OpenBSD Amsterdam was in search of a lightweight toolset to keep track of resource usage, at a minimum the CPU load generated by the vmm(4)/vmd(8) hosts and the traffic from and to the hosts. A couple of weeks ago we ended up with a workable [MRTG setup]. While it worked, it didn't look very pretty.

OpenBSD Amsterdam was in search of a lightweight toolset to keep track of resource usage, at a minimum the CPU load generated by the vmm(4)/vmd(8) hosts and the traffic from and to the hosts. A couple of weeks ago we ended up with a workable MRTG Setup. While it worked, it didn't look very pretty.

In a moment of clarity, we thought about using RRDtool. Heck, why shouldn't we give it a try? From the previous tooling, we already had some required building blocks in place to make MRTG understand the CPU Cores and uptime from OpenBSD.

Before we start:

+# pkg_add rrdtool

We decided to split the collection of the different OIDs (SNMP Object Identifiers) into three different scripts, which cron(1) calls, from a wrapper script.
