Hi,

i recommend pnp. Integration in Nagios is very simple and you get the graphs
immediately. Nevertheless you can design the look of the graphs individually
with the template mechanism.

Same here - recommend pnp for the reasons stated above.

I haven't used nagiosgraph so I cannot talk to how it works, but PNP
is also very flexible with how you integrate it and can be made to
scale very nicely :); the developers are also open to user patches.

I like to think I'm relatively competent with Nagios, but I fought with
nagiosgraph for a while before I ran out of patience and gave up.
Unfortunately it's been several months since I did this, so I can't
remember why I hated it so much. It didn't help that there are multiple
packages out there named 'nagiosgraph'. pnp4nagios, otoh, installed
quickly, easily, and just works.

I'm disappointed that Nagios doesn't have a graphing engine built in.
It's silly to go to the trouble of setting up checks to build datapoints
(e.g. ping RTT, memory, disk space) and then throw away data that could
have great historic value. Of course, this is a whole 'nother can of
worms and gets into the "it's only build for one thing" argument.


Met vriendelijke groet/kind regards,
bryan

Answering to myself:

pnp4nagios is better than nagiosgraph (sorry me nagiosgraph's
developers). I recommend anyone to use pnp4nagios.
