I've been playing about with MRTG today, and found out that adding MRTG graphs to the Hobbit set of graphs was a very simple task. Since this is probably something that others can use, I've written up a short description of how to do it: http://www.hswn.dk/hobbit/help/hobbit-mrtg.html
The short story is that you can configure MRTG so that it stores its datafiles in RRDtool format directly into the directory where Hobbit looks for all of the other RRD files for a host.
That's ok for a few, but it won't scale terribly well. I have over 5000 points that I am currently monitoring with mrtg. I have that broken down into a three tier directory structure (region - site - device), with all of the thresholds and alerting from bbmrtg.pl.
Is there a way I can point to my existing rrd directory structure for the graphing bit - which bbmrtg.pl doesn't do terribly well - but still keep my stuff in its nice hierarchy?
