Its not HTML skill required, but rather C, as it would require changes to Hobbit. The Metrics Report can only graph things which are defined as "multi-host" graphs in hobbit-graphs.cfg. And you cant just make anything a multi-host graph, because they have to be the same type of graph (cant graph something like disk space and cpu load on a single graph).
Using some basic HTML, you could still make your own page that shows the graphs you want. Just right-click a graph in the trends page, and "copy image location". You will get a long URL which is a call to hobbitgraph with lots of parameters. If you use this URL with an HTML IMG tag, you can then insert that graph and others on a page. You could then put a link to that page in the Hobbit menu.

But the Metrics report is limited in choosing the metrics you want to be displayed.
I would also like to have a "full featured" metrics report where you can select any host and any metric which is available in the system.
But unfortunately I'm not a very skilled HTML coder :(

I know this isn't exactly what you asked for, but I just wanted to
make
sure you were aware that there is an existing mechanism for getting multi-host graphs. In your Hobbit menu, go to Reports, Metrics
Report.
Choose the time frame you wish, the hosts you want to graph, and on
the
right side select CPU utilization. You will then get a single graph that has all the hosts on it. If you then save the URL you can then insert that graph into an HTML page if you wish, and it will be
dynamic.

Hello,
I was wondering if that would be possible using Hobbit, to generate
a
page with only one particular graph (for example CPU) across all servers available on the particular page. It would look like
"trends"
but not for particular server with different types of graphs but one particular type of graphs across many servers available on a particular sub page.
Do I need prepare my own sort of page/template or it is somehow possible to define through bb-hosts file (can`t find it in documentation).
