How about a plugin or feature of being able to make comments INLINE on the graphs, so events can be recorded? Would that be difficult to do?

A related thing that would be useful is some support for rrdtool VLINEs.

For example, drraw allows you to keep a log file of events, separate from the rrd itself, which are then marked on the chart to show reboots or other events.

I too would like to see some ability to make notes on graphs, or against various data source/hosts.

For a reference of how I envision something like this working, take a look at Google's finance page, and lookup any stock ID.

For reference:
Code:
http://finance.google.com/finance?client=ob&q=GOOG


If you look at the default chart, it shows various letters referencing events listed off to the right.

If there were a note taking system that could assign a date/time as well as a way to link a single note to various hosts or data sources, I think that would be helpful.

Taking the thought a step further, could you have an interface that showed various 'notes' (regardless of host), allow you to click the reference and it display the various host graphs that might be associated with said event.

Would be an interesting way to see the system results of named events.

Just my 2 cents.

Hi all

Anyone have idea to implement this function in cacti? That is sufficiently useful for great corporations that they use cacti.
