Hi,
Does anyone know some plugin for Capacity Management ???
(Don wanna RE-INVENT the Wheel)

I'm currently working on Capacity Management Plugin for Cacti.

The code is in early stages but it will be complete, possibly within 2-3 months. Some testing were done successfully. Some part of algorithm is also completed but not fully functional. Need lots of bug testing before any initial release.

If anyone is interested, PLEASE DO LET ME KNOW. You help is really crucial for me.

YEP.u r almost close.

Its like prediction or planning of IT assets, based on current resources & its utilization. Analysis of the stored data & based on that analysis, predicting the ups & downs. PLANNING & PREDICTION.


I hope it was simple to understand.

I'm a certified Ca Spectrum & Ca eHealth specialist (developer) and trying to port some of the Performance Management functionality to CACTI in a legal way. No code sharing or violating the OEM code. Just my ideas & converting them.

You should modify your poll. I would like to have something like, "We don't need capacity planning. We would first need planning...".

There, I did it. I paraphrased a little though.
