MRTG Import Script

[NxTek]

Any type of import script for people who are switching from MRTG -- Many of us have upwards of dozens/hundreds of existing targets.

mrtg# grep Target *.cfg | wc -l

Yes, being able to import the data from a mrtg rrd file to these ones would be good. tho it may not be a cacti problem, the answer may lies in the rrdtool suite, assuming i can convert from the old log files !!!!

MRTG will convert the old logfiles itself. Update to a recent (last 4 years I think) MRTG, then check in the manual about rrdtool integration. MRTG will convert your logs into rrd files by itself when you add the two lines needed to the top of the config file.

Then you can look at lvm's guide for using foreign RRD files in cacti...
