Hi fmangeant,

First, thank you for your help. I already applied ReportIt plugin in my Cacti, but i want to make report based on each server.
So, i want report for cpu, memory, disk for each report (hourly, daily, weekly, monthly). I ever saw some application that can generate report like that, in cpu tab i can choose start and end date then click generate and then i can save it on pdf. In pdf file, it shows graph and all of value between start and end date (hourly).
For now, in my reportit is show total all of host in 1 graph.

I hope you can help me.. this report case is very confusing for me.
a lot of thanks for your help. Or anybody can help me too..
Thank you

Sounds to me, that you wish for a kind of "report host template",
which combines several of your report templates like "CPU Utilization", "Interface Traffic", "Disk Utilization" and so on to one host template.(?)

Best regards

Thank you Andreas,
yes, I want to report like this:
Host A: you can click CPU report, Memory report, or Disk report, also frequency (hourly, daily, weekly, monthly) and start date, end date that will be queried. Each report will shows value in pdf or xls. It's better if it can shows graphical also.
So, each host has report based on CPU, Memory, Disk, and so on.
Are you have report's plugin like that? or anybody have?
Thank you very much..

Regards,

I thought I saw some work being done on this somewhere, but I can't find it.

The Reportit plugin is fine for scheduled reports, although I'd like to be able to both export to CSV and PDF, and for more than just the current report.

What Is needed is an adhoc report tool, so that you can select what graphs you wish to put into a PDF for a particular device.

A lot of commercial tools have similar functionality.

I hacked in a temporary PDF generation so that I can at least generate PDFs of individual graphs, but, ti would be nicer to be able to select what graphs you want added to a PDF and then generate it.

Maybe someday I'll get time...... not holding my breath!

Yes, I looked at it, but what I have already done myself is much cleaner at this time, although I think the nmid version could be very useful, if some of the requirements are changed (such as requirring the guest user be enabled, requiring curl, etc, etc). I may just clean up my hack a bit so I can select the graphs I want.

Thanks

I changed the architecture so the requirements are much less now:

No guest user required
No CURL required
Boost support
nmidSmokeping Support
Support for multiple graphs/columns per page
Support for different page sizes

and much much more to come ...
