One cacti to control many RRAs run at different intervals

Post by bragiba »

I would like to see cacti setup such that you can define which RRAs you are running and at what intervals. For example you might want to monitor something every 5 minutes, other things every 20 minutes and something else every hour.

I would like to be able to create RRAs for all of these (I can do that today) and then run the RRAs at intervals I specify (cannot do that today).

This would eliminate you creating a crontab entry and cacti would need a timing function to see when it should run.

Interface suggestion
In the menu Current Round Robin Archives add a pull down where you can specify for the RRA you are creating at what interval it should be run.
You should have one pulldown for:
minute (0-59),
hour (0-23),
day of the month (1-31),
month of the year (1-12),
day of the week (0-6 with 0=Sunday).

just like crontab :D

Would be way COOL
