Simple question - location of the performance data?

[codek]

Hi,

I wish to use another tool to report on the performance data, where can i find it? I dont seem to have the data loaded in the mysql database, is it stored as raw files somewhere? Is there any way of configuring the system to load the data into the mysql database?

Many thanks!
Dan

That was already asked lots of time. But cacti is an rrdtool frontend, so it uses rrd files for storing data. Have a read at the second to last link of my signature to learn some basic principles.
