Auto-rename RRD files
I think it would be useful to have a feature in Cacti for when you change a device name, the .rrd files will automatically be renamed too. Say for instance you change a server or switch name, the .rrd file would be renamed too instead of keeping the old name.
Me-too on this.
Especially useful, since the "Description" field is used to determine the filenames of the graphs, and a user may have used "My server on the third floor by the printer" as their device Description.
Alternately, and probably a better idea, would be to not use the Description field for file names -- use an abstract ID of some sort... like the device ID or something.

Maybe this could help you because you will only have to change the description of your device.
