Package: cacti (0.8.7g-1+squeeze1)

[ Source: cacti  ]

Frontend to rrdtool for monitoring systems and services

Cacti is a complete frontend to rrdtool, it stores all of the necessary information to create graphs and populates them with data in a MySQL database. The frontend is completely PHP driven. Along with being able to maintain Graphs, Data Sources, and Round Robin Archives in a database, cacti handles the data gathering also. There is also SNMP support for those used to creating traffic graphs with MRTG.

This package requires a functional MySQL database server on either the installation host or remotely accessible system. If you do not already have a database server available, you should also install mysql-server.
