[rrd-users] Re: Remote question

[Fitzgerald, David]

Paul:  Are those numbers that you want obtainable via SNMP?  If so, you
could install rrdtool on some other machine, along with some snmpget
utilities, and a web server of course, and poll the machine remotely via
SNMP.

Depending upon your shop, the "coefficient of hassle" might be very low
or very high.  Security tends to raise the value of this variable.

Otherwise, you would install the whole shooting match on the server
you're trying to monitor.  Typically, this affects the machine, so
depending upon what you are attempting to monitor (and how often), you
might alter the load you are attempting to measure.
