RRD Tool integration

[Carroll, Jim P [Contractor]]

I can't speak about RRDTool directly, but at some point I plan to take a
crack at leveraging cacti (or another RRDTool-based solution).  I'll share
my solution once I've been there, done that.

Off the cuff, I speculate that I'll be running the NRPE plugins from cacti.
The only disadvantage I can see here is that each plugin worth tracking
metrics will be run once from Nagios, once from cacti.  Less than optimal,
but I don't know the internals of Nagios well enough to approach this
otherwise.

If someone better versed on the Nagios internals (nagios.cmd, perhaps?)
would care to make helpful suggestions when I cross that bridge, ping me now
(off-list) just to say, "Hey, let me know when you're ready to give this a
go; I should be able to spare a few cycles here and there."

As usual, once I've cracked this nut, I'll share with the list.
