>Hi,
>I have enabled performance data in Nagios, and it is saved to 
?host-perfdata.out? and ?service-perfdata.out?. I want to show this in 
some nice graphs. After some research I found Nagiosgrapher could be the

SNMP. In order to install NagiosGrapher I need to install RRD tools, and 
someone told me that RRD only uses SNMP.

Yes you can - the performance data is gathered by the plugins, Nagiosgraph 
translates this into RRD format, and allows you to draw graphs from the 
RRDs - keeps lots of historical data in a small db.

Worth checking out Cacti too, I use this to draw prettier graphs from the 
RRDs Nagiosgraph creates, that I can link out to separately - I think to 
link to the Nagiosgraph 'standard' graphs you have to give some access to 
the Nagios web interface, but this may very well just be down to how I set 
it up.
