Subject: RE: AW: [nv-l] Availability reporting from NetView

As you're looking for possible answers/products, did you know there is an
MRTG/RRDTool to NetView integration package called OverTime from NETic?
Point and shoot from the NetView gui, can use templates to define
collections, then snmpCollect does the collections and the data is graphed
with RRDTool.
