[K12OSN] one year performance graphs and statistics for two server setups we use

[Nadav Kavalerchik]

wow :-) that helped me allot, thanks !
i will look into it and see if i can add these probes to Cacti, if not... i
will checkout opennms. (it looks very professional from the looks of it in

super thanks,
nadav :-)
