RRD monitoring overview

RRD based performance monitoring is available for the following services. Not that not all services may be implemented on a given server. If not, the link below may lead nowhere, or the graphs may simply be empty.

Apache server performance no Apache servers can be configured to be monitored with RRD. If this is enabled, then these graphs show service times and number of requests.
