Implemented extensions

  1. Design: Capabilities (In 1.4.0)
  2. Scalability: Multiple graphs from one plugin (In 1.4.0)
  3. Scalability: Let multigraph plugins create graph hierarchies (In 1.4.0)

Proposed extensions

  1. Scalability: Dirty "fetch" output allows munin to skip "config" (in trunk now)
  2. Scalability: Spooling extension for better scaling
  3. Error handling: Log transfer extension to collect errors on the central node and present in web-browser
  4. Management: Use network discovery perl tools to help auto-generate a initial munin configuration (and update it as network devices are added) and set up SNMP probing of network devices, windows, ..., linux and the like
  5. Management: Let nodes notify a server of their existence
  6. Managability/plug-and-play: install-autoconfig - plugins that can say how they want to be configured.

Scraped extensions

  1. Light perl plugins
  2. Scalability: RRD update spooling to make rrd updating and graphing scale better. RRD file updating is not our primary problem.
