Does anyone know how to get the info (and graphs hopefully) on CPU

ideas?
How about enabling the vmstat module in the LARRD client ? That gives
you cpu utilization split into system-time, user-time and idle-time as
percentages. Just tell them that the green part is unused, and the
red/yellow parts are when it is busy.

We use the bb-sar extension from www.deadcat.net on many of our hosts.
I haven't tried to get it working with Hobbit yet, but it does CPU
utilization in percentages.
