Objet : [hobbit] Newbie - Source data?


All,
Hi, Hobbit has some report tools included.
But I can't blame someone who wishes to play with excel, christmas is coming and its a good toy :) :) 
I installed Hobbit a few weeks ago and it running fine. Someone in upper management happened to see Hobbit in action and now wants more. He uses nothing but Excel and therefore wants the raw Hobbit data so he can play with spreadsheets all day long. My question is where can I find the raw data that Hobbit uses to create it's graphs? Namely the "trends" graph for "cpu Utilization". I've looked at the data/hist/hostname/ files, but it doesn't look like they're used for graph generation.
The graphs are generated with rrdtool. You can try "rrdtool dump" with any of the rrd files in the rrd subdirectory. 
TIA
