+[PNP](https://www.pnp4nagios.org) is an addon which adds a graphical representation of the performance data collected
by the monitoring plugins. The data is stored as rrd (round robin database) files.
Use your distribution's package manager to install the `pnp4nagios` package.

in combination with Icinga 2's [PerfdataWriter](14-features.md#performance-data). NPCD collects the performance
data files which Icinga 2 generates.
Set `perfdata_spool_dir = /var/spool/icinga2/perfdata` and restart the `npcd` daemon.
There's also an Icinga Web 2 module for direct PNP graph integration
