I have been using the Eluna Graph System for several years, as I like it's simplicity.

As per this post, I graph my ESXi disk temperatures so that I can keep an eye on them.

Content of create.sh:

#!/bin/bash

rrdtool create esxi_disks.rrd \
  --start `date +%s` \
  --step 300 \
  DS:disk1:GAUGE:600:0:U \
  DS:disk2:GAUGE:600:0:U \
  DS:disk3:GAUGE:600:0:U \
  DS:disk4:GAUGE:600:0:U \
  DS:disk5:GAUGE:600:0:U \
  DS:disk6:GAUGE:600:0:U \
  RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:2016 \
  RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:6:1344 \
  RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:24:732 \
  RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:144:1460
