Users! I have just released a bugfix release for the rrdtool 1.2.x series with backports of some of the 1.3 bugfixes.
RRDtool 1.2.28 get your copy http://oss.oetiker.ch/rrdtool/download.en.html Changes: * updates to the win32 build makefiles * several documetation fixes * complain when someone tries to create an rrd file with step size zero. * added filename to illegal updated interval error message. * fix number of rows returned by python modules fetch implementation. * improve compile comaptibility on aix * fix handling of fonts with a space in their name * fix rrd_context entries with definitions in rrd.h this prevents a potential segfault with long error messages. * make sure vdef calcs only calc as far as originally requested. * Fixed handling of unknown data at PDP build time. There was a long standing (even documented) missfeature in rrdtool which caused uknown-data to be accepted as long as it was less than the mrhb. This was never the intended behaviour and had interesting side effects (http://oss.oetiker.ch/rrdtool-trac/ticket/125): If you have a 60 Second step with 59s unknown data and 1 second of known data the whole become known data as long as the mrhb was > step. The intended behaviour was that a step should become unknown as soon as it contains more than 50% of unknown data. The patch fixes both the documentation and the code. * make sun studio 11 compiler happy * fixed dst handling in parsetime. * Generate a random cur_row for each RRA during create/restore operations. This effectively randomizes the block crossings among RRDs created around the same time. Previously, RRDs that were created/restored en masse would cross block boundaries simultaneously, which is sub-optimal. Also, this patch enables the user to see the RRA's cur_row pointer via rrdinfo. cheers tobi Brought to you by the 2008 RRDtool sponsors: ----------------------------------------------------------- GOLD: http://www.groundworkopensource.com http://www.zenoss.com SILVER: http://www.hosteurope.de http://www.atc-onlane.com http://www.terreactive.ch http://www.google.com http://www.hitflip.de http://www.op5.com http://www.lancope.com http://www.sidarion.ch ----------------------------------------------------------- -- Tobi Oetiker, OETIKER+PARTNER AG, Aarweg 15 CH-4600 Olten http://it.oetiker.ch [EMAIL PROTECTED] ++41 62 213 9902 _______________________________________________ rrd-announce mailing list [email protected] https://lists.oetiker.ch/cgi-bin/listinfo/rrd-announce
