Create your rrd with ds minima/maxima of UN/UN and when plotting the values, use an rpn to top of the values that are too large:
toppedvalue=myds,50,GT,50,myds,IF if myds >50 then 50 else myds Serge Maandag. -----Original Message----- From: Bill Ryan [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, May 28, 2002 4:00 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [rrd-users] Newbie question Apology for the relative newbie-ness of the following: Simple graph, GAUGE MAX, Sun server CPU loads (uptime) gathered only once every 15 minutes. The loads average ~ 0.5 -> 4, but occasionally will ramp up well into the hundreds - indicative of severe NFS I/O and eventual server failure if not caught in time ... Anyway, what I need is a database which will have true values (unlimited upper boundary) but will graph, say, 0 -> 50, so the typical range of data will be viewable - but when the load spikes to past 50, rrdtool will not consider it an anomaly and will show the spikes only as topping out the graph. IOW, "-u 50" nicely keeps the graph between 0 -> 50, but removes the spikes that go beyond ... and I need this information represented as well. Any help, thx.
