[rrd-users] Q: rrd archive large enough?
Hello, As a Unix administrator, I've been trying out the combination of webmin + sysstats + rrdtool to analyse system usage every minute: DS:user:GAUGE:100:0:U DS:system:GAUGE:100:0:U DS:iowait:GAUGE:100:0:U DS:idle:GAUGE:100:0:U RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:70 RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:2:750 RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:15:650 RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:50:650 Later, 4 graphs (hourly, daily, weekly, and monthly) are plotted using "rrdtool graph" with the start times (--start): hour_time=-3600 day_time=-86400 week_time=-604800 month_time=-18748800 and end time of -60 (--end) Can anyone tell me if the RRA's have sufficient storage to cover the periods plotted by the graph using the above start times and end time.

[rrd-users] Peaks in Graphs!!!
Dear All, As I know one of the main advantages of using rrdtool as a tool of graphing for mrtg,is detecting the counter wrapping and so consequently,preventing peaks appearance in graphs. But now ;and after i switched to rrdtool; i found a very large peak appearing in most on graphs at the same time Do anyone have any suggesstions what may be the cause of this peak?? Have a nice day, Thanks, Shahira -- Unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Helpmailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archive http://www.ee.ethz.ch/~slist/rrd-users WebAdminhttp://www.ee.ethz.ch/~slist/lsg2.cgi

[rrd-users] Re: HELP: Adding 2 vaues with same timestamp
It usually doesn't make sense to update a record with two different values for the same time stamp. For example, there can't be a total of 2 as well as a total of 5 people in a room at one time. If you want to add two records for a graph however, you can use CDEF's. Is this what you want to do?

[rrd-users] Re: why is there no RRDs::first?
If you want to present only the range for which data is available, isn't that in effect _all_ the data anyway? So why do you need first and last? Just graph everything. - Original Message - From: "Chris Majewski" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Tuesday, May 07, 2002 2:33 AM Subject: [rrd-users] why is there no RRDs::first? > > Folks > I'm writing a CGI script for graphing router throughput.

[rrd-users] This should be easy...
Peeps, Have starting moving some of my mrtg info to rrd and struct an interesting problem. I used to graphs CPU usage as the figure * 1000 to get nicer graphs.. Thus creating data like 2000, 3000, 4000 etc. This was fine to fix under mrtg as I can edit the .log file. Now I have removed the * 1000 data and converted to rrd log file format. Trying to figure the syntax of the rrd dump and restore functions has got me stumped. Let alone the xml format. Does anymore have some simple way. I have seen the --range check which looks perfect but how do I set the "Max Value" of the RRA ? -range-check|-r Make sure the values in the RRAs do not exceed the limits defined for the different datasources. I dont really care what happens to the data thats > 1000 thats too old to worry about.. Just that the more recent data that is < 1000 does not appear on the Yearly graphs..
