[rrd-users] Re: Convert from MRTG to RRD

[Geert van der Ploeg]

Hi,

Read Alex van den Bogaerdt's tutorial, at
http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/rrdtool/tutorial/rrdtutorial.html

And, once you've read that, for further reference, the complete manual:
http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/rrdtool/manual/index.html

Then, if you've got specific questions, you can always ask them on this
mailinglist.

HTH,

Geert van der Ploeg

[Gerhard Ecaroh Froehlich]

Hi,

have a look at:



this would be good starting point. There's a lot of "open source" written code
on which you can build your environment. Read the archives, there are some
recent postings round front and backends with personal annotations and reports
of useability.

As a quick hint from my experience: Do not use MRTG as a collector for RRDTool.
MRTG is a good piece of software for small environments but is not that
extendible nor has it compact configurations files. Or do you want to end up in
twice x 10 000 lines "mrtg.cfg" like me before migrating to rrdtool?

Bye, Ecaroh

Hi.

I'm introducing to the RRd's world, I would like to know more about RRDtool
to be able to do my own database and feed this with RRDtool. I'd like to
someone can send me some sample code, as Max is requiring. May be this can help
more to people like Max and Me to understand more this powerfull tool.

Thank you in advance
