[rrd-users] Advanced Averaging w/ RPN

2001-11-12 Thread Chris Snell
Hi All, I'm trying to average a bunch of values which may or may not contain NaN values. If there are NaN's, I want to drop them from the average. In other words, if we have: [ 4 6 NaN 2 ] we would drop the NaN and now we'd have: [ 4 6 2 ] and then we'd average those to get

Hi All, I've set up RRDtool and a heavily-modified version of Bronc here to do some performance and usage graphing. Currently, I'm monitoring about 1200 hosts with many more to come. All was going well until today when I attempted to make some graphs which showed utilization of an entire se

Hi All, I'm having a strange problem and I'm wondering if anyone else has run into it. I'm noticing a lot of slowness when updating an RRD file with many DS'es under Solaris. Updates are taking as long as 10 seconds on this (unloaded) Enterprise 250 machine. I've never had this problem bef

Ooops, last message got cut off. Anyhow, Colt is a utility that would run under mod_perl on a central server. Your remote machines can gather data and then report it back to Colt via a HTTP GET. Colt then logs the data to the RRD of your choice. Included in the tarball is some example Perl
