I got it. I just echo'd that value to awk like this:
echo 1.1000000000e+01 | awk '{printf "%4.2f", $1}'

[rrd-users] fech last value from an rrd
Hi all,
I've been using rrdtool for awhile now through apps like MRTG, Cacti,
Nagiosgraph, and the like. I have a situation right now where my company
has an IBM p570 that we are trying to plot some data points as to see how
much of the 570 is really being allocated to LPARs and actually being
used. When I used `rrdtool fetch` to get the information needed, I see
that its there, but in scientific notation.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] nagiosgraph]$ /usr/local/rrdtool/bin/rrdtool fetch
rrd/tsm02_LPARSTAT_lparstat.rrd AVERAGE -r 300 -s -5min
timestamp physc ent entc
1135175400: 1.0000000000e+00 1.1000000000e+01 3.4600000000e+01
1135175700: 1.0000000000e+00 1.1000000000e+01 7.7400000000e+01
1135176000: nan nan nan
[EMAIL PROTECTED] nagiosgraph]$
I have the value that I want to plot by awking and grepping to get the
value of my "ent" DS = "1.1000000000e+01"
Does anyone know of a way to convert 1.1000000000e+01 into the number that
I want, which is 11?
I do realize that I could use awk and sed to get, for example, everything
before the "e" and then do the same to get the +01 and then do
calculations on those. But if there is already a tool out there to do
this in the unix world, I'd love to use it.
Thanks,
Joe
