Hello everybody, I have succesfully set up SmokePing 2.0rc5 with RRDtool 1.2.11, and sudddenly I found that the resolution of my gathered data (I run FPing every 60 seconds) is lower when viewing older data. I think that I found what is causing this: it's the parameter "AVERAGE 0.5 1 1008" in the configuration file. If I understand it correctly, it means that the data with my desired resolution (1 minute) are kept only for the 1008 last occurences (meaning less than 17 hours). Older data are available only with resolution 12 minutes (covered by "AVERAGE 0.5 12 4320"), and I guess that even older data (older that 12*4320 minutes) would be available with resolution 144 minutes (covered by "AVERAGE 0.5 144 720"). Here are my questions:
1) Are there any limitations when choosing those RRDtool database parameters? Currently I am aware of the disk space requirements only. 2) How can those RRDtool database parameters be configured differently for different hosts (when using the FPing probe)? 3) What needs to be done to keep the data which I have already gathered when I decide to change those RRDtool database parameters? Thanks is advance for any responses.
