In message <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> you write: >them with RRDtool. The RRDtool tutorial was not helpful at all. Examples
Some example shell scripts to create and update rrd graphs of ntpq derived data are at: http://www.wraith.sf.ca.us/ntp/index.html#monitoring The general idea, is you first create a database with the rrdtool create command. A couple of the parameters setup the period (poll interval) and time (how many minutes worth of data) to keep. Then you crontab your poll. I'm using ntpq as Dave Mills suggests the data grabbed in this fashion is "more correct" than, say, ntpdc. At the same time, my script also generates the new graphs, although you could, for instance, generate the plots on demand instead. Some graphs that are generated this way are at: http://www.wraith.sf.ca.us/ntp/rrd/index.html Have fun and don't forget to post the url of your plot data so everyone can see the data. ../Steven _______________________________________________ timekeepers mailing list [email protected] https://fortytwo.ch/mailman/cgi-bin/listinfo/timekeepers
