Hey Kees.... I've used VDEF simply for giving a cumulative total for a CDEF for the entire period of the graph... Not graphing the per unit of time total for a time period (if that makes sense). (Maybe I wasn't following the thread closely enough? )
I think you're right that it is alot trickier with rrdtool to accomplish the latter.

I'm cuurently using rrdtool 1.1, but haven't discovered the advantage of VDEF yet ;) Recently I tried to make the same thing with rrdtool 1.1, selecting data for a month (in this case, 1-aug-2003 -> 31-aug-2003) with a resolution of 86400 (a day, doh ;)) and plotting the average * 86400. But I ran into a few problems. First rrdtool cant create bars, only an area that looks like a lot of bars. And secondly, the grid and data won't correspond with each other (the graph won't start at the gridline but the first line appears around 2~4 px later) I made a quick graph to show how I have it now: http://130.89.224.242/stats/img/total/total_traffic_test.png That is how I have it now, but I want it to look more like: http://130.89.224.242/stats/img/total/gb.png (with 'real' bars and not the inconsequent jumps from the first graph) I'm afraid it won't be possible with rrdtool, but maybe someone else has come further in creating bars then I am and is willing to share that knowledge. -kees On Tuesday 19 August 2003 19:32, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Also, you can use VDEF from RRDTool 1.1 > > I've used this in the lab to good success... > > Now I'm just waiting for it to be rolled into the stable branch. > > SM > -- Unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Help mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archive http://www.ee.ethz.ch/~slist/rrd-users WebAdmin http://www.ee.ethz.ch/~slist/lsg2.cgi ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Equinox Converged Solutions Limited.
