Greetings all, I admit I am an RRD newbie, but I have read all the tutorials and manuals and have tried several times to get this right. I think I need a little nudge in the right direction, and I hope someone here can help.
My goal is a spam / email graph. I am getting the numbers everyday of how many emails are blocked by all the different methods we use to block spam, plus the legitimate email. I have created a simplistic prototype: rrdtool create mail.rrd -b 1063677780 \ --step 86400 \ DS:tot_mail:ABSOLUTE:129600:U:U \ DS:legit_mail:ABSOLUTE:129600:U:U \ RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:30 \ RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:7:52 rrdtool update mail.rrd \ -t tot_mail:legit_mail \ 1063793700:2632:1749 rrdtool update mail.rrd \ -t tot_mail:legit_mail \ 1063880100:2949:1769 rrdtool update mail.rrd \ -t tot_mail:legit_mail \ 1063966500:2365:1525 and then: rrdtool fetch mail.rrd AVERAGE -s 1063677780 1063670400: nan nan 1063756800: 2.2705314010e-02 1.5087991718e-02 1063843200: 2.9251821030e-02 1.8174033307e-02 1063929600: 3.0259452160e-02 1.8856577932e-02 1064016000: nan nan 1064102400: nan nan 1064188800: nan nan My question is: I do not want averages, I want real numbers. I thought I was going to get real numbers because of the RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:30. What should I be doing differently? Am I on the right path at all? Any comments, suggestions, pointers, RTFMs are greatly appreciated. -G Pardon this rubbish: This electronic message transmission is a PRIVATE communication which contains information which may be confidential or privileged.
