Hi,

After many attempts to s ubscribe and post to this list (seemed it only worked 
when s ubscribe (without the space) was put in the body as well as the 
subject), I found that there was in fact a thread regarding my question.
I am attempting to create a very simple RRA, containing the maximum value per 
day. I feed it values every minute, and since im using MAX and want the actual 
maximum value ever, I have a step of one minute (and a high heartbeat value). 
Before someone pulls their hair out, no, I'm not complaining about this 
behaviour 
But I am complaining about my data being consolidated at 10am every day. It 
took a long time for me to figure out exactly what the problem was, I was 
initially under the impression things got consolidated when there was enough 
data (ie, if consolidating every day, and you created it at 11:34pm, the values 
would be consolidated at 11:34pm every day). This is what I thought --start was 
for in create, perhaps this should be documented? I now understand how/why it 
works this way though...
I live in EST, which is UTC+10, which is why my data gets consolidated at 10am, 
and I would really rather it was consolidated at midnight. However! Since the 
maximum value is very unlikely to happen between midnight and 10am (more likely 
to happen between 6pm-10pm), a quick hack would be to offset the graph 10 
hours, and noone would be any the wiser. Is this possible? I'd rather it 
consolidated at midnight though.
Please advise if I've got things completely wrong too, I'm very new to this 
rrdtool shiz.
