Hi Rick, Okay that --end works except for 1 graph For it reports the following ERROR: start (1328730501) should be less than end (1328688001)
The command I'm using is rrdtool graph --slope-mode --start -6h --end 1328688001 That stumped me for a while why that error was happening. That was the first graph command and it always generates wrongly, I didn't not bother to look the other graphs which were more correct. Until I realised that -6h is -6 hours from now.. not from the end time. So now I think I need to modify the script so that the --start will have a value of -6h (in seconds) from the end time seconds. Then it should not generate an error. Thanks for the pointer.

Presumably with the --end option? rick jones _______________________________________________ rrd-users mailing list rrd-users@lists.oetiker.ch https://lists.oetiker.ch/cgi-bin/listinfo/rrd-users
