The same update is called everytime, rrdtool update ${STUBDIR}/stats_${ID}.rrd ${EPOCH}:${SELECT}:${INSERT}:${UPDATE}:${DELETE}:${BREAD}:${BWRITE}:${DREAD} :${DWRITE}:${RATIO}:${SEQSCANS}
All the data values come from the database where the columns are defined as int8 (8 byte ints). Their values can go negative if we wrap past the int8 max, if the database is restarted then the values start again from zero The rrd is defined as rrdtool create ${FNAME} \ --start ${EPOCH} \ DS:select:COUNTER:600:U:U \ DS:insert:COUNTER:600:U:U \ DS:update:COUNTER:600:U:U \ DS:delete:COUNTER:600:U:U \ DS:bread:COUNTER:600:U:U \ DS:bwrite:COUNTER:600:U:U \ DS:dread:COUNTER:600:U:U \ DS:dwrite:COUNTER:600:U:U \ DS:ratio:COUNTER:600:U:U \ DS:seqscans:COUNTER:600:U:U \ RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:600 \ RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:6:700 \ RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:24:775 \ RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:288:797 They are 4 distinct rrd templates but they all follow the above 'style'. I have around 70K rrds defined at the moment, of which maybe 2-300 show 'problems' Cheers Paul -----Original Message----- From: Tobias Oetiker [mailto:t...@oetiker.ch] Sent: Friday, April 20, 2012 10:27 AM To: Paul Watson Cc: rrd-users@lists.oetiker.ch Subject: RE: [rrd-users] Not a simple unsigned integer Hi Paul, Today Paul Watson wrote: > True but ..... > > Having reset ALL the rrds and then ran the raw data through successfully > with rrdtool 1.3.8 I then reset again and ran with rrdtool 1.4.7 and got the > following > > stats_00093.rrd: not a simple unsigned integer: '-4997672' > stats_00095.rrd: not a simple unsigned integer: '-6556514' > stats_00109.rrd: not a simple unsigned integer: '-5429246' > stats_00166.rrd: not a simple unsigned integer: '-1904720' > stats_00167.rrd: not a simple unsigned integer: '-6629670' > stats_00172.rrd: not a simple unsigned integer: '-3321973' > stats_00178.rrd: not a simple unsigned integer: '-5320095' > stats_00179.rrd: not a simple unsigned integer: '-7117550' > stats_00253.rrd: not a simple unsigned integer: '-3944869' > stats_00300.rrd: not a simple unsigned integer: '-6854738' > > Note the rrds are number sequentially and the problem only affects some > rrds, all are defined that same.
