Not just that. If it's 2 years worth of data, this means 730 or so days with evenso number of DEFs. You may run into performance problems or even limits. Perhaps it just won't fit in a script (hint: pipe mode may still work). First of all make sure you have those 2 years in the resolution required ("standard" examples speak of 2 years, but only part of it is hi-res). Then, perhaps you can generate your numbers using rrdtool in pipe mode, xport each day, and process the results outside rrdtool using e.g. perl? Another possible unexpected detail: depending on where you live, you may find that you are adding up different "wall clock" times. Make sure you understand timezones and daylight saving / summer time. _______________________________________________ rrd-users mailing list rrd-users@lists.oetiker.ch https://lists.oetiker.ch/cgi-bin/listinfo/rrd-users
