Hi, Thanks to Ryan's suggestion I came up with the following: Instead of using "rrdtool dump" which dumps the entire RRD and is hard to process, I used "rrdtool fetch" and specified the correct time period to select the appropriate RRA (I use +3months as I want at least 3 months of white space on

Hello, To graph all data you collect, you need three things : - max range for data - first time with data for series (need the first things). - last time with data for series. you can have the first one with this command line : rrdtool first /path/to/your.rra --rraindex x with "x" is the index o

Hi, I am assuming "rrdtool last" returns the actual last time because when you add new data to the RRD, it rotates the RRD and the stuff that was previously at the beginning interval is pushed out - to always maintain the same length and size of an RRD - you are always adding to the end? I am sta

Hi, I have been through the documentation and I can't seem to find a way for the graph to grow from the left instead of the right. So, I thought I might try and do it manually by fetching the "first" entry from the rrd - similar to the "last" function. However, as I should have expected, although

Hi, I suppose the other option, if I am unable to achieve what I wanted, is to only draw the trend line from the start of the actual data. I use the following logic to draw a trend line for data source "DS1": VDEF:DS1Slope=DS1,LSLSLOPE VDEF:DS1Int=DS1,LSLINT CDEF:DS1Trend=DS1,POP,COUNT,DS1Slope,*
