Package: rrdtool
Version: 1.4.3-1~bpo50+1
Severity: normal
When I try to resize my rrd databases I get the following error message:
ERROR: attempting to write beyond end of file
As I upgraded rrdtool to the version from backports because the version
from stable (1.3.1-4) corrupted all my databases on a resize this message
makes me very suspicious. The result of the resize looks good as far as
I can see with a dump, but still the message don't let me trust in it.
I can easily reproduce the error with the following 2 commands:
$ rrdtool create test.rrd DS:a:GAUGE:600:0:100 DS:b:GAUGE:600:0:100
DS:c:GAUGE:600:0:100 RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:600 RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:6:600
RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:24:600 RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:288:1800
$ rrdtool resize test.rrd 3 GROW 2400
ERROR: attempting to write beyond end of file
Regards
Uwe
