I don't think that there is anything inherent in the .rrd files to distinguish a "stock" metric (e.g. from gmond) from a "custom" one (e.g. sent via gmetric). However, gmetad does keep track of the source of the data, and can provide that. I think that this means if a metric hasn't been updated since gmetad was started, gmetad won't know about it (I'm not 100% sure about that). -- Jesse Becker GPG Fingerprint -- BD00 7AA4 4483 AFCC 82D0 2720 0083 0931 9A2B 06A2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
