But say the last recorded CDP in the month RRA was a day ago, the last_update and the last timestamp would be separated by a day using that method.

The starting timestamp for the "month" RRA can then be computed. Using the default RRA definitions, it should be something like: last_updated - 2459520 (=15*244*672) On Tue, Jul 27, 2010 at 15:32, Stevens, Weston J <[email protected]> wrote: > Say for default Ganglia for example I wanted to grab the first and last > timestamps for the month RRA so I can run a bounds check on begin/end time > inputs.
