Hello all,

You can find 'attached' a small 'zipped' (yes, winzipped) module done for
computing statistics on rrd files. No makefile to build it on unix, but no
problem to do that.

what it does : 

- average, min, max, distribution values.
- very fast.
- very simple to add new functions.

README for stats module for rrd
-------------------------------

1 : how to build
        (if you use the NT binary distribution, all is included)
        - add rrd_statsl.c to the rrd library built
        - compile the rrd_stats.c
        - link rrd_stats with rrd library, and you have a command-line
rrd_stats
        
        - replace the perl-shared rrds.xs, and rebuild the rest

2 : examples
        there are some examples in perl-shared/t, some of them requires the
CHART module

3 : documentation

                usage: (4 function are implemented, perl-type call is
described)
        
----------------------------------------------------------------
                mean/max/min: computes the average / minimum / maxmimum /
integration value for a rrd     
                database, for each ds
                my ($step, $start, $end, $res, $names) = 
                        RRDs::stats $rrd,
"func:pstep:cf","--start=stime","--end=etime";
                parameters:
                 func : mean/max/min/int
                 pstep : proposed step (function funds the best based on
time-range and rra/step availability)
                 cf : consolidation function
                 stime-etime : measure time
                results: 
                 $step : the step that was found and choosen
                 $start, $end : the really start and end
                 $res : list of result
                 $names : list of corresponding ds names
                examples: 
                 my ($step, $start, $end, $avg, $names) = RRDs::stats $rrd,
"mean:300:AVERAGE","--start=-1m";
                 my ($step, $start, $end, $avg, $names) = RRDs::stats $rrd,
"min:300:AVERAGE","--start=-1d";
                 my ($step, $start, $end, $avg, $names) = RRDs::stats $rrd,
"max:300:AVERAGE","--start=-1w";
                 my ($step, $start, $end, $avg, $names) = RRDs::stats $rrd,
"int:300:AVERAGE","--start=-1w";
        
----------------------------------------------------------------
                dist: computes the distribution of values for a given ds in
an rrd
                my ($step, $start, $end, $before, $after, $res) = 
                        RRDs::stats $rrd,
"dist:minval:maxval:ds:nbdist:pstep:cf",
                                "--start=stime","--end=etime";
                parameters:
                 pstep : proposed step (function funds the best based on
time-range and rra/step availability)
                 ds : name of ds
                 nbdist : number of interval to compute dist (between minval
and maxval)
                 cf : consolidation function
                 stime-etime : measure time
                 maxval, minval : minimum and maximum value to compute the
distribution
                results: 
                 $step : the step that was found and choosen
                 $start, $end : the really start and end
                 $res : list of results
                 $before, $after : results that are <minval(before) of >
maxval(after)
                example: 
                my ($step, $sta, $en, $before, $after, $res) = RRDs::stats
$rrd,                                   
        
"dist:0:100:ds1:10:300:AVERAGE","--start=-1d";
        
----------------------------------------------------------------
                rrd_stats choose the rra with the following rules : (not
same as fetch or graph)
                - for each rra it computes an overlap factor that is the
factor between the requested 
                  range (end-start) and the available range of this rra
                - for overlap factor that are not 'very' different (90%), it
take the step that is 
                  closest from the proposed step );
