Hi there, I have a little problem with rrdtool that makes me crazy:
I've read all manual I've found and the only thing which may help me was something under the following URL http://ee-staff.ethz.ch/~oetiker/webtools/rrdtool/tutorial/rrdtutorial.html at the end of this mail. Here is my Problem: I want to use 60 second instead of 300 seconds between my samples. Do I have to store 5 times the amount of data to get the same results (graphs) via rrdcgi? e.g. 5 * 600 1 minute samples 6 * 700 30 minute samples 5 * 775 2 hour samples ... or is it enough that I only multiply the first two values with 5 Any suggestions welcome Thanks in advance for all your help J.
