If there is a limit in RRD, I haven't been able to find it. I have run RRD with upwards of 30 Data sources per file, upwards of 1000 files, each file with 300 RRAs (yes, 300 RRAs; I had an error in my code that built 10 RRAs per DS instead of 10 RRAs for the whole file.) And it worked great. I was able to update all 30,000 in less than 60 seconds on a P3-933MHz w/ 256MB RAM. :)
About your question of "three lines in a graph" thing, the LINE1, LINE2 and LINE3 things are not "First Line," "Second Line," and "Third LIne." They are "Line 1 pixel wide," "Line 2 pixels wide," and "Line 3 pixels wide." You can have as many LINEx entries per graph command as you can fit on the command line (and this is OS dependant.) 8 should not be a problem. -Mark Andrew W Baines wrote: > Have started to look at rrd and like all the features that > i've read thru , the tutorial was a big help , and am now > running this to graph a number of lan statistics and plot > load on ups' etc . > > Whats the limit on DS's for one RRA man page idicates several . > > Whats the limit on lines per graph man page indicates three ? > but there seems to be a few more on examples and screen shots ? > > I have limited programming skills at have been using > unix scripts with net-snmp to this point .Would like to gather > 1 variable from 8 source ,and plot them all on the same graph . > is this possible or is the limit indeed - three - > > thks.........ab > > > -- > Unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Help mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Archive http://www.ee.ethz.ch/~slist/rrd-users > WebAdmin http://www.ee.ethz.ch/~slist/lsg2.cgi -- Unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Help mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archive http://www.ee.ethz.ch/~slist/rrd-users WebAdmin http://www.ee.ethz.ch/~slist/lsg2.cgi
