Have you considered the impact this would have on speed? Even if we forget about locking problems, it takes ages (compared to local access) to fetch the data. Even on very fast networks you suffer from setting up a connection. I'm not sure how this would have to be setup. Perhaps each box would need a RRD server to process requests locally (thereby avoiding the long file locking). The resulting data can be sent over to the client for further processing. Consolidation would have to be done on the client side, unless the server is told in which resolution the data needs to be. As this can only be calculated after all available resolutions are known to the client, this would IMHO be hard to do. How important is this feature to you? Can't you create a setup where data that needs to be combined is always on the same box? cheers, -- __________________________________________________________________ / [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] \ | work private | | My employer is capable of speaking therefore I speak only for myself | +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Technical questions sent directly to me will be nuked.
