Alex, Thank you for your comments. I should have made it clearer. I simply did a dump/restore on the SAME system, namely OPenBSD, which generated the error on the restore. Subsequently, I started the collection on the SPARC. The dump/restore worked fine there. I suspect that OpenBSD has a problem with undefined values, since I corrected the min values that should have been "U", but were shown as unprintables in the .xml file. Now the problem has shown up elsewhere. I would still like to migrate the rdds from the OPenBSD to the SPARC. I am considering a script thst would "rrdtool fetch", followed by an "rrdtool update" into an existing .rrd created by cricket. Of course ther would have to be some hacking of the original cricket .rrd file.

Are you using the same rrdtool version on both platforms? The dump/restore mechanism should work however if the format has changed (it probably did so many times) it may be possible that you run into problems. It shouldn't happen but it might. Try dump and restore on each platform, so restore a dumped file on the same platform. If that works out properly and if you don't have a version difference, you've discovered a bug. 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.
