I don't. Are you sure you understand the difference between: a) the maximum of all averages b) the maximum of all maxima I ask this because I think you are viewing (a) and are looking for (b). > but my question is this.

Consolidation will occur at graph time in stead of collect time. Unless you actually use the values in that high resolution (for instance: 100 days ago to 99 days ago, in a 5-minute resolution) I don't think there is a difference. 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.
