Hello!
I just read the tutorial and there are still a few things i dont understand.
-------------------
rrdtool create test.rrd \
--start 920804400 \
DS:speed:COUNTER:600:U:U \
RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:24 \
RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:6:10
What has been created ?
We created the round robin database ...
-------------------
- What does 920804400 stand for? For a time value or for a whole date (7th
of march, 1999)? If its the start time, it should alwas be the current time,
right?
- COUNTER:600 his counter is read every five minutes. Well, what does 600
stand for? 10mins? 10 averages?
rrdtool update test.rrd 920804700:12345
^^^^ time where the value 12345 was
captured?
I want to use rrdtool to monitor my edonkey traffic. I will get the values
(bytes) from a iptables script.
I will run this script every 3 seconds to update the data base.
Do i need to run:
rrdtool creat test.rrd .... once?
rrdtool update test.rrd 920804700:$iptab_value .... every 3seconds in my
case?
cheers, Mario Ohnewald
