Dan, I attempted the same thing as you did. I currently run 1.0.33 but was testing 1.0.40.
With 1.0.33 I dumped an rrd and restored with the following results... dumped test.rrd (502,524 bytes) -> test1.xml (1,607,865 bytes) restore test1.xml -> test1.rrd (502,524 bytes) dumped test1.rrd -> test2.xml (1,607,865 bytes) restore test2.xml -> test2.rrd (502,524 bytes) etc etc.. With 1.0.40 I dumped an rrd and restores with the following results... dumped test.rrd (502,524 bytes) -> test1.xml (1,607,865 bytes) restore test1.xml -> test1.rrd (502,621 bytes) dumped test1.rrd -> test2.xml (1,890,564 bytes) restore test2.xml -> test2.rrd (503,333 bytes) Thus it appears to be a problem with the restore command due to the first dump having the exact same byte count. -Jase -----Original Message----- From: Dulac, Daniel (Dan) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, August 05, 2003 3:21 PM To: rrd-users Subject: [rrd-users] dump/restore appears broken Hi Hi Everyone, I have been trying to solve a problem that I thought was a bug in my script but it appears to be a problem with the dump and/or restore command with rrdtool on Windows. Test this: 1. With an existing *.rrd, run the "dump" command: rrdtool dump test.rrd >xml_orig.xml 2. Restore to a new rrd using the "restore" command: rrdtool restore test_restore.rrd xml_orig.xml 3. Now run the "dump" command on this new rrd: rrdtool dump test_restore.rrd >xml_new.xml The two xml files (xml_orig.xml and xml_new.xml) should be identical in file size and data contained within but they are not. The data in the xml_new.xml file is all messed up and corrupted! Has anyone else seen this? I am currently running 1.0.40. We also tried 1.0.45 and it still doesn't work. Is it safe to assume this a legitimate bug with rrdtool? Thanks for any input.
