I'm exceedingly new to RRDtool and am trying to find the simplest way to
graph data from an existing file of the format
MMM DD HH:MIN datapoint
eg
Jan 1 12:00 123
Jan 1 12:15 80
Jan 1 12:30 257
I initialized the database using
rrdtool create test.rrd --start N DS:in:GAUGE:900:U:U RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:432
To insert the data, I would like to ideally do something like
rrdtool update test.rrd `cat /tmp/data.2`
but that cleayly wont work even if I massage the data to look like
1200:123
1215:80
1230:257
For that matter,making a script that says
rrdtool update test.rrd U:123
rrdtool update test.rrd U:80
rrdtool update test.rrd U:257
wont do it
Clearly the problem is my time format. Is there some way to tell rrdtool to
just take the timestamp as is without calculating seconds from an epoch?
Thanks
