ML> 0.09:0.06:0.06:50284:84%:1%:35%:74%:4:20
ML> updating sysstat rrd database
ML> ERROR: conversion of '84%' to float not complete: tail '%'
ML> One or two minutes later it seems to work?!? Here is the output:
ML> [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/_scripts/rrd# ./rrd_sysstat.sh
ML> 0.02:0.02:0.02:35572:84%:1%:35%:74%:4:21

ML> I think the " % " should not be the problem.

i had the same problem with my current rrdtool version 1.0.46 RRDs.
in my perl script it would complain about:
$procs=(`find /proc -maxdepth 1 -name '[1-9]*' -print | wc -l | sed 's/\t +//'
| sed 's/ *//'`);
which outputs with couple blank spaces.(if u try it u will see what i
am talking about) ... and the error was scalar to float ... something.
i've tried to set up a scalar() wrapup for the variable ... didn't worked.
so ... what's left [and works] is completly remove spaces with the following:
open(PS, "find /proc -maxdepth 1 -name '[1-9]*' -print | wc -l | sed 's/\t +//'
| sed 's/ *//' |") || die "error: $!";
while(<PS>){
$_ =~ s/^\s+//;
$_ =~ s/\s+$//;
$procs=$_;
}
close(PS);
u're problem should be solved the same way since u're parsing uptime's
output {maybe? ... guessing} ..... [but in perl] not in bash [don't
see how remove with nifty shell tools white/blank spaces in a
reasonable way]
seems that RRDs complains now [didn't until now...] about some of our bad
habits of perl coding.
