interval from 1098794400 to 1098794700 is updated, and the rate is remembered because it is also valid between 1098794700 and 1098794701 This rate is unknown (here) but it is also not important for this explanation. > > # UPDATE TIME: Tue Oct 26 14:50:01 2004 > rrdtool update test.rrd --template count 1098795001:6000 interval from 1098794700 to 1098795000 is updated, using the rate previously remembered, and the current rate. Also, the rate is remembered because it is valid between 1098795000 and 1098795001 (6000-5000) per 300 seconds -> rate = 10/3 > # UPDATE TIME: Tue Oct 26 14:55:01 2004 > rrdtool update test.rrd --template count 1098795301:100 interval from 1098795000 to 1098795300 is updated, using the rate previously remembered, and the current rate.
