Question re: DSTs. I would like to get data from a socket every 2 seconds (packet data) and get the number of packets received every second. Since the packet data is available only every 2 seconds, I was planning on getting the 1st set of data, and dividing it by 2, then the next 2 seconds, getting that data, divide it by 2, then get the difference between the 1st set and the 2nd set. Then store that into the database.
I guess I am not sure what DST to use. If I use COUNTER or GAUGE? I believe Counter stores the actual value but the amount has to be > than the previous amount stored. Any thoughts? -- Unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Help mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archive http://www.ee.ethz.ch/~slist/rrd-users WebAdmin http://www.ee.ethz.ch/~slist/lsg2.cgi
