Hello, I'm trying to set up the rrdtool in an environment where no real static information flow exists. This means sometimes data arrives more often sometimes it doesn't arrive at all. Although I know that rrdtool has been designed for a regular data input I like the idea of the round robin database very much.
What I did: I set up a database file: rrdtool create maik.rrd --step 2 DS:fts:GAUGE:2:U:U RRA:AVERAGE: 0.5:1:3600 now i'm trying to enter data. This should allow me half an hour of data storage. when data would be inserted in the following time line 1 second: 100 2 seconds: nothing 3 seconds: nothing 4 seconds: nothing 5 seconds: nothing 6 seconds 120 7 seconds: nothing ... 19 seconds: nothing 20 seconds 140 than i expected to fetch something like timestamp:100 timestamp:na timestamp:na timestamp:120 timestamp:na ... timestamp:na timestamp:140 but instead i see most of time only timestamp:na I don't want to extend the heartbeat intervall too much since in some areas i will have a constant dataflow, in some not. But I rather want to display the fact that there where no data points (na) than consolidating the data over a longer intervall. what can i do to see the actual stored data with the fetch command if there are also bigger gaps between certain datapoints?
