Good morning, I'm kind of newbie with rrdtool, and need to install cacti tool which uses rrdtool as a data input, but so far, I am unable to install this tool (cacti tool) under windows.
Does anyone of you guys have the exact procedure of how to install this tool? But not the "tutorial" that appears on cacti website, because in that tutorial, only appears the following: "install cacti from the zip file into a folder named cacti", and that's it!! No more info, of how to correctly install the tool, or the exact procedure how to do it. Any info would be appreciated Best regards, Edgar H Parra B MCSE, MCSA, MCP, Spectrum Engineer Systems Architect DaycoHost - Operaciones Oficina: + 58 212 999 91 00 Fax: + 58 212 999 91 01 WebSite: www.DaycoHost.com "If a program is useless, it will have to be documented" ...El Primer Data Center de VENEZUELA ... -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Alex van den Bogaerdt Sent: Tuesday, May 16, 2006 5:20 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [rrd-users] Re: Why is HRULE deprecated?

Seriously, when these changes were made I did not notice differences between "HRULE:value#color:legend" and "LINE1:value#color:legend". You argue that there is a difference and you are probably right. If indeed HRULE did not show up if outside the otherwise visible graph area (meaning: HRULE did not alter the Y-axis) then this difference between HRULE and LINE was an oversight. It could also be that things have changed. I do not know and I do not think it is important. If there is a good reason to keep HRULE then I think it should be kept in. > Is there any formal process in place for making the request to keep > HRULE? And possibly enhance it? I think the formal procedure is to discuss it on the developers list but I could very well be wrong. In any case: Tobi has the deciding vote; it's his program. -- Alex van den Bogaerdt http://www.vandenbogaerdt.nl/rrdtool/ -- Unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Help mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archive http://lists.ee.ethz.ch/rrd-users WebAdmin http://lists.ee.ethz.ch/lsg2.cgi -- Unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Help mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archive http://lists.ee.ethz.ch/rrd-users WebAdmin http://lists.ee.ethz.ch/lsg2.cgi
