I guess I have the step value at: DS:cnt:COUNTER:300:U:U \
Should I change it to 3600? Does this solve the -too early errors- that I get?

To create the RRD file, I used this command: rrdtool create test.rrd \ --start 920804400 \ DS:cnt:COUNTER:300:U:U \ RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:6:576 rd_update only accepts the 1st update command, but for the rest of updates, It gives me error and says that it is too soon to update. I want to be bale to update the RRD data file as much as I want (even five samples per second) and have RRD just average them and gives me one value per hour. What would be the proper rrd_create parameters, to create an rrd file for hourly sample and also be able to update it as fast as I can and RRD just stores the average value? Any help would be appreciated, Alan -- 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
