Hi Alex Thanks for the reply, I really need to run multiple rrdupdates at the same time as I have loads of data in text files to turn in to RRD files and running 1 update command at a time isn't quick enough to keep up with the amounts of text files I am producing.
Thanks anyway :-) Richard > > I have read past posts on the problems people have been having with > > writing multi threaded Perl scripts with RRDTool. > > > > I am trying to write one which uses rrdupdate and rrdcreate > via the perl > > bindings and the script crashes. > > > > Would it be true to say that there is not way at present I > am going to > > get this working?
