Adrian,

First of all I would ask you to use your rrdfiles at 'complete' 5 minute 
intervals, so use 1207555200 instead of 1207636256.
If you don't, rrdtool might come up with results you don't expect.



If you use 'rrdtool info test.rrd' your file looks like this (just after the 
create):

filename = "test.rrd"
rrd_version = "0001"
step = 300
last_update = 1207636256
ds[test].type = "GAUGE"
ds[test].minimal_heartbeat = 600
ds[test].min = 0.0000000000e+00
ds[test].max = NaN
ds[test].last_ds = "UNKN"
ds[test].value = 0.0000000000e+00
ds[test].unknown_sec = 56
rra[0].cf = "AVERAGE"
rra[0].rows = 24
rra[0].pdp_per_row = 12
rra[0].xff = 5.0000000000e-01
rra[0].cdp_prep[0].value = NaN
rra[0].cdp_prep[0].unknown_datapoints = 6

I don't really understand why you put in the 12 and 24, so I just paste one of 
mine rrdfiles which has 3 RRA's so I hope this helps you to find 
What goes wrong with yours.
I update my rrdfiles once per every 5 minutes.
RRA[0] keeps the data in 5 minute intervals and it capable of holding 300 of 
those points. This gives me very detailed information over the last 24 hours 
(24*60 = 1440, 300*5 = 1500)
RRA[1] keeps the data in 15 minute intervals (step=300, pdp_per_row=3) and 
holds 3500 points. This means a total of over a month of quite detailed 
information.
RRA[2] just keeps data in a one-per-day value for a year.

rrd_version = "0001"
step = 300
last_update = 1205760907
ds[status].type = "GAUGE"
ds[status].minimal_heartbeat = 300
ds[status].min = 0.0000000000e+00
ds[status].max = 1.0000000000e+01
ds[status].last_ds = "UNKN"
ds[status].value = 0.0000000000e+00
ds[status].unknown_sec = 0
rra[0].cf = "LAST"
rra[0].rows = 300
rra[0].pdp_per_row = 1
rra[0].xff = 5.0000000000e-01
rra[0].cdp_prep[0].value = NaN
rra[0].cdp_prep[0].unknown_datapoints = 0
rra[0].cdp_prep[1].value = NaN
rra[0].cdp_prep[1].unknown_datapoints = 0
rra[1].cf = "LAST"
rra[1].rows = 3500
rra[1].pdp_per_row = 3
rra[1].xff = 5.0000000000e-01
rra[1].cdp_prep[0].value = 0.0000000000e+00
rra[1].cdp_prep[0].unknown_datapoints = 0
rra[1].cdp_prep[1].value = 0.0000000000e+00
rra[1].cdp_prep[1].unknown_datapoints = 0
rra[2].cf = "LAST"
rra[2].rows = 365
rra[2].pdp_per_row = 288
rra[2].xff = 5.0000000000e-01
rra[2].cdp_prep[0].value = 0.0000000000e+00
rra[2].cdp_prep[0].unknown_datapoints = 6
rra[2].cdp_prep[1].value = 0.0000000000e+00
rra[2].cdp_prep[1].unknown_datapoints = 6

I hope this helps.

Regards,
Martin

Hi Martin,

First thank you for confirming me the missing specification of the TOTAL 
function :)) I thought that i didn't search enougth the net :)

Before i deploy my application i have tried to test first and see how it works 
if i updated the rrd in the future through a loop where updateTime = startTime 
+ step. Anyway i do have some problems understanding also the function AVERAGE 
since for the following example the function AVERAGE return/compute something 
different than expected:

create "test.rrd" --start 1207636256 --step 300 DS:test:GAUGE:600:0.0:U
RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:12:24 rrdtool update test.rrd 1207636556:40 rrdtool update 
test.rrd 1207636856:20 rrdtool update test.rrd 1207637156:60 rrdtool update 
test.rrd 1207637456:0 rrdtool update test.rrd 1207637756:0 rrdtool update 
test.rrd 1207638056:10 rrdtool update test.rrd 1207638356:0 rrdtool update 
test.rrd 1207638656:30 rrdtool update test.rrd 1207638956:0 rrdtool update 
test.rrd 1207639256:0 rrdtool update test.rrd 1207639556:80 rrdtool update 
test.rrd 1207639856:0 rrdtool graph "test.gif" --start 1207636256 --end
1207639856 DEF:myTest=test.rrd:test:AVERAGE

It meas i have to update each 5 min the rrd and for 12 values i get one of the 
24 sample in the archive. That means if i write 12 values having the sum 240, 
then i have to get 20 for the first of the 24 values. Is wrong or correct? Is a 
possibility to wrote the 12 values in the rrd and to get for the 1st of the 24 
samples the sum of those 12 values? If yes how? Could you sent me an example? 
Thank you again.

Regards,
Adrian Koepe.

Hi Adrian,

My rrdtool has lots of problems with the Consolidation Function TOTAL and
with the use of the word NOW in the update statemet and I can't find any
comment on either on the webpage of www.rrdtool.org so I'm kinda struggling
here.

My -guess- is that you're updating in the future (NOW+120) and fetching from
the past NOW-24*60

Regards,
Martin

hello,

i'm new to rrdtool - i know that my question has been put in the past at
least for several times and yes i read the tutorial/man pages - and i try to
do the following:
- read each min / 5th min a value, store it in the rrd and get the sum of
all these values for 1 hour.
- create the daily graph (in hour step), the weekly graph (day step), the
monthly graph (week step) and the yearly graph (month step)
- so based on the tutorial i've created the following files and results:

create "test.rrd" --start NOW --step 60 DS:test:GAUGE:120:0.0:U
RRA:TOTAL:0.5:60:24 rrdtool update test.rrd NOW+60:10 NOW+120:0 NOW+180:20
... rrdtool fetch test.rrd TOTAL --start NOW-24*60 --end NOW

the result is NaN for all 24 hours. Why? What did i misunderstood?!

Regards,
Adrian.
