Hi there, I'd like to add a new RRA to the RRD file. Can't figure out how to do it.
Here's some background information: I'm using Cacti 0.8.7e with rrdtool verion 1.3.8-1. I've setup my RRDs to use four custom RRAs instead of the default ones. The major difference is that there is no data point averaging being done. Here is my RRA setup (5 minute polling interval): RRA1: Daily Consolidation: average steps: 1 rows: 300 Timespan: 86400 RRA2: Weekly Consolidation: average steps: 1 rows: 2304 Timespan: 604800 RRA3: Monthly Consolidation: average steps: 1 rows: 9216 Timespan: 2592000 RRA4: Yearly Consolidation: average steps: 1 rows: 109440 Timespan: 31536000 The reason there is no averaging is because the powers from above do not want to loose any data point. They want to be able to zoom into any "peak" on the graph and be able to look at the real data as opposed to an average. However now they want to be able to keep more than a year's worth. Hard drive space is not an issue so I've opted for a ten year RRA. I just don't know how to modify an existing RRD file to incorporate these changes. I've tried some scripts to export data and import back but it doesn't seem to work. thanks in advance for your help Guy _______________________________________________ rrd-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.oetiker.ch/cgi-bin/listinfo/rrd-users
