Can you assist me with the formula in this particular case?
Again, it's fairly simple. You probably want something like this : RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:290 RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:6:336 RRA:MINIMUM:0.5:6:336 RRA:MAXIMUM:0.5:6:336 That's 288 samples * 5 minutes = 1 day. If you are precise with your graph start & end times then 288 will work. 5 minutes means 12 samples/hour, times 24 hours, gives 288. That will do you for your hour and day graphs. For your longer graphs, 6 PDP/CDP gives 30 minute bins. 2 bins/hour, times 24 hours, times 7 days, gives 336. And of course, if you want to be bale to graph Max and Min in addition to average, then you need to store it when consolidating. To recap. You need to say now many primary data point are in each consolidated data point. Each consolidated data point will cover step time times PDP per CDP periods of time - eg 300s times 6 is 1800s. Then you need to say how many of these consolidated points to keep. -- Simon Hobson Visit http://www.magpiesnestpublishing.co.uk/ for books by acclaimed author Gladys Hobson.
