I did.. I quickly stopped looking further when it came to manage the connectivity between the server and the boxes gathering the data. The idea of setting up VPN and secured robust link on what is going to be an unreliable connection (well, reliable enough so I could do things like a quick rsync). The remote boxes are typically connected via ADSL with a dynamic IP... How does rrdcache deal with issue like the server suddenly not being there. Is the data temporarily stored and passed on the server when it is once again available? I figured it would just be faster and less trouble to look at the ability to export/import a rrd file across various architectures, but without the need to do a dump/restore that creates huge files _______________________________________________ rrd-users mailing list rrd-users@lists.oetiker.ch https://lists.oetiker.ch/cgi-bin/listinfo/rrd-users
