I'm fairly sure you can, but you'd need to do your own (non standard) data source setups. I suspect you might be better doing your own data collection as I'm not sure how well Cacti handles lots of high-frequency collection tasks - I have a fair number of RRDs where I collect the data externally but graph it in Cacti. But the accuracy will still only be as good as the collection frequency (and it's relation to the rate of change of the measured value). If the measured value can (for example) rise sharply and drop back again in between samples then even the max function won't tell you anything about it. _______________________________________________ rrd-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.oetiker.ch/cgi-bin/listinfo/rrd-users
