[rrd-users] Re: first time creation

[Chughtai, Haris]

you should create your rrd with min and max.If you are not sure about your min/max, leave them undefinied. Try following

rrdtool create test.rrd --step 300 \
DS:test:ABSOLUTE:600:U:U \
RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:2400

Subject: [rrd-users] first time creation


Hi,

didn't really find anything helpful in the archives and I thought I followed
the documentation correctly?  What am I doing wrong here?

rrdtool create test.rrd --step 300 \
DS:test:ABSOLUTE:600 \
RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:2400

I keep getting this error: can't parse arguement 'DS:test:ABSOLUTE:600'

Thanks in advance,

Steve
