Andy,<br><br><br> You are right, I was not sure if it was a specific issue or general given RRDtools. I posted parts of the script you referenced in your reply below. I have run different values and tried reading up on RRD to understand it better, given the specific database I am trying to create. This is more or less a project that I was thrown into head first and I am still trying to understand everything related to RRD. If you see anything specific regarding the data below please tell me what might be wrong.
