<div dir="ltr"><font face="lucida console" size="2">I am looking for a more granular way to "reset" all the data in an rrd.</font></div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="lucida console" size="2">I track lots of data and I have about a 5 or 6 rrd files, each with</font></div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="lucida console" size="2">10 or so data sources.</font></div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="lucida console" size="2"></font> </div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="lucida console" size="2">To reset or blow away stored data for a given data source, I delete</font></div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="lucida console" size="2">the rrd file it is in and recreate it.</font></div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="lucida console" size="2">This throws away all data saved for everything in the rrd file.</font></div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="lucida console" size="2"></font> </div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="lucida console" size="2">This is, of course, sub-optimal.</font></div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="lucida console" size="2"></font> </div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="lucida console" size="2">What I want is the ability to throw away all data for a given data source.</font></div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="lucida console" size="2"></font> </div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="lucida console" size="2">Is there a way to reach in and set all the rows for a data source to UNKNOWN?</font></div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="lucida console" size="2"></font> </div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="lucida console" size="2">The only way I can think to achieve this level of granularity is to</font></div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="lucida console" size="2">put each DS in its own rrd file, which seems inefficient.</font></div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="lucida console" size="2"></font> </div>
<div dir="ltr"><font face="lucida console" size="2">Any suggestions?</font></div>
