[rrd-developers] Back in town, and Re: SUM Consolidation Function in RRDTool

[Alex van den Bogaerdt]

Hi there,

After being off list for quite a while, I'm back and planning
to stay for a while again.

Let's start by promoting rrdtool version 1.2 which, as you know,
is in its release-candidate stage:

Hi Sebastian,

Please have a look at the 1.2 release candidate and check VDEF TOTAL.

In the documentation:

   TOTAL
           Returns the rate from each defined time slot multiplied with the
           step size.  This can for instance return total bytes transfered
           when you have logged bytes per second. The time component returns
           the amount of seconds

           Example: "VDEF:total=mydata,TOTAL"

It seems to do exactly what you ask for.

cheers,
Alex
