[rrd-developers] rrdcache Update success response..

[Steve Shipway]

This is not actually a complete success message, a complete success doesnt have the 'errors,' prefix.  The initial '0' is the status code -- 0 for "OK,no more lines follow".

The 'errors, enqueued' message is a 'partial success' message; possibly it thinks you sent two values and only one was correctly enqueued (check for multiple or trailing spaces in the command you sent which could be taken as a badly-formatted value)

Subject: [rrd-developers] rrdcache Update success response..

On a successful update you get the following response.

     0 errors, enqueued 1 value(s).

The problem i see with this response is that if you carve up the
response using perl (or any other language) using a whitespace as a
delimiter you will end up with the following...

        status = 0
        message = errors, enqueued 1 value(s).

The problem i see here with this response is that the message indicates
there was errors even though i think what it's really trying to say was
0 errors.  The response should probably really say

0 0 errors, enqueued 1 value(s).
OR
0 no errors, enqueued 1 value(s).

maybe this is a bug?
