Today you sent me mail regarding rrd question:

*> Dear friends,
*> 
*> I have the follwing problem, we got the error message:
*> 	ERROR: writing rrd
*> when the rrd database is filled up
*> it will not accept any input no more
*> 
*> I created the database as follows:
*> 	rrdtool create test.rrd --step 300 \
*> 	DS:testf:GAUGE:1200:U:U \
*> 	RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:12
*> I enter with the update command, every 5 minutes a value, but after one hour
*> it is over and out
*> 
*> can anybody help me in telling me what I do wrong?

could it be that you don't have write permission to the rrd? RRDs do NOT
fill up ...

cheers
