[rrd-users] Re: ERROR min must be less than max?

[Tobias Oetiker]

Today you sent me mail regarding [rrd-users] ERROR min must be less than max?:

*> While trying to create a new rrd like this:
*> 
*> rrdtool create questions.rrd -s 300\
*> 	DS:questions:COUNTER:600:U:U\
*> 	RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:1200\
*> 	RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:12:8760
*> 
*> I get this error:
*> ERROR: min must be less than max in DS definition.
*> 
*> I have tried using a GAUGE DS, but i get the same error?  The create I
*> have appears to be a 'text-book' example.  If I specify a min and max
*> value then all is good and i get my rrd without any reported errors.  I
*> also tried this as a min:max = "0:U" and I get the same error.
*> This is on HPUX10.20, gcc-2.95.1.  This is rrd version 1.0.10 the same
*> version that is causing core dumps while using graph.  Maybe the two are
*> related?  If there is any additional info you need to help let me know.
*> 
*> If i have messed the create syntax up, forgive me, i've looked over it
*> several times and compared it to the examples in the tutorial.

the syntax is fine and it works on solaris (this is what I just had handy to
test) I suspect we have an issue with IEEE floating point support here,
did the configure script run happily ? 

cheers
