[rrd-users] SOLUTION - Re: Very Large RRD files

[Mark Smith]

Just an update for the archives..  (I hate searching an archive, finding 
people who had the same problem I'm having but they never posted the 
solution..  :)

All the suggestions of using the Perl Module RRDs worked beautifully. 
Note that RRDp does NOT work.  Apparently, that still feeds onto a 
command line somewhere.

(Tobi:  I do use BASH..  :)

Thank you everyone for your help!  :)
