[rrd-users] Predicting based on averages?

[Michael Wells]

Hi,

I get charged for traffic on my server, so I'd like to keep track of
what my data transfer is. I get charged once a month.

I'd like to use rrdtool to tell me what the data transferred in a month
*will be*, given a counter for network I/O.

I was wondering whether it's possible to keep a running average of
traffic rates, and multiply this number by the number of seconds in a
month. If I plot this product as a gauge I should get a moving estimate
of the month's data transfer (AND on the last day of the month, it
should be correct!). :-)

Any ideas? 

Cheers
Michael
