[rrd-users] Re: Importing data from ascii files.

[Wilks Jonathan-BJW002]

Trouble is, I tried that and I get the following message;

$ /usr/local/rrdtool/bin/rrdtool update testccase.rrd "996019200:7"
ERROR: illegal attempt to update using time 996019200 when last update time is 1004355231 (minimum one second step)

Should be easy to do, just add data at the right time stamps. Create an
rrd file that spans the right time period (two years for example). You should
then be able to "update" the rrd file with the "old" timestamps.

If you want to keep the data around forever, then you need to be careful
about making sure that the "round robin" doesn't end before you want
it to (make sure that your rrd file is big or long enough).
