[rrd-users] rrdtool not working at all

[Dan Gahlinger]

Ok this is getting really frustrating, can someone tell me why this doesn't 
work:

rrdtool create host1users.rrd --step 300 DS:host1users:GAUGE:600:0:50 
RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:600 RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:600 RRA:MAX:0.5:1:600 RRA:MAX:0.5:1:600

then:

rrdtool update host1users.rrd N:18
rrdtool update host1users.rrd N:20
rrdtool update host1users.rrd N:22
rrdtool update host1users.rrd N:25

do the updates over a period of 10 minutes, yet rrdtool dump always shows "NaN"

Why??

and yes, I've tried these as well:

rrdtool create host1users.rrd --step 300 DS:host1users:GAUGE:600:0:50 
RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:600 RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:600 RRA:MAX:0.5:50:600 
RRA:MAX:0.5:50:600
rrdtool create host1users.rrd --step 300 DS:host1users:GAUGE:600:0:50 
RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:50:600 RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:50:600 RRA:MAX:0.5:50:600 
RRA:MAX:0.5:5:600
rrdtool create host1users.rrd --step 300 DS:host1users:GAUGE:600:U:U 
RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:600 RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:600 RRA:MAX:0.5:1:600 RRA:MAX:0.5:1:600

nothing seems to make any difference, what's going on?
can someone else test this and make sure I'm not just going crazy ? :)

Dan.
