[rrd-users] Re: strange behavior?

[Serge Maandag]

Within a week your first graph will become blocky too.
The default setup of mrtg is to keep 

- 5 minute samples for a day, 
- 30 minute samples for a week 
- 2 hour samples for a month and
- 1 day samples for a year.

So if you graph the past week, there will be 30 minute samples
available.
But if you graph the week before, there will be only 2 hour samples
available. That's why it's blocky.

Try graphing a week that's more than a month ago. You'll get 1 day
samples, now that is blocky.

The solution is to recreate the rrd's by hand and make sure they keep 5
minute samples for more than a day.

        Hi.
  I try make graphics from my cisco.mrtg.log.
When i start rrdtool with that command line i get nice graph (1.png).
Time in -s - 06-10-02; time in -e - 06-17-02

rrdtool graph 1.png \
    -s 1023652800 -e 1024257600 \ 
    -v b/s  -a PNG \              
    DEF:in=test.rrd:ds0:AVERAGE \ 
    DEF:out=test.rrd:ds1:AVERAGE \
    AREA:in#00a000:Input \        
    AREA:out#ff0000:Output \

But when i type that command i got graph 2.png.
Time in -s - 06-03-02; time in -e - 06-10-02

rrdtool graph 2.png \
    -s 1023048000 -e 1023652800 \ 
    -v b/s  -a PNG \              
    DEF:in=test.rrd:ds0:AVERAGE \ 
    DEF:out=test.rrd:ds1:AVERAGE \
    AREA:in#00a000:Input \        
    AREA:out#ff0000:Output \      

Please tell me where my mistake?
How can i get graph 2.png like 1.png?

I convert cisco.mrtg.log in test.rrd whith log2rrd.pl
