[rrd-users] Re: rrdtool graph timeout

[Paul Klinaftakis]

so in order to store 365 days what would you suggest me to do?

the thing is that everything was fine for 3 or 4 months and then suddenly
the yearly graph
went boom ... is this because I was only storing for approx 158 days?

thanks alex for your response
