[rrd-users] Re: The script is here, to view actual data transfer in your RRD graphs

Well considering calculating total bandwith for a day is just a glorified
version of 

 rrdtool graph test.png \
-s 1d \
 DEF:A=interface.rrd:InOctets:AVERAGE\
 DEF:B=interface.rrd:OutOctets:AVERAGE\
 CDEF:TOTAL=A,B,+,86400,* \
 print:TOTAL:AVERAGE:"%5.3lf"

 I don¹t think it is such a huge deal.  And RRDTool has no way of generating
dynamic times for specific dates that I know of (meaning if you view a graph
on Mar 3rd at 3:34 PM and you want to see total transfer since March 1
00:00) you need to prepopulate that stat time number with a script.

 just curious what your script does for $25, and if it handles knowing the
start times of each month to calculate running totals for the month for
people who say, pay a monthly bill at an ISP based on data transfer and need
numbers based on the first day of the month at midnite.
