[rrd-users] Re: Time issue with graphs

[Dirk Bulinckx]

This is an example from what I do within in app:
	C:\data\RRD\src\tool_release\rrdtool.exe update
c:\data\rrd\database\sa_1.rrd 1067947382:1.6

The timestamp is "created" by doing:
	DateDiff("s", "1/1/1970", Now)
were the VB NOW function the current date/time gives.

Now gives me now: Tue/04/11/2003 2:12:03 PM 
Which is the correct time/date in my timezone.

And what time do you use in your program? What time do you use with 
rrdtool? That is where you must investigate. No one but you can tell how

you handle time issues in your software.

But getting the time wrong is a common problem in software so it must be

made rather confusing.
