[rrd-users] Re: Consolidation many RRDs to 1 RRD

[Chan Chi Hung]

Hi Richard,

I tried to create a Tcl script w/ tdom extension (www.tdom.org) to parse 
all the rrd dumps and consolidate the results. It is slow and not 
efficient in this way. The rrd graph with DEF and CDEF is very fast and 
efficient in processing and summarising all these info.

It may be the XPath queries that take up most of the computation time 
and I do not have time to explore further. What I did now is to that 
while I am collecting the data and feeding them into rrd, I do some 
calculation and consolidate the result in a new rrd file.
