Don't use fetch for this, unless you also need the time.

rrdtool graph will do what you want, by using PRINT in stead of GPRINT.
Just don't use any graphing elements.

Examples as in the tutorial, except you don't use LINE, AREA, STACk
nor GPRINT.

Make sure to specify the right time for both start and end time. This
is a whole multiple of the step time, multiplied by the number of PDPs
per row.

Use MAX in your DEF if possible, and use MAX in your PRINT anyway.

You need the last, or do you need the largest?
