[rrd-users] Re: Meaning of time with gauge not well-defined in docs

[Shailesh_A at intelenetglobal.com]

Hi All,

Can anybody guide me to a link or a document which specifies how to read
the log file created by MRTG to display the monitored data which is
available on the graphs plotted by MRTG?

My company is using MRTG and we want to pick up only specific data from
MRTG and store it in an MS Excel sheet.
For this purpose I want to write a small program which can do the same.

Can anybody guide me on this as well?

Thanks for all your help and support.

Thanks and Regards

Hi Anthony,

your assumption is correct ... if you can suggest wording that
would make this clear to the reader I will be glad to integrate
this into the documentation pack ...

cheers
