[rrd-users] Re: NEWBIE Question about RRDUPDATE

[SWATTON, JEANINE]

Make sure for each snmpget, only one value is returned.  You may have to
do a chomp or something in your script.  I believe ifInOctets should
only return 1 value.  

Rather than updating the database, execute an snmpget for each, and see
what it is returning.

Based on your error messages, the database was created to accept 2
readings, and apparently, it is getting 6 readings.  Therefore, it will
not update anything.
