[rrd-users] Re: Directory names

 PERFECT that did it!

So this DEF is now working fine:
	DEF:sa_1="c\:\\directory\\sa_1.rrd":roundtrip:MAX

Thanks.

Hi,

A couple of things to note:

- You would need to escape the back slashes

- You have a ':' in the file name. You would need to escape the ':' to make
sure that rrdtool does not take that as the separator in the command.

HTH,
Praveen.
