[rrd-users] Re: amount of data rrd files can store

[Edgar Humberto Parra]

Hi guys, I have a question from one of my customers.

I use Report Gateway of Spectrum, which uses rrdtool as the graphic
tool. The client is asking me, if with this tool, he can have reports
with an accumulated of 2 years or more. Because I have in Report
Gateway, the possibility to display reports for a given device, daily,
weekly, monthly and yearly, but if I am capturing data, let's say, for 3
years, and I select the date range with this parameter (data 3 years
ago), the data will display? Or there is a limit for the storage of this
info in rrd files?

Regards,

month

We do the same thing here but with different times 8am -> 12pm and
example of this is:
  DEF:inbytes=$dbfile:ds1:AVERAGE,
  DEF:outbytes=$dbfile:ds0:AVERAGE,
  CDEF:inbits=inbytes,8,*,
  CDEF:outbits=outbytes,8,*,
  CDEF:inpeakbits=TIME,86400,%,28800,LT,UNKN,inbits,IF,
  CDEF:outpeakbits=TIME,86400,%,28800,LT,UNKN,outbits,IF,

Should help point you in the right direction. You'd need to add a GT
check as well to discard 10pm -> 12pm.
