[rrd-users] change max_ds_name_length

[Ruttenberg, Tanya]

What do you mean modify at compile time?  Pardon my ignorance.  I
thought that meant to change some parameter in some source file.
Apparently not. :-)

I don't mind if it's incompatible with existing files.  This is a new
installation.

Hi Tanya,

you can modify the max_ds_name length define at compile time. The
problem is that this will render your rrd incompatible with your
existing rrd files.
