[rrd-users] Storing Static + Dynamic data in rrd

Can we have rrd files per domain (rather than per e-mail id) ?. As a total i may have 10K domains, and if each domain has 5 email, i will end up with 50K files. So instead of that, can i have rrd files per domain (10K) and store the user information and user data within it ?.

Is this possible ?


Regards,
Shameem
