[rrd-users] How to get LAST, AVG, MAX data (that are in graph legend) in text/string format?

[deele]

Sorry for such a newbie question, but the thing is, I am using Cacti, and I
want to make automatic reports about traffic-type graphs, that include two
values from graphs - Inbound Max and Outbound Max. I just don't understand
how to get just those two values out of RRD. It would be easier for me, to
make OCR trace on graph image, to extract those numbers :D
/usr/local/bin/rrdtool graph - \

--start=1292836870 \
--end=1295508070 \
--title='Example graph title' \
--rigid \
--base=1000 \
--height=120 \
--width=500 \
--alt-autoscale \

CDEF:cdefa=a,8,* \
CDEF:cdefe=b,8,* \
AREA:cdefa#7EE600FF:"IN"  \
GPRINT:cdefa:LAST:" Current\:%8.2lf %s"  \
GPRINT:cdefa:AVERAGE:"Average\:%8.2lf %s"  \
GPRINT:cdefa:MAX:"Maximum\:%8.2lf %s\n"  \
LINE1:cdefe#4668E4FF:"OUT"  \
GPRINT:cdefe:LAST:"Current\:%8.2lf %s"  \
GPRINT:cdefe:AVERAGE:"Average\:%8.2lf %s"  \
GPRINT:cdefe:MAX:"Maximum\:%8.2lf %s\n" 
Maybe, there is a way to do that with FETCH or something, but I need only
those values that are GPRINT in graph syntax above.
The last resort, as I understand, is to FETCH data from both RRD's, and
determine largest number for each of RRD's, compare them and output only
one, which is largest (needed for my report calculations).

PS: It would be great, if such a function could be pre-built in rrdtool
graph (reading actual data from image) and maybe, achieved using image
headers or EXIF (or other image/file info storage), reading both of them is
easy.
