Hi Rafal,




I would say that it depends on your events and the results 

which you wish to get. 




I am counting my irregular events out of rrd's and store the 

current totals in rrd's after the intervals of my interest. The 

graphs are self-explanatory and provide good understandings 

of the behavior of the monitored process.




In other application I store occurrences of the events in the 

standard intervals (300 sec.) - may be they will be mostly 

zeroes - and calculate your desired frequencies over any 

intervals chosen by the end user.  




Everything depends on the nature of your events and results

desired by you.




Regards,

Leos.

Hi,



Can rrdtool be used for measuring frequency of irregular events? I mean the 
updates would occur in irregular patterns and I'd like to measure the 
frequency of them / number of occurrences per some base interval.







Best regards

RG
