[rrd-users] Strange behavior when using CDEF to divide twovalues

[Wesley PA4WDH]

Hi Alex,

I don't really know what's going on, but ...
... changing the DS name from COUNT to NUMBER did not change anything.
... changing the VNAME from COUNT to NUMBER did produce the right result.
... changing the VNAME to NUMBER but keep the DS name "COUNT" produces the same result (now available at http://ernstagn.home.xs4all.nl/rrd ).

So the problem is in the VNAME, is COUNT some kind of reserved word ?

Best regards,
Wesley
