If you know MRTG, you can think of RRDtool as a reimplementation of
|
|
|
|
MRTGs graphing and logging features. Magnitudes faster and more flexible
|
|
|
|
than you ever thought possible

RRD is the Acronym for Round Robin Database. RRD is a system to store
|
|
|
|
and display time-series data (i.e. network bandwidth, machine-room
|
|
|
|
temperature, server load average). It stores the data in a very compact
|
|
|
|
way that will not expand over time, and it presents useful graphs by
|
|
|
|
processing the data to enforce a certain data density. It can be used
|
|
|
|
either via simple wrapper scripts (from shell or Perl) or via frontends
|
|
|
|
that poll network devices and put a friendly user interface on it
